Just curious, what do folks think happen with the votes in NY if the race is Hillary agains Giuliani?
Lots of electoral votes, a deal killer for the Dems. If NYC could twice vote him Mayor, should he not beat Hillary?
I’d have to think that anyone in NYC or NY, remembers that Rudi is the one that got them out of the mess NY/NYC was?
That’s an excellent question. New York DID go for Reagan in ‘84, so it’s not outside the realm of possibility. And, unlike HRC, he is a real NYer.
Regardless of how NY’s electoral votes went in a Rudy/Hillary matchup, I think he’d carry NJ and CT, Also, he could carry several of the states Bush work on in ‘04 where Team Bush thought they might have a chance, like PA/WI, possibly even her original homestate of IL.
Rangel wouldn’t be shooting off at the mouth if he were so confident she will win. He’s just trying to muddy the waters.
