    Guy also balanced the budget in NY, hammered teachers unions, and is pro-business. he won't win as he would have to run as independent and there isn't enough support for him but there was a great op ed in the wsj today about how he could start a 3rd party - more of a moderate/centrist party. He did exactly what a governor should do.

    And just to be clear - he didn't ban soda - what he wanted to do was just say nothing over 16oz could be served at restaurant basically right? You could have as many re-fills as you wanted - just couldn't get 24oz cup of it. That doesn't seem out of hand. The only place I really saw it affecting was delivery joints that couldn't deliver 2-liter bottles anymore - but thats really it right? Plus it never ended up happening right?

    I doubt he has a chance but no one heard of Barrack Obama before 2008 either.

    I am outside of NY. I have heard of him. Likely no chance but what if he runs against Bernie and Trump. Who does he steal votes from? Lots of people may think he is the better of those......

    If you believe that I'm guessing you can get generous odds on it somewhere. I really don't see this happening.
