Former Mayor Rudy Giuliani returned to the campaign trail this afternoon with Joe Lhota, his protégé and candidate in the mayors race, and proclaimed that yesterdays decision by a federal appeals court to halt the implementation of stop-and-frisk reform would fundamentally shake things up in Mr. Lhotas favor.

The police departments terrible. The police departments awful. Theyre stopping all these people for no reason.
The court of appeals has just basically said to him: that is a bunch of malarkey, he later declared. I hope it had a dramatic effect on the race.
Mr. Giuliani, who hired Mr. Lhota as his budget director and later promoted him to become his right-hand man, went on to charge Democratic mayoral nominee Bill de Blasio misled the public and demanded an apology.
