Lazio: New York
built 633 days ago
In 2000, Lazio ran for the Senate but was defeated by Hillary Clinton in the race to succeed Daniel Patrick Moynihan. His comparatively late entry into the race (five months before Election Day) followed New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani's decision not to run for the Senate. After the defeat, he became the President and CEO of Financial Services Forum.

Lazio should be invoking retiring senator Pat Moynihan who has long argued that New Yorkers pay far more to Washington than they get back in return. Lazio should emphasize the pro-growth, pro-capital-formation, and pro-worker-benefits of his plan to deduct Social Security tax payments from the tax returns filed by middle-income households in the 15% and 28% brackets.

[W]hen Mr. Lazio brought up the debate, the crowd came alive–and so did Mr. Lazio. He told the locals he was appalled by the idea that someone from Arkansas, Chicago and, worst of all, Washington wanted to represent them. He told them how "fearsome loyal" he was to New York.

Lazio comes with a good pedigree for New York's ethnic politics: He is an Italian-American Catholic from the suburbs. He is married and has two young daughters. In his acceptance speech, he reminisced about his immigrant grandmother's meatballs.

Four months after New York Republicans turned to Mr. Lazio as the G.O.P.'s best shot at defeating Hillary Rodham Clinton, the Congressman has yet to materialize into the fearsome Hillary-slayer they envisioned. He is trailing in the polls; he holds only a small lead in the traditional Republican stronghold of upstate New York; the suburban mothers and moderate Jewish voters that were supposed to desert Mrs. Clinton seem to be warming to her; and Mr. Lazio has been ridiculed as everything from a busboy to a used car salesman. Meanwhile, his campaign has been buffeted by a roar of conflicting and self-contradictory advice: He should attack her more, but stop invading her space. He has to raise more money, but stop spending so much time fund-raising. He has to energize his languishing conservative base, but reach out to moderate swing voters.

After a flurry of chances Cesare Prandelli’s men took the lead when Franco Semioli dribbled past Lazio new boy Radu. The midfielder twisted and turned the Romanian defender and beat Muslera with a neat finish. It was a harsh introduction to Italian football for the 18 year old.
