Newsletter

Happy Birthday New York! Well, it’s not actually quite New York’s birthday and it’s not actually quite happy, but with high profile New York birthdays happening over the last few weeks (Gov. Paterson’s on May 20th and Mayor Giuliani’s on May 28th) it seems appropriate to take some time out of our day and ask just what it is we New Yorkers are or should be celebrating.

Dear Rudy Supporters,

According to an article in the February 23rd edition of the New York Times by Danny Hakim and Nicholas Confessore, entitled “Conceding Errors, Paterson Vows to Regain Trust,” in the short time immediately after he became Governor, Gov. Paterson assembled his staff for an organizational conference to shape the agenda, “But the real surprise, said several people who attended, came when Mr. Paterson spoke on the second day. He seemed unfocused, even rambling, in a brief appearance, offering few clues about what he wanted to do as governor and leaving many staff members confused and frustrated. Almost a year into his governorship, Mr. Paterson still seems adrift, many who interact with him say, and even some in his own party are privately questioning whether he has the capacity to lead the state.” [1]

Dear Rudy Supporters,

This is the first installment of what we hope will become a weekly newsletter where we at DraftRudy.com will strive to bring you updates about what's happening in New York State. We want to talk about what real change in government – the kind that Rudy would bring to New York – means. First, let me take this opportunity to welcome you and thank you very much for joining our group. Thank you for voicing your support for our cause: Rudy Giuliani for Governor of New York in 2010!
