Rudi led the biggest city in the country and, arguably, the most important city in the world. Romney led one of the most liberal states in the country, as a Republican. A history of bipartisanship and a willingness to compromise.
Disagree totally. Because neither was a governor or mayor does not mean they lack leadership experience. Obama was a civil rights lawyer before public office, an author and university professor. Oh, and Hillary was first lady for 8 years, a post she did not take as a figurehead.

If the GOP frontrunner was "just" a senator, I doubt you would bemoan thier lack of experience?
