Giuliani and Santorum Rudy Giuliani is ramping up his web presence - ostensibly for the benefit of the raft of Republican candidates he's supporting in this year's congressional elections. From a recent "Dear Friend" email calling attention to the launch of his new site:

The candidates he's helped will no doubt be gratified that their political benefactor has yet another tool at his disposal. But if Giuliani were thinking about running for something himself - say, in 2008 - the photo gallery provides a pretty neat encapsulation of his sales pitch: loyal Reagan Republican (with Ronald and Nancy), friend of Israel (with Ariel Sharon), moderate ally of not-so-moderate conservatives (with Santorum), international statesman (with Gorbachev), 9/11 hero and, not insignificantly, loving husband.
