Surprise Threat to Pirro Bid

SURPRISE THREAT TO PIRRO BID

JEANINE PIRRO'S little-known opponent for the GOP nomination for U.S. Senate is close to winning crucial backing from the small but influential Conservative Party, insiders say.

Such a success by former Yonkers Mayor John Spencer would deny Pirro a vital endorsement in what would already be — if she is the GOP nominee — an uphill battle against incumbent Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

And it would be the latest blow for Pirro, the outgoing Westchester County district attorney whose campaign has been marred by stumbles and fund-raising shortfalls.

Tactically, Spencer, a tough-talking ex-Marine who is far more conservative than Pirro on a range of issues, plans to use Conservative Party backing as leverage to convince many still-uncommitted GOP leaders to back him as the only candidate with a chance to defeat Clinton.

"Spencer clearly has the edge on Jeanine," Conservative Party Chairman Michael Long told The Post.

Pirro has done an outstanding enough job of threatening HER OWN bid, thank you.

:headbang:
rocknation

last month was the icing on the cake.
...Page 10? Does someone have page 10?...shuffle shuffle...er...er...Hillary...

Is it wrong of me to laugh at her discomfort? :rofl:

Is it a surprise?

Absolutely not.

Will it make a damn bit of difference in how badly Pirro gets trounced by Clinton?

Absolutely not.

:evilgrin:

It's a handy way for the Republicans to scuttle the Pirro nomination before she embarrasses himself.

but nevermind ;)

They both run for their egos, not to win.

Seriously, what other reason could there be for that kind of behavior?

:rofl:

It's not surprise.
