Rudy Gears Up for 2010, Starts Off by Contradicting Himself
Rudy Giuliani has been waging war on gay marriage in recent days, part of a plan to firm up support with the Republican base in advance of a possible run for governor. This means he will probably not be attending the wedding of Howard Koeppel and Mark Hsaio—the couple that graciously provided Rudy with a place to crash folowing his split with Donna Hanover in 2001— who report today that they plan to tie the knot in Connecticut on May 2. Although the ex-mayor once promised the couple that he'd marry them himself if gay marriage ever became legal in New York, he now claims marriage "should remain between a man and woman." Or, in Rudy's case, a man and three different women, including his second cousin once removed. [NYP]
