Rudy Giuliani, on ABC's This Week.
RUDY: I saw her for myself, George, this summer when I took her to Yankee Stadium in Democratic territory -- you know, 7:1 Democrats in the Bronx, probably -- she got a great reception.
So there's something extra special that Sarah Palin has in terms of reaching out to people, and my party needs that kind of excitement.
STEPHANOPOULOS: So you don't buy the suggestions she's going to push moderates out of the party?
RUDY: Moderates shouldn't get pushed out of the party. Sarah can push for the positions that she has, other people can push for the positions that they have. That's the kind of competition we want. And we want attention on the Republican party. After all, it's good for a two-party system, and she creates attention, she raises money, she helps candidates. I don't agree with everything that she says, but she doesn't agree with everything that I say.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Almost 2/3 of the public doesn't think she's qualified to be President. Do you?
RUDY: Well, I think that's going to develop. I mean she's got 2 [to] 3 years to develop a case -- if she wants to make a case for running for President.
