The New York Times speculates and promotes the idea that Hillary Clinton should run against Bill deBlasio for mayor of New York City;
The question has gained momentum in the weeks since Mrs. Clinton lost to Mr. Trump, a Republican. It began quietly at first, then grew louder among the conservative media outlets and pundits who hold her and Mr. de Blasio in disdain.
While the answer would almost certainly be no, supporters of Mrs. Clinton and former members of her staff appear to have been happy to let the speculation spread from closed-door gatherings of donors and allies, where it has been discussed among the many hypothetical future jobs Ms. Clinton might pursue, to more public forums.
“Obviously, that’s a conversation point for everybody; it’s a logical point after you ask, ‘What is Hillary going to do next?’” said Alan Patricof, a fund-raiser, donor and longtime friend of Mrs. Clinton and her husband, former President Bill Clinton. “Whether that’s a university presidency, the head of some women’s and children’s group, something international, or even mayor of New York.”
That’s how she ended up being a New York Senator – media and pundits yapping incessantly about it until becomes a foregone conclusion. Of course, that didn’t work in the Presidential election, but national voters are a little bit brighter than New Yorkers.
Why would New Yorkers vote for a “lifelong Cubs fan”?
(I know she’d win if she runs, de Blasio is an embarrassment-even for the five boroughs)
So, NYC can go from one embarrassment to another? Works for me.
One to another to another.
Remember, Bloomberg ran that freak show before DeBlasio showed up.
New Yorkers like to do that sort of stuff.
They elected RFK to be their senator and then they elected Boston born and raised Bloomberg to be “da Mayor.”
I guess mayor of NYC is the consolation prize for failed presidential candidates. God help them if they elect her. Or maybe I should say they deserve everything they get if they do.
Time out troops. Chappaqua, New York is not in New Yawk City. But residency has not stopped her before. No problemo, Bro. Al Sharpton can hook her up with an apartment in Harlem. Bill is rejoicing about the thought of her having to camp out in the city. Party time in Chappaqua.
Top,
please get it correct. the majority of the counties in NY are Republican and would fit right in on this site.
The generalization that all New Yorkers are left wing, LGBT loving, commie sympathizing, tree Hugging hippies is incorrect. Quite the contrary most of the state makes wet and wild WV seem absolutely cosmopolitan compared to where i live.
The fact that NYC is all of the above things should not imping on the values that the rest of the state has.
My soap box is now open for the next person….
The City elected her as senator – not too much of a stretch to see this happen. As a life long resident of upstate, I throw up in my mouth a little every time I see her or Bill refer to NY as their home state. Damned carpetbaggers…
One positive thing to see in this is the amount of butthurt Andy Cuomo would display in having someone with a bigger ego and more political power than him to spar with in his own backyard.
They are BOTH freaking embarrassments to the human race!!
The same reason the dumbshits in the city voted for life long Red Socks fan. A man who is absolutely in love with Zimbabawes Mugabe
She won a Senate seat in New York. I would expect NYC Mayor would be somewhat easier for the Clinton Machine to stuff.
Yeah, but this time she doesn’t have Bill pardoning leaders of religious group that would steer votes toward her.
Yep, all you need to do in order to get elected in NY is buy a yankees cap and say you’ll move to NY some day and boom, you’re elected!
Oh, what a delicious thing to contemplate. Hillary as mayor. Yeah.
(Is it April 1?)
No, Clinton would win a landslide. Of course, first she has to be eligible. That would require her to change residences to NYC. I hear Trump Tower has an available condo. This is just kick-a-can journalism. There is no substance to it whatsoever, just silly musings by the butthurts. Back in August, a North African country’s second largest city had its mayor suddenly replaced with an intel officer, a colonel. Maybe Wideload would be interested in that job. I certainly would support her efforts. The country is Lybia and the city Benghazi.
Before “Dave” tells me I misspelled Libya, I had better correct it. Or not.
At least you didn’t insert an a.
So instead of a big apple in Times Square it would be a big ass sliding down a pole.
Ick.
A Wideload parked in Times Square?
Cankles in Central Park?
A Hildabeast at the Central Park Zoo?
And there goes the neighborhood. And after Giuliani worked so hard to clean up the place.
She was already bought and paid for by Wall Street, so why not be the Mayor to do their bidding?
…or maybe she could just get over herself and be a grandma. Life is short. Don’t fuck it up any more than you have to.
Right, or open a cookie bakery.
She doesn’t give a fuck about Chelsea or her kid except as political props.
Think she/demon still carry’s hot sauce in her purse?
‘it’s a logical point after you ask, ‘What is Hillary going to do next?’
Oh! I know this one! How about giving blow jobs over at the school for the blind? I mean, blind guys want blow jobs too ya know. And they’re the only ones who would possible take one off of her.
But the cough!
Sparks my boy, me thinks you may have missed the mark. What Mz. Hillary does is insert tongue into body parts of th estranged wife of Anthony Weiner, she does not do men.
BiteMe & Lurch will soon need something to occupy their time.
She’s win it in a heartbeat, most NYC Voters are sheeple that vote however the liberal mess media’s lemmings tell them to AND since she’s D-rat she’ll get ALL of the dead people’s vote.
Oh dear God…
From one embarrassment to another to another: Bloomberg to De Blasio to Clinton. Won’t New Yawk ever learn?
Guess it might work a little for the Clintoon Foundation. Puts her in some kind of position in the financial capital of the US. But why? She’d be no more qualified there than she was in the Senate or the State Department.
For the graft, of course.
Wow, wouldn’t that give Preet Bharara a nice, fat corruption target to go after!
Why couldn’t she have been visiting the World Trade Center on 9/11?
Eh, maybe we shouldn’t be wishing death on peeps we dislike or trivializing 9/11. Just a thought.
Please, God, no… (I still have family near NYC, don’t want stupid left/libtard-incited bad stuff to happen to them.)
Clinton being elected Senator from the State of NY was the reason I gave up my NYS citizenship and officially moved to Connecticut (my active duty station at the time) in late-2000.
