I think 9/11 leadership will still have selling power in 7 years. After all, Eisenhower was elected President 7 years after WWII ended.
I think it would still have selling power to an extent, but not that much that far down the road. Anyway the point I was making is yeah he did win NYC twice, but boh times had much more to do with the weakness of his opponent than anything he did. Guliani would be going up against a much stronger candidate in Edwards than he did againstt Dinkins & Messinger. You put someone half as strong as Edwards on the Dem ticket for NYC mayor in 93 or 97 Rudy loses.
