Breaking: Kerik Resigns From Giuliani Partners
Former police commissioner and U.S. homeland security nominee Bernard Kerik said Wednesday he will leave Giuliani Partners, former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's consulting firm.
At a news conference in Manhattan, Kerik said he had apologized to Giuliani for being a distraction because of his messy withdrawal as a candidate to head the Department of Homeland Security.
The former New York corrections commissioner said he told Giuliani his resignation would be effective immediately. He said he would seek other unspecified business opportunities.
He did not take questions from reporters.

If there was any doubt that Giuliani was running for higher office, I say set them aside. He is running.
Can you believe that Kerik was about to be in charge of Homeland Security - and now a week later he can't even keep a job at Giuliani Partners?
