(CNN) – Former President Bill Clinton will headline a fundraiser for his wife’s Senate successor in New York City next month, Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand announced Monday.
“Both Secretary of State Clinton and President Clinton embody the type of leadership I hope to bring to the State of New York,” said Gillibrand, in a message to supporters. “[A]nd President Clinton's willingness to show his early support for my candidacy could not mean more to me.”
Rep. Carolyn McCarthy of Long Island has been mentioned as a possible challenger to Gillibrand in a 2010 Democratic primary race. Rep. Peter King, a Republican from Nassau County, may seek to represent the GOP in the general election contest.

Judy from PA,
"I wouldn't buy a used car from Obama."
How ironic, since you bought 8 years of bull from your former president. My President Rocks!
Gillibrand is sure headin' in the right direction in seekin' Hillary's help for her political career. Both, actually, may benefit from each other by learnin'/teachin' a thing or two.
Bill you doing this for your wife Big Dance in "12".
Great Gillly...............Now we can take back NY 20
***If I were running for any political position I would sure like the Clinton's on my team. You can bash them all you want, but they
have both devoted years to help this country and Bill Clinton is one of the most beloved Presidents of all times.*****

Beloved by unintelligent sheeple. He was an embarrassment that should just fade away into obscurity. He made the US a laughingstock to the rest of the world. He should not have been allowed to continue after he was impeached.
