Whoever ascends to mayor will truly have a brave new world to govern. Joe Lhota is the only man in the field who has the qualifications for the job. It is his Libertarian leanings that he will need to rely on most as mayor as his state and country face great challenges and it will be up to him sitting in the center of the known universe to solve. On another important note, I certainly would never want a piss-ant legislator like Scott Stringer controlling our tax dollars. Let Kristin Davis have that job.Conrad Ericsonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-492879795117494616.post-40952971291057227102013-04-20T10:35:58.605-04:002013-04-20T10:35:58.605-04:00Weiner has "name recognition" but is fro...Weiner has "name recognition" but is from his outrageous fall from grace. While Democrats have the edge in NYC and the demographic of voters is ever shifting towards minorities, many of them have not been entirely happy with recent developments. A Republican like Lhota could squeak in given his current endorsement by the Libertarian Party, a place where both disaffected Republicans and Democrats have increasingly been drifting to. Lhota represents the best qualities of the Giuliani reign while also embracing social acceptance. With so many potential candidates on the mayoral ballot Lhota could end up receiving the most votes.
