Giuliani is rooting for the Taliban, almost

Giuliani Says He's Backing the Red Sox!! WTF is getting into him? The red sox are almost like the Taliban - haters of NYC and all that we stand for.

BOSTON (AP)  -- Sounds like a baseball flip-flop.

Rudy Giuliani, a lifelong New York Yankees fan, said Tuesday he's pulling for their most hated rivals, the Boston Red Sox, to win the World Series over the Colorado Rockies.

"I'm rooting for the Red Sox,'' the Republican presidential contender said in response to a question, sparking applause at the Boston restaurant where he was picking up a local endorsement.

"I'm an American League fan, and I go with the American League team, maybe with the exception of the Mets,'' he said. "Maybe that would be the one time I wouldn't because I'm loyal to New York.''

Giuliani's Yankees lost in the first round of the playoffs, then lost their manager when Giuliani's friend, Joe Torre, refused to accept a pay cut and walked away. Giuliani said the Yankees had "a great season.''

The former New York mayor said his declaration of temporary Red Sox loyalty was "not just because I'm here in Massachusetts.''

"In Colorado, in the next week or two, you will see, I will have the courage to tell the people of Colorado the same thing, that I am rooting for the Red Sox in the World Series,'' he said.

Indeed, if Giuliani was pandering, he miscalculated.

In the last presidential election, Colorado went with Republican President Bush, and recent history shows Massachusetts voters would sooner adopt Manhattan clam chowder as the state's official food than vote Republican in 2008.

You should feel ashamed to compare the Boston Red Sox to that. 

There shouldn't be anything wrong with him rooting for Boston.

Rudy cheering a baseball team is not as bad as Hillary saying we must negotiate and reach out to that Iranian midget.  And I think since Hillary wore the Yankee cap she gave the Yankees bad luck.  Before she came to NY they won championships.  She jinxed them and instead of the curse of the Bambino we have now the Curse of the Dykester.

It's a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. I don't like the Taliban analogy. There's a big difference between an archrival to a baseball team and an enemy of a nation.
