One Person Who Won’t Be Voting For Giuliani: His Daughter

Slate breaks the story today that Rudy’s own daughter would rather Barack Obama become president than her own dad.

According to the 17-year-old Caroline Giuliani’s Facebook profile, she’s supporting Barack Obama.

On her profile, she designates her political views as “liberal” and—until this morning—proclaimed her membership in the Facebook group “Barack Obama (One Million Strong for Barack).” According to her profile, she withdrew from the Obama group at 6 a.m. Monday, after Slate sent her an inquiry about it.

So his son hates him. And his daughter won’t vote for him. And then there are the two ex-wives who, one imagines, will have plenty to say about him, especially Donna Hanover.

He may go by “America’s Mayor” but Mr. Family Man, he ain’t.
