This actually hadn’t occurred to me before, but if Clinton wins the Democratic nomination, and Giuliani wins the GOP nod, and Michael Bloomberg runs as a 3rd Party candidate (as some whispering has it), then we’ve got ourselves an all New York Presidential race.
Is there any precedent for something like that?

I love NY air! It smells okay, just like gas, not that gas is a great cover smell!
It’s 9/11 cover ups. None of these can win.
As a democrat may I scold you for even suggesting clinton winning for us. do you know how many democrats are shuddering at the thought. Many refuse to vote if she does get the nomination.
my hunch is you’d have to look in the late 1700s early 1800s to find a similar situation (sans the 3rd party candidate).
What will the South and West do, write in their own candidates.
As a Democrat I’d be proud to support Hillary Clinton!
I refuse to support Clinton because frankly I hate having immediate family of former presidents in the White House. And yes this applies to Dubya and John Quincy. It reeks of a flawed system that doesn’t search hard enough for viable candidates for the job, relying instead on emotion and easy marketing.
Aside from being the wife of a former president, I think she’s been an unspectacular senator and I’ve never heard a speach from her that moved me in the slightest.
What Sam said.
As I’ve said early and often and for many years now, I pray for a presidential ballot in my adult voting lifetime that does NOT have a Dole, Clinton, Bush, or Kennedy on it. Seven down, no telling how many more to go.
In 1860, two Illinoisans ran for President: Abraham Lincoln and Stephen Douglas. There were two other candidates in the race as well: John C. Breckinridge and John Bell.
I guess the idea of an all NY ballot is the wet dream of all of those who want the United States to have a virtual one party system.
