Spencer pledges to remain in Senate race. Spencer “I intend to win Republican and Conservative nominations and I will see this election through until November 2006.”

Yonkers, NY: Former Yonkers Mayor John Spencer announced today that he will compete in the primary election to win the nominations of both the Conservative and Republican parties.

“The people of New York deserve a choice in this race for the United States Senate, not an echo.” said Spencer, “I will not sit idle while Senator Clinton and Jeanine Pirro try to out liberal each other and debate the failed policies of liberalism. Jeanine Pirro had a 100% pro choice record until yesterday, she is anti-2nd amendment and supports mandatory gay rights.”

“I have always run and won election as a proud conservative and this race will be no different.” Spencer continued, “I am fully confident that I will win the endorsement of the Conservative Party and the nomination from the Republican faithful. I will win this Republican primary as a true conservative.”

“I want to assure my supporters that I will run on a true conservative platform. I am the true Conservative Republican candidate.”

“There is no difference between the liberal policies of Senator Clinton and the liberal policies of Jeanine Pirro. If you want to vote for a liberal, vote for Senator Clinton. If you want to vote for a conservative, vote for John Spencer.”

Mayor John Spencer, 58, served as Mayor of the City of Yonkers from 1996 until 2004. Yonkers is the fourth largest city in New York and saw great prosperity, redevelopment and environmental cleanup under the leadership of Mayor Spencer. ### Paid for by Spencer for Senate

I received this from the Spencer campaign. It looks like he won't back down.

Good. Let's see what New York Republicans really want, and what they deserve.

John Spencer will be the first conservative to run in New York since Jim Buckley in 1970. That's long enough don't you think. John can say and do what Pirro won't: he will press the beast about issues she doesn't want to talk about. On gay marriage, abortion and support of the second amendment, there is NOTHING that Pirro, NARAL'S GAL, can say to the beast on any of these issues. Let's not have the
ratmedia pick our candidates the way they want to pick Mc Cain for us.

A Ross Perot vote-splitter.

Hillary thanks you for assuring her re-election on the way to the Presidency.

>> A Ross Perot vote-splitter. <<

I must have missed where Hillary is seeking the Republican PRIMARY nomination, the only way Spencer could be a "vote spliter" between Pirro and Hillary. More likely Ed Cox will be a vote spliter because he will take conservative votes in the primary that would otherwise go to Spencer (Pirro will only get conservative votes from the delusional "she can beat Hillary" crowd on FR)

Elliot Spitzer thanks Pirro for giving the Dems a free pass at holding the A.G. office, because Pirro's ego had her op-out of the OPEN RACE for A.G. and into an unwinnable U.S. Senate campaign when there are already two qualified conservative Republicans running.
