TEAM RUDY SPEAKS [Byron York]
Members of Giuliani's team are downplaying the exploratory committee, saying that Giuliani still has not made a decision whether to run. This evening, treasurer John Gross released a brief statement:
Mayor Giuliani has not made a decision yet. With the filing of this document, we have taken the necessary legal steps so an organization can be put in place and money can be raised to explore a possible presidential run in 2008.
Then Anthony Carbonetti, a top adviser to Giuliani, released a statement of his own:
Rudy has traveled the country campaigning tirelessly on behalf of Republican candidates and has had the opportunity to speak with Americans on a wide variety of issues. They have been encouraging him to run for President, and this filing affords him the opportunity to raise money and put together an organization to assist him in making his decision.
