Republican Party candidate and former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani chose his Party's political board director Mike DuHaime as the manager of his election campaign. Hiring such an experienced expert in national politics testifies to Giuliani's serious intentions to move into the White House. Mike DuHaime was the closest associate of Ken Mehlam, who ran George Bush's presidential campaign in 2004. At the time, DuHaime managed to incite people to vote with the message "Get out the vote," which was his big success.
