Senator Joe Biden came away with one of the more memorable lines from tonight's Democratic Presidential Debate on MSNBC when he took a shot at President Bush and went after Rudy Giuliani and his lack of qualification to be president.

Biden: "...And the irony is, Rudy Giuliani, probably the most under qualified person since George Bush to seek the presidency, is here - talking about any of the people here. Rudy Giuliani. I mean think about it, Rudy Giuliani, there's only three things he mentions in a sentence -- a noun and a verb and 9/11 and I mean, there's nothing else. There's nothing else."

Rudy Giuliani is rooting for the Red Sox!

BOSTON --In an act of baseball blasphemy, Yankee die-hard Rudy Giuliani said Tuesday he's pulling for the Boston Red Sox to win the World Series over the Colorado Rockies.

I'm rooting for the Red Sox," the Republican presidential contender said in response to a question, sparking applause at the Boston restaurant where he was picking up a local endorsement.

"I'm an American League fan, and I go with the American League team, maybe with the exception of the Mets," he said. "Maybe that would be the one time I wouldn't because I'm loyal to New York."...read on

This is baseball sacrilege! Maybe all these debates with Mitt Romney has rubbed off. I wonder how Randy Levine, (the embittered president of the Yankees who formerly worked for Rudy and has been receiving a lot of criticism for forcing Joe Torre out as manager) will explain this to Steinbrenner? They have practically built a shrine to Giuliani in the Bronx whenever he shows up to a game and now he's rooting for the Red Sox to win it all.

Steinbrenner treats him like royalty in the Bronx and Rudy knows how competitive the two teams are, so this is shocking. I mean, no true Yankee fan would ever root for Boston and visa versa. It's been called the best rivalry in sports for a reason. I have a ton of Red Sox friends and we always have a good time when the teams play, (It is just a game) but I tell you this is one flop I thought he'd never take and I hope the stadium faithful let him have it when he shows up next season....

Much has been made of the extreme Christian right faction of the Republican party attacking Rudy's candidacy. In a very funny exchange, the GOP master propagandist Sean Hannity---had on James Dobson for about 20 minutes and pathetically begged him to support the top tier GOP candidates for President. Dobson refused emphatically and finally questioned Sean's commitment to true moral values.

 Dobson: ...and I think by your supporting Giuliani and helping to get the nomination for him, you're about to see the contradiction of most of the things that you stand for.

Hannity: We're friends and we'll always be friends... 

James, James, James, you know Sean is a well paid puppet. Silly you. Dobson said that he can't trust Rudy and if he's elected President he would destroy the Fundie movement. (Well there is that.) He's only concerned with his power base so his priority in the '08 election is to still be able to fund-raise like mad and keep his fangs dug deep into the GOP.
