The Great Courtship

CONS: Giuliani supports both abortion rights and gay rights, two positions that are considered anathema to evangelicals. Ditto for his advocacy of tougher gun-control laws. Add to that whispers about Rudy's two failed marriages--including not-so-veiled criticism last week from Mitt Romney's wife, Ann--and it's an uphill climb for the former mayor. So far, his campaign has made little effort to change minds-- seemingly putting its bets on moderate Republicans and independents to clinch the nomination. But will this maverick strategy win the primary?
