Today, I am asking for your help for info and links about Hillary's 2000 Senate campaign. Hassidic Jews voted for Rick Lazio to the tune of about 70 percent in neighboring Hassidic Jewish communties, however, in one area Hillary beat Lazio by about 1400 to 17. To believe it was coincidence is to believe the preposterous.......If you know a Rabbi in this area, that might be helpful.
Hillary Seen Eyeing Spy Clemency Call In Deal With Key Pol
Hikind Nod May Hang On Her Pollard Stance
At Stake: Orthodox Votes

NEW YORK A senior New York Democratic leader appears to be brokering a deal in which Hillary Rodham Clinton would call for the release of convicted spy Jonathan Pollard in return for an endorsement by a key politician in an Orthodox section of Brooklyn.
Pollard's fate was discussed at a meeting last week between Mrs. Clinton and Assemblyman Dov Hikind, according to Mr. Hikind and the Speaker of the State Assembly, Sheldon Silver, who arranged the meeting. Mr. Silver indicated that Mr. Hikind, who represents Boro Park, had urged Mrs. Clinton to "take certain positions" before he would consider an endorsement, presumably referring to Pollard. The Clinton campaign said it would welcome an endorsement from Mr. Hikind, who has been a vocal critic of the first lady. It said that Mrs. Clinton is still "looking at the issue" of Pollard.
Although still uncertain, with the election just nine weeks away, such a deal could shore up Mrs. Clinton's shaky support among thousands of conservative and Orthodox Jewish voters. If it were to happen, the deal would also put the first lady directly at odds with her husband, who repeatedly has refused to grant clemency to Pollard. Pollard was sentenced in 1987 to a life sentence after admitting he had passed classified documents to Israel while serving as a civilian analyst in the U.S. Naval Intelligence.
As for Loozio, I saw him campaign on the same day I ran into Hillary. If that day was any indication, I'm surprised that little Ricky didn't lose by 25%, let alone 12%. He ran a pathetic campaign and was in over his head, Lawn Guyland political hack that he was.
Its a shame Rudy got distracted. Even if he wouldn't have beaten her, it would have been VERY close.
