Presidential Notes II.

Those old Republican family values are at work, as Rudy's kids are estranged from him, thanks to his brazen affair with his now-wife Judith:

The thrice-married Giuliani divorced his first wife, Regina Peruggi, after 14 years. Later, infamously, he chose a live TV interview to tell Andrew's mother, TV personality Donna Hanover, that he was divorcing her.

Insiders said yesterday that Giuliani's children - Andrew's sister Caroline is 18 and headed to Harvard University this fall - have long had differences with their father's third wife, Judith, whom Giuliani married in 2002 after publicly flaunting their relationship for months, even while married to Hanover.

Those with knowledge of the situation said the children don't like to be around her and that Giuliani, rather than spend time separately with his kids, has chosen to stick by his new wife's side.

As a result, the former mayor rarely spends time with his children and has missed major events in their lives, including many of Andrew's major golf tournaments and more recent school theatrical productions in which Caroline has starred, sources said.


And it gets better:

Ms Nathan has her own share of problems, which will be difficult to keep under wraps. Shortly before the September 11 attacks of 2001, her ex-husband sought to gain custody of their daughter, then 19, alleging that the publicity surrounding Ms Nathan's affair with Mr Giuliani had disturbed the girl.


Speaking of relationships, David Geffen hasn't gotten along with the Clintons for a long time.

Governor Richardson thinks the first four contests will determine who gets the nomination.

I think Richardson will take the Nevada caucuses, for what it's worth, which is exactly zilch.
