Rudy driven to desperate measures

Rudy Giuliani may be harder up for funds than everyone thinks. The Republican candidate has put his 1966 Chevrolet Corvair convertible up for auction on eBay, and with seven days to go, the highest bid stands at $16, 000.

Recent reports suggest Giuliani’s campaign is desperately seeking donations; some of his senior staff are said to be going without pay. With the new Rasmussen poll showing Giuliani in third place in Florida he needs to spend all the money he can his gets his hands on this weekend if he’s to reverse his downturn, before the Florida primary on Tuesday.
