After Page Six floated some Republicans’ hope that Tom Golisano would slide over to run for Senate, The Politicker emailed a Republican-close-to-Golisano for comment.
The response:
WELD RUNNING FOR SENATE? Excellent idea……it’s a job he ran for before so he obviously wants it.
-TG is a MANAGER who ran a billion dollar company
– He has no interest in going to Washington DC
– this is a guy made billions and STAYED in Rochester
– a real New Yorker.
Besides Weld would join a fraternity of carpetbaggers who have run for the Senate in NY — Hillary, RFK and Ramsey Clark.
And Weld can raise $50M according to him – enough to compete with Hil.
Back to the drawing board…
