Rudy trying to be on both sides of abortion issue

Pro-choice GOP presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani is trying to appeal to pro-life Republicans by saying that he would appoint “strict constructionist” judges to the U.S. Supreme Court — which is code for judges who would overturn or place limits on Roe v. Wade. Giuliani also has said recently that he supports the partial-birth abortion ban and parental notification laws, policies he opposed in the past. The former New York City mayor is attempting to move to the right some in order to improve his chances in the GOP primaries. But the shift undermines what was his most appealing quality — that he was a strong leader who didn’t pander.
