"Coming from a man who lives in the Beltway, who is a Washington insider and lobbyist and who played the role Rudy Giuliani actually lived on a television series, I am not sure what to make of the senator's comments, except to say results are results," Katie Levinson said.

Bingo. A whole lot of the Americans at minimum couldn't care less about NY and some down-right despise it.

Personally I've never been there, and have little to no interest in ever going. If somebody likes it there, fine. But Rooty can no more relate to the people in fly-over country as they can relate to the so called "average New Yorker".

If their politicians don't think so, perhaps it is time to "Git a Rope"
