Clay Shaw for Giuliani

The Buzz is that Clay Shaw is throwing his support to Rudy Giuliani and will be with him tomorrow on Boca. In addition to all the ex-New Yorkers in Shaw's old congressional district, they have in common Karen Unger, Rudy's senior Florida adviser who who has helped run previous Shaw campaigns too.

Mr. Romney, the Republican candidate from Massachusetts by way of Michigan and Utah who enjoys a milkshake at the end of a long day, stopped by a staging area for a Martin Luther King Birthday parade here. In his dress shirt and tie, and with his unwavering smile, he walked over and posed for photographs with a group of black youngsters. Putting his arm around a teenage girl, he waved to the cameras and offered, “Who let the dogs out?” He added a tepid “woof woof.”

Somewhere, the Baha Men, the Bahamian group whose 2000 song the candidate was referencing, must have been shuddering.

Kevin Madden, one of Mr. Romney’s campaign boyz on the bus, said the candidate had been joking around and had responded to someone who asked, “Who let you out?”

Later, Mr. Romney admired a child’s gold necklace and said, “Oh, you’ve got some bling-bling here.”

That's a hilarious story thanks for sharing. Nice to know he has a sense of humor. Not sure what that has to do with Clay Shaw and Giuliani but still a funny story.

Who knew Clay Shaw was still around!

Wow, what kind of lunatic with any ounce of self-preservation would endorse Giuli when he's 4th in the polls? At least he may have a chance to actually beat Ron Paul in Florida.

Giuliani 'ran like a coward on 9/11'

Families of firefighters killed in the Sept. 11 terror attacks on the World Trade Center rallied in Orlando Tuesday in anticipation of the state's upcoming Republican primary. Unfortunately for Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, the firefighters are not in his corner.

"We want America to know that [the Giuliani campaign] is lying to America and to the American pubic," said Jim Riches, a deputy chief in the New York Fire Department, "telling all of Florida that the New York City Fire Department backs him, when that's another lie."

Firefighters and their families vowed to dog the former New York mayor at all of his Florida campaign stops because the state figures prominently in Giuliani's big-state primary strategy. The protesters think that Giuliani was aware that firefighters who responded to the World Trade Center attack were carrying defective radios and did not hear the order to evacuate.

"He didn't prepare us before, during, or after," says Riches.

Giuliani has campaigned strongly on his leadership during the attacks on New York, claiming he is the best suited to prevent an "Islamic terrorist war against us." But the firefighters were quick to question that courage.

"Yeah, the decision he made was, which direction he was going to run," says Riches. "And he ran north, and that's all he did."

The Giuliani campaign labeled the display a misleading, partisan attack. The former mayor is also emphasizing his ability to deal with the economy, distancing himself from the 9/11 pitch.

Maybe a person who actually endorses someone for the strange reason they actually support them...and not for future political gain.

Another "loser" for Rudy. Shaw got his a#@$ handed to him by losing his seat to Klein, even though he was in line for a leadership role in the house. It tells you how much Shaw was disliked by his district.

Ha ha ha. A new Insider Advantage poll, without Thompson as a choice, has McCain in 3rd behind Romney and Giuli. Ha ha ha.
