The Giuliani campaign - or "exploratory committee," as the legal dance card reads - is announcing the addition of Steve Forbes, who will serve as National Co-Chair. From the official website:
The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Exploratory Committee today announced that Steve Forbes, President and Chief Executive Officer of Forbes and Editor-in-Chief of Forbes magazine, has endorsed Rudy Giuliani for President of the United States. Mr. Forbes will serve as a National Campaign Co-Chair and Senior Policy Advisor."I am honored to support Rudy Giuliani for President," Steve Forbes said. "As Mayor of New York City, Rudy Giuliani showed how exercising fiscal discipline, including tax cuts, lowers deficits, spurs economic growth, and increases revenue. It is time the rest of the country benefit from a true fiscal conservative leader who gets real results."
Read it all at the link above. This is a big boost for Giuliani, as Forbes is extremely popular among "economic conservatives."
Hat-tip to K-Lo at The Corner for mentioning this first.

PROSPERITY is Priority ONE ... (Below threshold)1. Posted by Justin Thyme | March 28, 2007 10:35 PM | Score: 0 (0 votes cast)
PROSPERITY is Priority ONE -- IT is what makes EVERYTHING else possible. Of all the contenders only Rudy seems to know that -- and what to do about it -- to his bones. He proved hard-nosed enough to ram tax cuts through -- in NYC of all places. And it turned the city around economically. He may not have a degree in Classical Economics as (ONLY) President Reagan did, but he's learned the same lessons. In the streets.
