When New York City Mayor RUDOLPH GIULIANI ends his term on Dec. 31, he should immediately start up an exploratory committee in Paris. In what continues to be the most swinging mayoralty in U.S. politics, Giuliani's soon-to-be-former wife DONNA HANOVER asked a court to prevent the mayor from bringing his girlfriend, JUDITH NATHAN, into Gracie Mansion, the mayoral residence. Hanover and Giuliani, who separated last May, still live in Gracie Mansion with their two children, ages 15 and 11. (It is very difficult to find an apartment in New York City.) It is unclear how often Nathan actually visits the mansion, although she has appeared at several mayoral functions at Giuliani's side. Meanwhile, the mayor's divorce lawyer derided Hanover for "trying to cling to a marriage that's been dead for years." In France, they would just all settle for a menage.
