Giuliani’s Thank You List Omissions

"First, I want to thank my wife, Judith, for being a loving, patient and supportive partner," Giuliani said last night. "I want to thank (stepdaughter) Whitney for her loving support."

"I want to thank my campaign chairman, Pat Oxford, who has been remarkable," he continued. "My campaign manager, Mike DuHaime. My senior campaign adviser, Tony Carbonetti.

Then a long list:

"And then, my remarkable Florida team, the very best Florida team anybody could have, headed by Attorney General Bill McCollum. And a few of our people here in Florida.  I can’t mention all of them, but, of course, Ingrid McCollum, who gave me the single best introduction of my campaign. Mayor Julio Robaina, Karen Unger, Joe Fogg, Dan Sargeant, Al Austin, my friend John Sale, and so many of my friends that are all here, and so many of our senior staff, all of whom really came to Florida."

Unmentioned? His son and daughter.

It was a thank you list and unfortunately his kids didn’t back him so he couldn’t thank them for helping his campaign along.

“And I’d especially like to thank history for the events of 9/11, without which I’d never have had any reason to run for president and to waste all of this time and effort.”
