NYers love Rudy. They wanted him to run for a third term after 9/11. He always stood behind cops and firefighters - he'll get their support. He'll win upstate where Hillary's jobs never materialized. He'll win Wall Street and business over. He will pull the rug out from under the carpetbagger.
I think he would carry NJ, too.
Hildabeast will crush Rudy in NYS. Period, end of story.
He is a much more presentable and personable and likeable candidate than... you know... He also looks better in a dress. Besides which, we know he actually HAS a dress, or did at one time. And said dress was clean.
He will also probably have a great shot at Ct. and Pa.!
