Do Rudy's Marriages Really Matter?
March 12, 2007
You can line up the issues with Giuliani: he's pro-choice, pro-gay rights, pro-gun control, etc. But the one that may really come back to bite him is the marriage issue. He's been married three times. I know, I know. Ronald Reagan was divorced. But Giuliani has the hat trick. (hockey term for 3 goals, sorry for the confusion) And the marriages have been a tad bit messy too. Will that do him in with social conservatives? How will that play in the Bible belt?

Republican strategists say Giuliani's troubled family relationships are likely to hinder his standing among conservatives who already have questions about his positions on social issues. They say the estrangement could raise a question in voters' minds: If Giuliani can't keep his family together, how will he keep the country together?
Here's some views from The Brody File mail bag.
"Failed marriages are signs of a character flaw that we don't need to see in someone who is seeking to be our President."
"Only two issues matter in '08: refocusing American resolve in the war on terror, and defeating Hillary Clinton. Giuliani is the only candidate who can do both."
