From the
article:
There were so many candidates and so little time that some of them were forced to go to unorthodox ends to win attention. Rudolph W. Giuliani of New York, whose campaign has shown little signs of traction here, rode into his first speech of the day, at a robotics convention in Manchester, on a scooter.
“This is fascinating,” he said. “Unbelievable. I think I’m going to keep it.”

Robotics kickoff = robotics convention?
Segway = scooter?
Oh well...
