Vanity, thy name is Rudolph. Giuliani...
[I]f Giuliani turns out to be the best Republican for the job, the 2008 candidate for the GOP nomination said, "I could probably be talked into doing it."No one with a normal ego could even consider a run for President. Rudy wants to be talked into running.
Yeah, right, a groundswell of support will prove once and for all that Donald Trump and Chris Christie are mere pretenders to the asshole vote, that they remain not only a potent part of the Republican base but also now and forever Rudy's most gaseously effusive supporters.
Of course, the big media role in all this is clear too. They have Rudy's number in their cell phones, and he'll take their calls. Flattery goes both ways in the elite electronic village. Accountability? Not so much.
There is one small excuse for CNN giving Giuliani a platform. They can tell that there's not a credible Republican candidate yet in the race. Trotting out their old warhorses is just a way to vamp until ready and fill the vast desolate air time with some kind of familiar noise.
Signifying nothing.
