Former New York Mayor and GOP Presidential candidate has landed a prime time speech during the GOP Convention in September.

Giuliani, the former presidential candidate and Big Apple mayor, is tentatively scheduled to address the GOP faithful on Tuesday, Sept. 2 – the second night of the convention, sources said.

Giuliani was a marquee speaker on the first day of the 2004 GOP convention in Madison Square Garden.

Giuliani has been a loyal supporter of presidential standard-bearer John McCain ever since his own campaign flamed out.

McCain, in a recent Post interview, said of Giuliani: “I’ve been with him a lot. I appreciate more than I could tell you his friendship and support. And that was steadfast throughout the primary.”

“He’s a great American. He united America. I’ll never forget that as long as I live,” McCain said, referring to Giuliani’s composure after 9/11.

Rudy has always been a loyal soldier for the GOP and will deliver a rousing “red meat” speech for the conventioneers.

Look for Rudy to come out on the attack of Obama, particularly on leadership and domestic policy issues such as crime, affirmative action and school choice.
