Supporter: Carolyn Maloney for Hillary's Senate Seat
With the rise of Hillary Clinton's presidential prospects comes the escalating chatter about who would get to fill out the remainder of her senate term. The speculation so far has been mostly limited to half-hearted denials denials by politicians, blind quotes from supporters and tea-leaf reading by reporters.
But yesterday, I got one person to go on the record. Above is a clip of Trudy Mason, a notable character in Manhattan politics, making the case, without apology, for Representative Carolyn Maloney to get the Hillary seat.
YOU GO GIRLFREN' TRUDY.
Seriously Azi? Of all people to interview for a substantive responce you pick Trudy Mason? She's an embarressment to New York Dems, let alone Carolyn Maloney. Looks like the rat squirmed into another fundraising event, without paying of course.
Trudy Mason "a woman political leader..." HAHAHAHAHAHHAH, one second let me regain my composure... HAHAHAHAHAAHA. I WAS having a lousy day!
HEY YOU GUYSSSSSSSS!Leave Trudy alone.
HEY YOU GUYSSSSSSSS!Leave Trudy alone.
Trudy Mason affects one vote. Her own.
And the single biggest way to make sure that you don't get something you want is to have the Red Ranter as your advocate.
how about nydia velazquez? she is definitely the type of fighter that ny needs in washington. and with her experience in d.c in the small business committee, i am sure she has an idea or two about fixing some of those upstate towns. eliot, do the right thing.
This video was recorded at the biannual Democratic State Committee Meeting in Garden City. Trudy Mason is the State committeewoman from the Upper East Side. She was there with Congresswooman Maloney
Trudy is right on, as always. Thank you Trudy for your well spoken wisdom.
My money is on Trudy's choice. Met her campaigning in a presidential & I ended wearing a west wing pass...surprising me as much as our opponents!
We were proud to take her into the Oval Office after Inauguration. The Secret Service Agent, who did the pre-& post sweep still asks how Big Apple Trudy is. From her, we learned to show respect to everybody working on the campaign... no matter their position. Although we had slight experience, Trudy treated me with respect, never shamed me, showed me the ropes in Manhattan. Yup, she may have been the only NYer who did not treat us like dumb hicks! Hope she comes to Iowa. She rocks!
