But he suggested he may ask them to give him a second look.

    The former New York City mayor, starting a swing through the first presidential primary state, said he would make up his mind about making another White House run by late summer.

    “We didn’t do it the right way” in the last presidential election, Mr. Giuliani told reporters before a speech at an Italian restaurant here. “We were spending so much time trying to raise money that we forgot about the politics,” he said, adding he didn’t spend enough time talking with voters directly.

    In 2007, Mr. Giuliani held a strong lead in many national polls testing the GOP presidential field. But while he made appearances in Iowa and New Hampshire—the first two states in the nominating process—Mr. Giuliani focused more on Florida and the so-called Super Tuesday states, which voted later.

    He just doesn’t get it. He should get some consultants who are more than yes-men and panderers, maybe then he’d hear the truth, that the average citizens outside of NYC simply don’t like him.

    I think he would make a great president. He definitely gets my vote.

    I don’t get it. He’s exactly the tough talking, tough acting president this country needs. Desperately. Why don’t they like him? Could someone please explain…….
