America's Mayor Coming to W.Va.

Add Republican Rudy Giuliani to the short but growing list of 2008 presidential hopefuls including West Virginia in their campaign trails.

As The Associated Press reports, the former New York mayor plans to appear at an Aug. 3 breakfast fundraiser at The Greenbrier resort.

The event coincides with the annual meeting of the West Virginia Coal Association, held at the resort Aug. 2-4.

The AP article notes that Giuliani has already gotten more money from West Virginians than any other GOP candidate (the leading Democratic _ and overall _ candidate among Mountain State donors is John Edwards, who held a March fundraiser in Charleston).
