Here is another of many YouTube videos that will bedevil the Giuliani campaign.

This clip in and of itself isn't devastating for Giuliani, because if you actually listen to what he says there is a lot of wiggle room there for clarification. But it does speak to a certain lack of self-discipline on a hot-button issue (abortion) for him in the Republican primary battle.

Part of Rudy's appeal is the direct and in many ways unpolitician-like way he answers questions, but that candor can be a double-edged sword, and the last two weeks have shown that Giuliani is going to have to step us his game as a national candidate and bring more focus and discipline to the campaign trail.

As long as it was Giuliani vs. McCain at the top of the GOP field, Rudy was going to have a significant edge. But with Romney's $20 million in fundraising making it clear he intends on being a player and with Fred Thompson floating in the background and polling in double figures (while unannounced), Rudy would be wise to limit the number of his unforced errors.
