 Richard Milhous Giuliani

Michael Gerson, much cleverer writing on politics than on religion, offers what I take to be the basic insight about the 2008 Republian field: Rudy Giuliani is the second coming of Richard Nixon. Gerson's warning is directed at his fellow wingnuts, but they're not the only ones who need to hear it.

Update Ed Kilgore at The Democratic Strategist thinks Gerson's piece may be the opening salvo in a barrage by the religious and cultural right against the much-married mayor. I hope so.
