When God-o-Meter saw Rudy Giuliani sitting Mike Huckabee-like<\/a> by a Christmas tree and donning a Huckabeesque red sweater in his new “Holiday Wishes” ad, it naturally thought Giuliani was copping a play from the former Arkansas Governor’s playbook. But Giuliani spokesperson Maria Comella tells God-o-Meter that’s not the case: “[The ad] was taped several weeks ago at the same time as several other ads. So it\u2019s not inspired or in reaction to Huckabee\u2019s spot.” Unlike Huckabeee’s Christmas spot, Giuliani’s makes no explicit mention of Christ’s birth and features no cross-like imagery. God-o-Meter is raising his rating anyway.<\/p>\n
