Surely it is time that you acknowledged that selecting Rudy Giuliani over Osama Bin Laden in 2001 was a mistake and damaged your reputation as the news magazine of record. I expect TIME to provide me with timely information on influential people and forces in the world, as odious as they may be. You blinked in 2001 and sided with the proselytizers of the American Way.

And Giuliani is not very far away in New York and the northeast, so that's why if we are in fourth place, we are still in the game. Maybe we will do better than that, but we may not. I think we have good solid support in New Hampshire with the people who are supporting us. But clearly it is not as widespread...
