The stress must be getting to him...Giuliani admitted to hospital for flu-like symptoms
Hope its nothing serious.

But this does bring up an interesting point. Given that these candidates are going around shaking hands with so many people (and kids), I'm surprised they aren't sick a lot. Or maybe they are and do a good job of hiding it.

1. I too hope it isn't serious
I have no use for the guy, but don't wish anyone to be ill. You are correct with all the campaigning, they all have to be just worn out and it's surprising that they are not all sick.

12. This is what a collapse in the polls
does to Rudy. Don't be surprised if he's just looking for sympathy - I wouldn't put anything sleazy past this guy. He signed up to campaign for pres and if the poor baby has flu symptoms, let him take and aspirin and suck it up.

2. Yikes -- he felt poorly enough to have the plane turn around and go back
so he could check into a hospital. That sounds a little extreme for flu-like symptoms?

3. Ghouli will hook up with his next Mistress in the hospital
Some nurse will probably be pinch-hitting for Judi in a NYC limo sometime soon. The question is will she score in time to move into the White House before Judi?

4. I've often wondered about what they are exposed to too.
But my immune system is shot so I think about those things. Maybe lots of preventative stuff helps them keep going...

7. I wish him well
I despise the guy and don't have a positive thing to say about him but I don't hate him enough to wish something as unpleasant as the flu on him.

9. I've just dealt with that bug
and I know exactly how I got it. Shaking hands, meeting lots of people, and not having the opportuity to wash hands frequently.
It has to be worse for any national campaigner. Luckily, this big hits hard for a day, and after 4 you get much better.

They have either a tremendous desire to serve, a tremendous ego, or some combination of the two...

14. The flu-like symptoms may be masking an underlying depressive malady of
some sort.

Rudy's likely down in the dumps because shutting down hot-dog vendors isn't the prevailing issue he thought it would be.

Voters are listening, but they just don't see hot-dog vendors and street windshield cleaners to be that big a deal.
