As to Mukasey's connections with Giuliani? Forget this morning's papers if you want all the details. As Ron Mills pointed out yesterday in his cleverly named blog, Ron Mills \ufffd News And Commentary, Mukasey is a really close pal of Rudy's \ufffd he administered the oath of office to newly elected Mayor Giuliani twice in 1994 \ufffd once in Mukasey's apartment.
Mukasey was already a member of the Giuliani campaign's "Justice Advisory Committee", and Mukasey's son Marc is a partner in Rudy's law firm.
The apartment oath and the fact that Marc Mukasey is a law partner of Rudy's somehow didn't make it into this morning's New York Times story.
But if Rudy wins the '08 election, you can be sure of one detail: Mukasey will stay on as AG.
A bigger question is what he would do to help Rudy get elected.
