Giuliani won't run for president in 2012
Source: MSNBC

WOODBURY, N.Y. — Rudy Giuliani says he won't be a candidate for president next year.

The Republican former New York mayor told a gathering of Long Island business executives on Tuesday that it's too late for him to join the field of candidates competing to challenge President Barack Obama.

...snip...

Giuliani says Romney appeals to the party's head while Texas Gov. Rick Perry appeals to its heart.

Giuliani says that Romney's shifts on issues like abortion, gay marriage and universal health care will probably be a problem for him in the campaign.

37. Nosferatu can wait that long:



And his swan song from 2008:

Nosferatu...
Sung to the tune of ''Desperado''
(by Don Henley/Glen Frey)

Nosferatu,
Why don't you come to your senses
Ben talking nonsenses, for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
say you are Mr. 9/11,
but you are screwing the victims, you villain
we all know it somehow


Don't you dress like the queen of diamonds boy
Far right will beat you if they're able
You know that finding new wives is always your best bet
But till then your gay friends will set a place at their table
Far right caught you there, they would beat you to death


Nosferatu,
Oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your vain and your hunger, they're drivin' you on
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just something worth squashin'
Your prison is waitin' and Kerik will welcome you home...


The rest:

The good old days of him getting his name in the news just by uttering "September 11th" are over.

30. since the repuke fascist fuks are totally undeveloped in the head & heart departments -
Caligiuliani is missing his last opportunity for filling the void up their sociopathic asses - where they do all their thinking, feeling & living.

hopefully, by 2016, the fascist sub-species would have been flushed down the sewers for another generation at least, by the American public. Along with this homeless-tormenting, totalitarian freak.
