Maybe Rudy should announce he won't be contesting the actual Republican Convention, and will be waiting until later in 2008 to make his move?

1. HRC would have beaten him in 2000 and either HRC or OB or JE would in 2008.

My firm was polling in NYS in 2000.

2. NY really likes

3. McCain will be the GOP nominee as I've been saying for four years. nt

6. The old fossil seems pretty beatable to me

Good news, if it happens this way...?

4. Rudy is toast. Done. Kaput.

5. What are the odds that Rudy drops out if he loses in NY?
