Are words I hear around Albany quite often. She gets crushed in Long Island, and did relatively poorly in NYC during the last general election. I don’t agree that Stefanik would beat her -- Stefanik is just too Trumpy. But a moderate Republican in the mold of Pataki who is not full-on MAGA would beat her. I’m just not sure there are any more of those left in the Republican Party.
