Giuliani to campaign with Bloomberg

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani will campaign with his successor, Mayor Michael Bloomberg, this weekend in Brooklyn.

The failed Republican presidential candidate is also considering a run for governor.

Giuliani leaned even more to the right as he burnished his national Republican credentials. That gets mixed reviews from New York City residents, who are overwhelmingly Democratic.

At a debate this week, Bloomberg was booed when he said Giuliani would make a good governor.

There are swaths of the city where Giuliani is still popular. As Election Day nears, Bloomberg is seeking to energize those voters.

Bloomberg is running on the Republican and Independent Party lines against Democrat William Thompson Jr.
