Giuliani's record

There is certainly not much in Giuliani's background to attract religious conservatives. A McGovern Democrat in 1972, he opposed term limits, school choice and an end to rent controls during his successful 1993 campaign for mayor. As the Republican mayor, he backed Democrat Mario Cuomo's losing fourth-term bid for governor of New York. He consistently has been pro-choice, pro-gay rights (including civil unions) and pro-gun control.
