he has NO WHERE TO GO

I'm deeply saddened....

[Raquel]

I think Schumer, and especially Gilli, are vulnerable. ( This is my opinion of Gilli http://raquelokyay.com/?p=152 ) This isn’t your regular election year. The silent majority are paying attention and are peeved. If Townsend or DioGuardi can generate funds from the grass roots, even nation wide if they have to, we can do this!

My take on Chuckie Schumer!

[Raquel]

Haven’t had a glass of champagne in a while, yum, if Schumer loses, I’m likely to join you in that celebration with a bottle of my own!

If you could have gotten a Pataki or Rudy to run you could have gotten Ed Koch to back him Koch is angered at Schumer's refusal to challenge Obama's Israel bashing. Koch could move mountains of NYC voters.

This year may be transformational, I'm not convinced, but in NYS it's not 94.There will be no Pataki surprise this year in the senate. There's a better chance at Gov. if Levy gets the nod. He can campaign and he's honest. Lazio was trotted out early and displayed zero traction, but I think he'll get the nod and lose bigger than he lost to Clinton.

It will be a big mistake for the Party to nominate Lazio. You’re right, 0 traction, no grassroots support or excitement. He’s not a grassroots kind of guy. He’s part of the good ole boys club. He’s a moderate Republican.

Levy, on the other hand, runs on a solid record. One on one he’s attractive and appealing. He has already generated grass roots support.

People in charge have to take a chance, no one else has stepped up to the plate. I say give it to Levy, get the State excited about a candidate who has a real plan to fix New York’s spiriling debt at the top of the ticket. I think Ed Cox is right on this one.

Jay I’m shaking things up in New York!

Thank you for going after that rascal Schummer. He's another one of those arrogant, self important creatures that need to be toppled.

Hey... if our Dave Obey can feel the heat to retire, anyone can.
