David Frum has signed on with the Giuliani campaign, and today he’s letting Deroy Murdock, who may as well have, spin for the mayor. It’s the same-old cherry-picking: E.g., pro-lifers are supposed to be happy that abortions declined more than the national average when Giuliani was mayor, but aren’t told either that they remained extremely high or that they declined less than the statewide average.

Along the way a positive mention is made of “Social Conservatives for Rudy”–a well-meaning but unimpressive site. Here, for example, is the site’s list of 14 social conservatives who have said nice things about Giuliani. (It seems not to have been able to find 14 social conservatives who have actually endorsed him.) Among the 14: Rep. Judy Biggert.

Biggert has voted to keep cloning legal, to expand federal funding for embryo-destructive research, and not to treat assaults on pregnant women as crimes with two victims. On some of these issues, she has been to the left of many Democrats in the House.

As for Miguel Estrada and Ted Olson, who are also on the list: I like them both, but what’s the evidence that they’re social conservatives?
