Question Could Giuliani get sunk for an extramarital affair, just like Bubba?

Analysis: Queries Giuliani doesn't want | Newsweek Politics | Newsweek.com
Quote:
The records show Giuliani making his first trip to the Long Island community of Southampton, where Nathan had a condominium, from Aug. 31 to Sept. 1, 1999 _ well before the former mayor acknowledged the breakdown of his second marriage in the spring of 2000. Giuliani and Nathan have refused to say when their romance began.

.....

Eight of Giuliani's 11 trips outside New York City were not on his official schedule, and reporters who asked about the mayor's absences as his second marriage failed were told he was spending time with his son and golfing.

The New York Post reported later in 2000 that neighbors had seen Giuliani canoodling with Nathan at her condominium the prior summer, his stays so long some asked members of his security detail to turn off the engines of their idling vehicles.
This shit is dynamite. It's got some corruption implications in it as well (read the whole article for that).

I honestly don't believe rudy ever had a chance. This article is just icing on the cake. Something tells me that this won't be the last we see of rudy's indiscretions. His nomination was sunk with his beliefs on abortion from the beginning.

I always thought Nathan was a boys name so I was super excited in thinking it was a gay affair… too bad it wasn’t… oh well. This is good enough for me. Personally, I think sex scandals hold too much weight in the political arena. (I’ll read the stuff about corruption later.)

She must have had cruel parents to name her Nathan.

Is it her last name? it refers to Giuliani by his last name, could be the same for her.

It was about perjury, not the affair itself.

What Clinton went through was more about hypocrisy more than anything else. Leave it to many of the same hypocrites to think it'll be okay for Rudy to have had an affair.
Yeah, go ahead and bomb me with "No! It was because he lied!". To that, I say "bullshit!".
