Rudy is back!

TPM:

The Times reports that with the GOP for once running seriously behind Democrats in campaign fundraising, Giuliani is offering to hold fundraisers for down-ticket Republicans. But with an important catch -- he gets to keep part of the haul for himself.

Rudy has $3.6 million in campaign debt from his historically catastrophic campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. And while the precise modalities aren't completely clear, Giuliani is telling Republicans candidates that for him to come to headline a fundraiser to raise money for them -- some of the cash has to be set aside to help him retire his campaign debt.
