Giuliani Compares Clinton to McGovern — Rudy’s Man in ‘72

Rudy Giuliani, the former New York City mayor seeking the GOP nomination, compared Senator Hillary Clinton (D-New York) to the 1972 Democratic nominee, George McGovern.

“It’s interesting that Hillary is taking something from the George McGovern playbook,” Giuliani said in Manchester, N.H., likening her idea to the former South Dakota senator’s proposal to send $1,000 to every U.S. resident.

Ideas that, in 1972, compelled Giuliani to vote for McGovern.

Rudy also thinks that Hillary will only win Massachusetts against him, like McGovern did against Nixon.

Rudy is wrong.

Yeah, Ryan Sager at Latest Politics reamed Giuliani on his laughable electoral college maps.

He said California and New York were swing states if he were the nominee.
