Giuliani: I shouldn't have joined Iraq Study = Group

Republican presidential contender Rudy Giuliani said Wednesday it was = a=20 mistake for him to join the Iraq Study Group, on which he lasted just = two months=20 and failed to show up for any official meetings, the=20 Associated Press writes.

As AP notes:

The former New York mayor has tried to tamp down criticism in = recent days=20 after Newsday reported (here,=20 on Tuesday) that Giuliani was a no-show for two of the group's = meetings=20 and instead attended paid public appearances.

"I thought it would work, but then after a month or two I = realized the=20 idea that I was possibly going to run for president would be = inconsistent with=20 that," Giuliani said during a campaign stop in Iowa.

Giuliani's aides had = also=20 told Newsday that he didn't want to politicize the study = group. The=20 newspaper noted, though, that "Giuliani himself did not cite his concern = about=20 politicizing the group in his May 2006 resignation letter to Republican=20 co-chairman James Baker, which offered only his 'previous time = commitments' as a=20 reason."
