I like the guy.

He has already taken "the beast" to task for her criticism of Bush's NSA's "domestic spying program" which monitors al-qada phone calls to Muslim fundamentalists here in the US. His words were strong and accurate.

Maybe he can give her a fight. She was fortunate in her last opponent.

Lawyer Says He Won't Run for Clinton's Seat

...and a BIG SEAT it is, too!!!

"I listen to him every now and then, but I think Hannity is for Rookies who are in the process of seeing the light :-)"

Hannity invites Lib tools onto his show, and then tries to debate them. As if you could really have a debate with a liberal....

[MJY1288]

I have been listening to Talk Radio for at least 20 years, and I can count on one hand, the number of Liberals who have actually answered a direct question, those who did! are now "Born Again Conservatives" :-)

Who wants to be a speed bump? Who wants to finance a speed bump's campaign?

Translation I'm way to young and full of life to be arkancided just yet please dont kill me I wont challenge your authority.

[No Longer Free State]

But he said he will gladly run from it...

[StarFan]

The Democrats, perhaps emboldened by Mrs. Clinton's hefty campaign war chest and large lead in the polls, were quick to poke fun at the opposition on Thursday.

Frankly I cannot fault them in deriding the NY GOP.

Julie thanks for the info. on John Spencer who is an unknown in our neck of the woods and undoubtedly to our local newsmen who never seem to mention his name (sarcasm).

John Spencer is the best option available. He's the only person in the running who's won something, and I hear that he was a pretty good Mayor. He won his office by unseating an incumbent and was reelected with 65%. At the very least, he'll force the Hildabeast to explain herself on some of her more out there stances.

The New York GOP establishment should forget their petty turf wars and support him.

[stephenjohnbanker]

All kidding aside, I think he would win!

[yoe]

BRAVO! It is my fervent hope that Cox will now join forces to get John Spencer elected as the new "Junior Senator" from New York State.

[1Old Pro]

Pataki should be given full credit for engineering Sen. Clinton's re-election.

Yes indeed, he has never said a bad thing about her, he has personally bankrupted the state party and he has disgusted good Republicans into not even caring.

See post # 32 for more on Spencer.

So far I like what I hear from him.....he's not afraid to 'take on the Beast' and has come out swinging.

If I still lived in NY (where I was born & raised)....I'd be a volunteer for his Campaign.

I plan to help him financially as I did Guiliani & Lazio.

I figure even if he doesn't win (and I pray he does) ....We need to help him weaken the Beast's 2008 aspirations.

Leni.......Jackie Mason would be great but I don't think he wants to take a 'pay-cut' from show-biz........LOL

Perhaps Spencer should hire him as a consultant?

[firebrand]

Note to NY Times: How about referring to him as the father of a U.S. president's grandson? That's more interesting than "lawyer."

Thanks for the ping
