Fred Dicker writes<\/a> on the latest Rudy rumors:<\/p>\n

“Top state Republicans will urge former Mayor Rudy Giuliani<\/a> to abandon his interest in running for governor and run instead against unelected US Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand<\/a> …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Give it a rest already. \u00a0His presidential bid was a farce and his bid to take over the NYGOP<\/a> flopped. \u00a0People do not<\/span> want him.<\/p>\n

“… The GOP’s pitch to Giuliani is expected to include the claim that the party’s only hope for a resurgence in New York is to pick up several “secondary” statewide offices, such as senator and state comptroller … Polls have repeatedly shown Giuliani … to be the Republicans’ strongest potential statewide contender for governor …”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And that’s not saying much.<\/p>\n

The state GOP’s only real hope for a resurgence is to dump the RINOs<\/a>, party hacks and politicians who ran the party into the ground in the first place including Rudy, Pataki<\/a>, Mondello<\/a>, etc. Good things will not happen for the NYGOP until these people are purged. \u00a0After that the reformation can begin.<\/p>\n
