RUDI THE RED COAT

I just so happened to wake up this morning and visit the website for the New York Post. As the website loaded, I saw one of the most astonishing images in my life.

Former New York City Mayor and current Republican Presidential candidate, Rudi Giuliani, announced that he is backing the Boston Red Sox in the World Series.

My jaw dropped upon reading this.

How could this former New York City Mayor be sporting the logo of the biggest rival to his "beloved" New York Yankees? This is the man that has a designated seat at Yankee Stadium waiting for him on the side of the home dugout, whenever he wants to attend a game. He is also the man that led NYC through its darkest days after 9/11. And when the Yankees are down in the 9th inning who appears on the scoreboard in center field screaming "Let's Go Yankees!"?

That's right Rudi Giuliani does.

Now he is just another wagon jumper, trying riding the hottest ticket to the White House. After all every politician does it. He's just trying to get people to vote for him, but personally I think he is going to lose a lot of votes due to this. He is becoming reminiscent of John Kerry in his bid for the White House in 2004. (Does the term "flip-flopper" occur to anyone?)

At first I wasn't sure what to think about the situation. But as a die hard New York Yankees fan, I couldn't let Rudi get away with this one, I needed to rip into him a little bit and give him a peace of mind. Especially because Joe Torre has already abandoned ship and with the futures of such All-Stars as, Mariano Rivera, Jorge Posada, Andy Pettite, and Alex Rodriguez, in doubt, due to free agency.

I hope Rudi loses his personal seat at Yankee Stadium and they never, EVER put him on the big screen in center field again. The man is a fraud and a disgrace to the Yankee Empire!

If you're voting Republican this upcoming election, Vote Duncan Hunter for President in 2008!
