Rudy "Seriously Considering" Pres. Run



BALTIMORE (1010 WINS)  -- Former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani says he's, "seriously considering" a run for president in 2008.

But he says, as he has before, that he's focused on the 2006 midterm elections.

Giuliani was in Baltimore yesterday at a fund-raiser for Maryland Governor Robert Ehrlich's re-election bid.

In Maryland, where Democrats outnumber Republicans by a 2-to-1 ratio, Ehrlich is running what appears to be a tight race against Democrat Martin O'Malley, the popular mayor of Baltimore.

Giuliani said he would continue to travel the country to gauge the breadth of his support and his ability to raise the money needed for a presidential bid.

And without specifically addressing Giuliani's presidential ambitions, Ehrlich said the former mayor would be a very strong candidate if he were on the ballot in Maryland.
