Presidential Candidate Rudy Giuliani made his fourth visit to Alabama today. The former Mayor made several stops today which included a public meet and greet at Oysterella's Restaurant in Mobile.

People at Oysterella's got a rare encounter when the Presidential Candidate showed up. Giuliani was in Mobile for a fundraiser and to visit with and gain supporters in his Presidential bid. Like a true opponent he shared his thoughts on another candidate, Hillary Clinton. "I have a million ideas the country can't afford them all. You know what she's really telling you? It is quite possible the country can't afford Hillary Clinton,"said Giuliani as he quoted Clinton.
Those in attendance say they were impressed by the former New York city mayor's work post September 11th and say they may have already made up their minds on who to vote for.
"It certainly helps to sway. Again he was a candidate that I was already interested in, so we'll keep watching and have to see what others say as well," said Keri Kraft.
"I'm just wondering who the second guy is who he's going to marry up with. That's important to me also . But I would say right now that Rudy's number one with me," said Jeff Doherty.

After the meet and greet Giuliani made his way to a nearby residence where a private fundraiser was being held. The private fundraiser was a thousand dollar per person reception, by invitation only. Giuliani was also expected at a private dinner for those willing to shell out twenty-three hundred to dine with the Presidential Candidate.
