Eroding Support for Rudy

In January and February, when Rudy Giuliani was rising high in the Republican polls, I nominated him to be the candidate mostly likely to fade fast, and fading fast he is. In polls released today, he has lost 50% of the support he had just 90 days ago.
Human Head calls him "Ghouliani," which always makes me giggle. Seeing as he's clearly the most overtly authoritarian candidate in the running (he'd only blow past Habeus Corpus "infrequently"), it upsets me that it's going to be a socially liberal take on Roe v. Wade that does him in, and not a collective repulsion at his attitudes towards civil liberties.
I'll take what I can get, I suppose.
