I do think Giuliani would be good for us even if he is not on our side, as he'd likely start a process of liberating the Republican Party from social conservative domination.

Al D'Amato endorsed Fred Thompson for president, but I don't know if that means Thompson is for Internet poker or not.

My concern with Giuliani is that he's pretty authoritarian in general. I wouldn't quite describe him as "Elliot Spitzer without the corruption scandal", but I don't know how much I trust him. Not sure on his views of Internet poker, either.

Here are some thoughts on freedom from Rudy:



"Freedom is not a concept in which people can do anything they want, be anything they can be. Freedom is about authority. Freedom is about the willingness of every single human being to cede to lawful authority a great deal of discretion about what you do."
-- Rudy Giuliani, in a 1994 speech
