I cannot be separated from Rudy Giuliani. But I am also not Rudy Giuliani.

I've said I'll stand for a full second term, but I think after that it will be time for new leadership. Terms are like Shredded Wheat - two are wonderful but three might just be too many.

I will focus on being substantive and I will focus on Barack Obama.

This idea of tying me to Giuliani is quite unique. I know Rudy Giuliani. I like Rudy Giuliani. I worked with him during his administration. But we're completely different people.

Is there really anyone, besides Rudy Giuliani, who prefers the new Times Square?

I'm confident that, were I mayor, I would do some things differently than he has. But I think there's a world of difference between him and his immediate predecessor.

We have decided that now is the time for me to focus intently on my top priority, my family, as Elizabeth and I raise our two young children. To that end, I will not seek reelection to a third term.

I believe I would be a very strong general-election candidate.
