I got nothing really to base this off of, and I’m writing this while RCP is downgrading the seat – but it feels like Gillibrand’s lead is perilously (to her) shaky and could collapse at any reversal, darn it. Then again, I’ve always been less willing than many to concede NY, so that may be coloring my perceptions.
Anyway. DioGuardi for [Senate]. [And here I was happy to have gotten the name spelled right. Thanks, Constant Reader IJB.]
It’ll clearly happen after a dramatic breaking with the administration this fall over foreign policy.
Clearly.
Bill Clinton to raise money for NY Dem challenger
WASHINGTON – In a slap at President Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton will headline a fundraiser for a New York congresswoman challenging White House-backed Sen. Kristen Gillibrand in the state’s Democratic primary.
Clinton has not endorsed in the race, but his efforts to help Rep. Carolyn Maloney could be seen as a snub to Gillibrand and the Obama White House. Matt McKenna, a spokesman for Clinton, said he will be attending a July 20 fundraiser in New York.

Hey, it’s as good an answer as any other, right? Personally, I’d consider Clinton a trade-up, myself.
