Rudy Giuliani went to see the Yankee’s play this past Monday, in Yankee Stadium. During the game his picture was shown on the jumbotron a couple of times. The first time it was shown the crowd had a reaction, but no one could tell if they were chanting “Rudy, Rudy” or booing. The second time his image was shown was in the middle of Ronan Tynan singing “God Bless America.” The crowd made it very clear that they were not cheering for Giuliani, they were booing. No major papers that I can find have picked up the story, though MSNBC did report it on the air.
That’s gotta hurt. In your own city, at a sporting event. Over at Daily Kos Davefromqueens wrote an essay explaining why he believes Rudy was booed. He makes some good points along the way, and he’s giving a message that resonates with many. Rudy, are you getting the message? Your 9/11 hero rhetoric isn’t selling anymore.
