Unfortunately, what we are all interested in is defeating Hillary, not Pirro. A strong conservative in a state that is, on balance, quite liberal, would be a huge underdog against her heinous.
This is classic. Hillary will now win in a landslide. We conservatives can now whimper in the dark about our principles and refusal to compromise. Fine, it's easier to be a minority party and not have the burden of actually winning and getting things done. Now Hillary can pat Conservatives on our thick heads and laugh all the way to the Capitol... shades of 'read my lips' and the deformed party all over again.
Looks like New York has some very intriguing potential GOP gubernatorial candidates for 2006; "Rochester billionaire and newly turned Republican Thomas Golisano", and NYC Mayor Bloomberg.
We need a last minute dark horse campaign from Rudy.
If he wants to ever be president, he must first defeat Hillary in 2006.
Only then will he be a true hero to the Republican base and be able to win the GOP nomination.
You can't defeat Hillary by cloning her and slapping on a GOP label. Pirro's essentially a Democrat by her politics, no wonder she can't find contributors.

I am totally for John Spencer. Pirro is running an idiotic campaign against Hillary! John Spencer is a strong conservative who given a chance can smack the hell out of Hillary - I'm nost saying he will definately win- but he's gonna give her one HELL of a fight!
The average New Yorker has the edge on Jeanine. Go Spencer!
What does it matter, really? Hitlery is going to be the first woman president anyhow. At present, the GOP has NOONE to offer that brings experience & charisma to the post. And after the last 8 years, voters in general will be disenfranchised with the GOP. Unfortunate, but I would lay money on this one.
Jeannine Pirro is dropping like a rock. She is not catching fire because people can't see a difference between her and Hillary Clinton. They are both 100% pro abortion, 100% pro gay "marriage" 100% anti 2nd amendment and pro affirmative action, so where's the difference.
Harry Truman once said "When you give people the choice of voting for a fake Democrat or a real Democrat they will vote for the real Democrat everytime."
Pirro wouldn't break 40%.
I had high hopes for Jeanine Pirro, and she had great potential in liberal New York. And ideologically, it's better to have a little of something than a lot of nothing (why do so many conservatives not realize this?) This is New York, not Alabama. John Spencer is a good person, but certainly not a first-tier candidate for statewide office.
Problem is, Pirro's campaign has been so flat-footed, she's appearing to be out of her league. I'm starting to wonder if she's in the race to stay.
Why in the world do you want this woman as your Senator?!?
Hey, New York, you sure know how to pick them!
