...night before the Florida primary, Rudy Giuliani was still vowing to shock pollsters: "I've been doing the impossible all my life!" He certainly did the impossible, plummeting from front runner to also-ran in a few weeks, finishing a distant third behind Mitt Romney and John McCain. And just as John Edwards, a sunny personality who ran as an angry rabble-rouser, was departing the Democratic field, America's mayor, an angry man who ran as Mr. Sunshine, was endorsing McCain...

But at the Orange County Republican dinner Saturday night, Rudy made a telling quip: "People pay a lot of money to spend the month of Florida in January."
