K-Lo Jumps Off The Romney Horse, Rides The Rudy Pony

Well, not quite. But she's getting there.

A friend of mine was at a fundraiser for Rudy Giuliani in Los Angeles last night. His walkaway thought: “[Rudy] might have a tough time in the primary but he will crush in the general.”

Said friend says of last night: “I have to tell you the man is very impressive. When he talks about the war on terror he does so more clearly than anyone I have heard including the President. He doesn't bash the President ever and this was LA where he could really get away with it.”

Rudy did an immigration bit that was “to the right of everyone else except maybe Tancredo. He talked about immigration in terms of national security. He said we needed to revamp our entire system so that we can get good people. He also said that if the twelve million already here expected to get any type of citizenship they would have to prove that they could read, write, and speak English.”

Okay, well, that's nice enough. But is there some way he can convince the Republican right he won't undermine their social conservativism, even while not completely repudiating his famous social liberalism?

There just might be:

A reader points out this Rudy Giuliani quote from November 5, 2006: "Supreme Court Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Alito are models of what judges should be in this country."
