Didn't Rangel support Hillary over Obama? What's he talking about?
Spitzer's numbers are literally better than Paterson's. God, Spitzer vs. Giuliani would be hilariously appropriate for New York. But Cuomo will run and easily win both primary and general. I also think Maloney has an excellent chance of beating Gillibrand in a primary. And let me be the first to hint at this: Caroline Kennedy lives in Maloney's district - the East Side, Midtown and Queens. If she's still interested, winning there would be a hell of a lot easier for her than statewide (though not as easy as being appointed).
A kennedy winning the famous "Silk Stocking" district. I can't think of a more appropriate district for her, then one with a bunch of famous rich white liberals.
