Team Romney is whacking away at Rudy Giuliani on immigration again, showcasing this New York Daily News story on old comments by the mayor more or less welcoming illegal immigrants to his city.

This shouldn’t surprise you because I’ve been mayor for a long time and outspoken on this issue, even nationally, I happen to agree with that. I think New York City should not deal with undocumented immigrants in a harsh way, I think they make a big contribution to the life of the city and were much better off being sensible and practical about it. And the reality is that restaurants are going to have a certain number of people who are undocumented, you know people that come here to make a living trying to help them selves and their families.

The whole thing is on YouTube at the link.

Hmm. Is this payback for the “sanctuary mansion” line?

The other thing is, Giuliani’s continuing to do pretty “eh” in New Hampshire. I thought Romney’s top target right now was Mike Huckabee, no?
