Former state GOP Chairman Bill Powers on Giuliani's all-or-nothing in Florida approach: "His strategy certainly has been risky, but at the end of the day, that's Rudy." Roger Stone, a part-time resident of Florida, says of Giuliani: "(He's) melting everywhere like a snowball on Miami Beach." Newsday's Dan Janison hears echoes of Giuliani's seventh State of the City address, delivered eight years ago this week, in the speech Mayor Bloomberg gave yesterday.

In the big picture, "Lost" also could encourage networks to do more bold experiments with limited-run series. The "Lost" makers "continue to change the culture of TV watching and I think it is evolving toward a place that can give us more meaningful television and more meaningful artistic expression within the broadcast realm, as opposed to just HBO or Showtime," says Jensen.
