Former New York City Mayor and failed 2008 Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani pushed back on rumors that he’s been rounding up political advisers for a possible 2012 run, saying this morning: “So far I haven’t found any political advisers to round up. Maybe they’re not listening.”
The New York Post cited anonymous sources today who said that “the tough-talking former mayor ‘thinks the Republican race will be populated with far-right candidates like Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee, and there’s opportunity for a moderate candidate with a background in national security.'”
The Post also said Giuliani had a trip planned to New Hampshire next month to meet with consultants.
On Morning Joe today, Giuliani pushed back: “I haven’t done that. I haven’t rounded up my political advisers. Of course, I keep it in the back of my mind.”
He added that he has nothing scheduled in New Hampshire.
