Go Home Giuliani Not Running for NY Governor

THE PLANK NOVEMBER 19, 2009

Giuliani Not Running for NY Governor

The NYT has the scoop.

For an explanation of what the whole Rudy boomlet may have been about, check out the piece I wrote about Giuliani for New York magazine last month.

The Times story linked here mentions recent talk that Rudy could challenge incumbent Democratic Senator Kirsten Gillibrand. But I doubt it. From my NY mag story:

Even though a recent poll had Giuliani beating [Gillibrand] by nine points, Giuliani laughs off the idea. "My value is in running things," he told me. "Commenting is great, but I get to do that anyway on television and radio and [in] op-ed pieces." "It’s a job that we have discussed in the past, and he just has no desire to do it," [longtime advisor Anthony] Carbonetti says.
