OPINION: The Big Apple begs for relevance
Dear Republicans,
As a New Yorker, I am used to living in the city with the best restaurants, tallest buildings and most famous museums. But every four years we become an afterthought.
We have to suffer the indignity of seeing the media flock to Podunk, Ohio and Nowheresville, Florida, to gauge the voting preferences of yokel locals who have never tasted a decent bagel. But this election year, the Democrats are sure to nominate a New Yorker (Bernie may have abandoned us, but he still speaks Brooklynese, so we’ll claim him), and if you Republicans do the same we will be a battleground state!
