Schumer Makes the Case for Obama-Clinton '08
May 12, 2008 | 10:53 a.m.
Eliot Brown passes on a couple of Chuck Schumer quotes from a Crain's breakfast today at the Grand Hyatt in Midtown:
On the viability of an Obama/Clinton ticket: “At first I thought it wasn’t but I do think it could be.”
On voters: “They’re worried, and they want somebody to come in and say I can help a little bit you with healthcare, and paying for college, and all these things, and a Democratic candidate is more likely to do it. Hillary and Barack have both run very strong and great races, and I think they’d be a strong ticket together.”
