Giuliani is by far the most formidable, and most dangerous, Republican candidate...

So says Glenn Greenwald, who seems not to like Rudy Giuliani very much:

As this excellent and comprehensive article documents, Giuliani is an "authoritarian narcissist" -- plagued by an unrestrained prosecutor's mentality -- who loves coercive government power (especially when vested in his hands) and hates dissent above all else. He would make George Bush look like an ardent lover of constitutional liberties. He is probably the absolute worst and most dangerous successor to George Bush under the circumstances, but his political talents and prospects for winning are being severely underestimated.

Reading through the above carefully, I get the impression Greenwald thinks he has found his new calling. While he sounds especially irate about Giuliani dressing in drag (discussed infra), I think the real problem is that he thinks Rudy can beat Hillary.

I have a feeling this may be why Greenwald has moved onward and upward to join the Hillary forces at Salon.com!

Sheesh.

No one's even been nominated, but it already feels like an election.

And it's not too early to diagnose a clear case of Giuliani Derangement Syndrome!
