Big Hillary Clinton Win in NY Could Cost GOP House

The GOP will get what it deserves. By acting like Democrats.

She hates it when people call her "Big Hillary Clinton"!

Rudy's Gift to America!

Why should the GOP spend anything? Either you love her or you loathe her. At this point no-one's mind is going to changed. And FWIW, here in Upstate anyway, the shine is off the apple, even among some of my fellow Dems. I don't think her re-election bid is a gimme, and I'm thinking there's a distinct chance she might even bail on her re-election bid. Which will leave the Dems in a bad spot, but what does she care? Dems are there to serve her, not the other way around.

their coattails could help Democrats

Those are not 'coattails'. Wash your hands with plenty of soap and water!

this is BS

I used to read Newsmax Carl. Have you ever wondered why many of us have stopped? Keep it up, and you will have less of an audience that pat buchanan!

Any specifics as to who is in danger exactly? My Congressman, Jim Walsh (Syracuse and surrounding area) will sail to reelection. I'm not sure he even has a Democratic opponent.

I have family who lives in upstate NY in a heavily Republican district. The people there could care less about the supposed Spitzer and Hildabeast effect, who's support comes mostly from New York City. They'll re-elect their Republican candidate by a wide margin.

Does anyone expect anything other than a big win for the Beast?

[rod1]

Oh Pleasse Hilary's NY Senate race hardly has coat-tails.

The drive-by MSM writer is wet-dream writing.

Was the this written in Diseyland's fantasyland much like the New Orleans mayoral candidates photos being substitute shot at the park vs the real locale?

"It could turn into a Democratic year in New York, which might then have an impact on down-ballot races for Congress," he explained.

When hasn't it been a Democrap year in New York? Even the Republicans are liberals!

Even though recent polls show Spencer gaining on Clinton, he's gotten almost no exposure on talk radio and cable TV

Note how Sean Hannity had the socially liberal Pirro (wh is a terrific DA, BTW) on the show frequently, but as far as I know, has NEVER had the much-more-conservative Spencer on the air.

? Call the radio stations and demand that they put ALL SEnatorial candidates (and gubernatorial candidates, too) on the air. And I think an independent expenditure campaign is called for here. We need to start a fund to flood New York stations with paid reminders of Hitlery's scandals as well as her voting record.

[Salvey]

Carl, you were better when you were simply "Carl of Oyster Bay," calling in to the NYC radio talk shows.

"Bloomberg News reports that the former first lady, along with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Eliot Spitzer, now lead their opponents by such wide margins that their coattails could help Democrats "pick up as many as six New York congressional seats - more than one-third of the 15 they need nationally to gain a House majority.""

I almost shot my fruit juice through my nose reading this. The NY delegation is already overrepresented with 'Rats, and the GOP ONLY holds 9 out of 29 seats. Where do they think the GOP will shrink to 3 (?!?) seats with Spitzer and Clinton at the top of the ballot ?! Utter crap !

[proudpapa]

You are absolutely correct. At most the dem's pick off two house seats in NY.

I wonder which of Hillary's assistance really wrote this article?

[chris1]

Sue Kelly.

[manwiththehands]

This is frustrating. It's like the entire Republican party isn't standing up for much of anything. It's a bad habit they picked up from the President.
