Hang it up Rick

Gotta wonder how much traction the Pubs can get with all their retreads. Some new blood would be good.

People smart and capable enough to make a difference won't go anywhere near public life. At best we get mediocre retreads instead of sociopathic ones:

"Romney, 2012...He's Faithful to his Wife." :)

What's wrong with you guys? Are you sick? He's solid. The best change we have for NY, unless Rudy runs.

He ran a pretty good race against the beast, and almost pulled it out... Rudy pulled out with just a few months left, and he stepped in (no one else wanted it)... So, kudos to him

Yes, I went to one of his stops in the winding days of the Senate race. He’d be heads above any dem and above the RINO’s. But can he win in NYC?

Against Paterson, state-wide, maybe (he can still lose NYC as long as he racks up huge wins upstate and slight wins in the suburbs

Cuomo, Paterson or Lazio...let me think. Duh!

You are right...NYC kills us in CNY and Northern NYS.

After disappointment with Bush and McCain, the natives are getting restless. They demand red meat to satisfy their hunger for “real conservativism”.

Sience Lazio is running, it must mean Rudy isn’t running. Lazio could beat Patterson. However if the Cuomo son runs, then all bets are off.

Either might be the best thing since Hudson but they still have to win. I think Lazio would have to show some substance and Rudy some vitality.

If it’s Paterson. I could see a dem run off. Dems aren’t too thrilled with the guy. Not up here anyway, but they are a funny group. They stick to the party line, in public anyway.

Agree.

I can't imagine Paterson running, though.

Cuomo would get it union-wise.

Cuomo is a 5 letter word that’s like a 4 letter word.

Now dear one, you wandered in under your own power. If you’re annoyed, you know where the exit is.
