re: #128 sagehen

I just got back from a watch party for the DeBlasio/Lohta debate; no matter the topic under discussion DeBlasio kept finding ways to work into his answer as assertion Lohta is a Tea Party Republican, and Lohta kept finding ways to work into his answer a denial of being a Tea Party Republican…

Lhota isn’t a TP GOPer, and under most circumstances, he would have attempted a run as a conservative Democrat, but this is NYC and a crowded Democrat field means candidates will flip over to the GOP, just as Rudy and Bloomberg did before.

Ultimately though, the NYC race will come down to deBlasio and Lhota’s stand on stop and frisk, and not much else. Their positions are pretty close otherwise.
