Giuliani went against the conventional wisdom learned by decades and decades worth of presidential candidates - that you have to participate in early states such as New Hampshire and Iowa because it's all about momentum and national media exposure - and predictably, he's fallen off the face of the earth and probably can't revive his campaign. He has dropped to third place in Florida, which was where he was "betting the farm."
