Giuliani faces tough crowd at NRA conference
Members worry about GOP candidate’s track record as New York mayor

Rudy in DC:

Most members of the gun lobby who attended Friday’s “A Celebration of American Values” conference said they were encouraged by Giuliani’s appearance and what he said about support for gun rights. But most also said they were concerned about his track record supporting gun control as mayor of New York City, and favored other candidates in the Republican presidential primary.

Giuliani may end up being the Republican party’s choice, but he’s not the ideal pro-gun rights candidate by a long shot. He’s saying the right things now, but his history speaks differently.

Has he decided to change positions to win more support? It’s possible, of course, but it’s going to take a lot of convincing.
