(Video) Giuliani in 1989: There must be public funding for abortion

Oops.  It looks like Rudolph Giuliani will have an even tougher time getting the '08 Republican nomination (via Hotline Blog):

GIULIANI: "There must be public funding for abortions for poor women.  We cannot deny any woman the right to make her own decision about abortion because she lacks resources.  I have also stated that I disagree with President Bush's veto last week of public funding for abortion."

So much for gaining the respect of Republican voters.  I know, I know -- Giuliani is way ahead of McCain and Romney in just about every poll there is.  But when you couple this story with the drag queen footage of Giuliani that surfaced, all you have to do is wait until just two months before Iowa when the GOP establishment begins hitting Giuliani with everything they have.  Giuliani will be political dead meat.

Mike Huckabee and Sam Brownback will be looked at closely by conservatives as fresh alternatives to McCain, Romney and Giuliani.
