LONDON (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani bragged about his international celebrity Wednesday on a trans-Atlantic campaign trip in which he schmoozed with conservative idol Margaret Thatcher.

"I'm probably one of the four or five best known Americans in the world," Giuliani told a small group of reporters at a posh London hotel as onlookers gathered in the lobby to gawk at actor Dustin Hoffman who was on a separate visit.

The former New York mayor is the latest GOP presidential candidate to travel to Britain, meeting the country's new political guard and rubbing elbows with Thatcher, an icon for American conservatives.

"This is no time for defeatism and appeasement," Giuliani told a gathering of the Atlantic Bridge, a group that promotes ties between British and American conservatives. "It may be better to put it as Margaret Thatcher might have done — this is no time to go wobbly."

Thatcher, 81, attended the speech at the hotel.

7. Best known isn't necessarily a good thing.
Paris Hilton, OJ and B*sh have to be on that list as well. Go Rudy.
