D'Amato put up an unqualified candidate against Giuliani in the Republican primary, millionaire Ronald Lauder, solely for the purpose of using Lauder as a conduit for throwing mud at Giuliani in the hope that some of it would stick. 达马托抬出一资格不够的候选人——百万富翁劳德——在共和党初选中与朱利亚尼对抗，完全是为了利用劳德来抹黑朱利亚尼，希望抹黑能收到一些效果。
