He's willing to sell out his fan-dom and soul for Red Sox fans votes, what a schill (not schilling). I'm a life-long Yankee fan and always will be, through good & bad. And will always want the worst for the Red Sox as they should for the Bx Bombers. I'm not republican nor live in NY, but if I was I wouldn't vote for him. What will he flip-flop and sell out on next. And you Red Sox fans, we Yankee fans have nothing to be jealous of. We have the championships, storied history, greatest historic players. Sox fans are the ones with the inferiority complex and cheer "Yankee's suck" over and over and labeled the Yanks the "evil empire" - grow up. You're good now, congrats, but it took over 80 years to win. Yank & Sox fans (and New Yorkers & New Englanders) should not vote for Rudy just on principal. First he dogs his 1st wife, now this, what a bum!! Yankee fans should ALWAYS cheer against the Red Sox.
