FIRST GOD, NOW RUDY SUDDENLY AGAINST THE ROCKIES: Slowly but surely, we’re realizing why former New York Mayor Rudy Guiliani has enjoyed a stellar political career and might be just be our next president.

The BOSTON GLOBE gives us another clue today, reporting that the Yankees #1 fan said today in Boston (while wearing a red tie) that he will be rooting for the Red Sox in the World Series against the Rockies.Rudy: “I’m rooting for the Red Sox. I am an American League fan. I am not just saying that because I am in Massachusetts.”

Genius, we tell you, because as all diehard Yankees fans know, the right thing to do in this situation is for them to root very, very hard for the Red Sox. Right. Sure. Uh-huh.
