Ms Clinton's modest success with voters in small-town upstate New York is taken by some as proof she can win over conservatives

I personally am baffled by that success. Could someone who knows New York State politics please explain it to us?

I second the motion. NY Republicans, explanation, please!

Why didn't Rudy keep his pants on and hand this woman her head six years ago? How 'bout that for starters?

That "success" is from the down state libs fleeing the cesspool of NYC.

It doesn`t amount to much other than a story line as without the dem strongholds of NYC and Albany she still wouldn`t get far in the rest of the state.

These must be the wine country towns. Also Ithaca...The city of evil.

She went to Rochester, NY last week...Dem Town and also a welfare town. Pop 30,000??

I can't think of a small town in upstate other than Albany, well besides here in Rochester that went for Hillary!. As far as Rudy and his wardrobe malfunction, I think it was prostrate cancer that was cited as the reason for his withdrawal.
