One of his senior advisers, Jim Dyke went on MSNBC to make his boss look good in the current tiff with Hillary Clinton. Giuliani took out a full page ad to blast the Senator and Hillary just smacked his egotistical ass down. The whole scene is being conjured by Rudy to raise dough out of Petraeus report and the reactions from Democrats, MoveOn.org, etc. Crooks and Liars has more:
She’s not even a major talk show host, but Contessa made Jim Dyke, (an advisor to Rudy) look like a fool. Giuliani is trying to fund raise and blur the problems for the GOP over the Iraq war by targeting MoveOn and Gen. Petraeus, but seemingly unknown to his camp, 52% of Americans have little or no confidence in the Petraeus report. (vid is a little out of sync.

Brewer:…so basically Hillary is lining up with more than half of Americans polled.
Dyke: Um, well for one thing it doesn’t make it OK to call him a liar.
Brewer:…She didn’t call him a liar..Wait, just to be clear here, she didn’t call him a liar.
Dyke: Contessa, that’s my interpretation and you can interpret how ever you want.
OK, if that’s the benchmark Jim, the sky is green. They lie and lie and lie.
Hillary responds to the children:
“Rudy Giuliani is dropping in the polls and is unable to defend his own support for George Bush’s failed war. Instead of distorting Senator Clinton’s record in the campaign’s first attack ad, the Mayor should tell voters why he thinks sticking with the Bush Iraq strategy makes sense. The country wants change and while Hillary Clinton is focused ending the war, Mayor Giuliani is playing politics.”
