...Romney is definitely the most blue-blooded and aristocratic of all candidates, and has shown a penchant for flip-flopping as the political wind changes, just as the greedy Veruca constantly changed her mind about what she wanted. The loud, brash, and hypercompetitive former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani most resembles Violet Beauregaurde. Consistently exaggerating his record when talking about “cleaning up New York City” and obsessively mentioning 9/11 in nearly every speech, his pride mirrors Violet’s, who embellished her own accomplishments in the hopes of intimidating the other children.

...Fortunately for Giuliani, Republicans nationally and in New Hampshire are divided on the question of whether strong leadership or moral character is the most important quality in a President. Giuliani draws high levels of support among G.O.P. voters who are most concerned about national-security issues, and that describes almost half of Republicans nationally.
