Rudy Giuliani, in addition to being an unqualified nutjob, does not have the judgment to be president.

A federal grand jury has voted to indict former New York City Police
Commissioner Bernard Kerik on charges stemming from the acceptance of
free rent and apartment renovations, tax evasion and lying on his
application for the job as head of the Department of Homeland Security,
two federal sources and a source involved in the defense told ABC News.

What could we expect from (shudder) a Giuliani cabinet? Mob bosses running Health and Human Services? Rapists running the Defense Department? It’s all on the table.

Despite evidence showing that Rudy Giuliani knew about Bernard Kerik’s
ethical problems and still promoted his once-close friend throughout
his career, Rudy astonishingly continues to claim ignorance. As Kerik
prepares to surrender to federal authorities tomorrow for tax fraud,
corruption and conspiracy charges, Giuliani has yet to explain why he
shepherded Kerik’s career while an ethical cloud hung over his head.

“Rudy Giuliani’s tough-on-crime mantra is laughable given that he
promoted Bernard Kerik throughout his career while knowing about his
ethical problems,” said DNC Communications Director Karen Finney. “If
Rudy really had no knowledge of Kerik’s mob ties, then he is admitting
to a level of incompetence that surely will worry voters. Voters are
going to question Rudy Giuliani’s judgment given his long time support
for a man who is being investigated for mob ties.”
