If 9/11 had never happened, do you think Rudy Giuliani would even have a chance of running for the American presidency in 2008?

Voters are lining up behind Rudolph Giuliani, who became 'America's mayor' on Sept 11, 2001. But many New Yorkers remember the mayor before that day with less affection. New Yorkers may have enjoyed Giuliani's success at taming the untamed city but are quick to recall the combative mayor who insulted constituents, bullied opponents and made crossing the street in the middle of the block a punishable offense. That's not to mention his multiple marriages, a divorce so acrimonious a judge ordered Giuliani's mistress out of the mayor's mansion and a son so estranged he plans to play golf instead of campaign for his father. Nevertheless, as he builds on the reputation earned guiding New York after the World Trade Center attack, polls show the moderate Republican leading in the race for the party's nomination for the U.S. presidential election in 2008.
