“Pressure is building on Republican mayoral nominee Curtis Sliwa to drop his long-shot quest for Gracie Mansion. A stream of prominent Big Apple conservatives — including The Post’s editorial board and Sliwa’s own radio boss, John Catsimatidis — have sagely implored him to step aside and endorse Andrew Cuomo. The absurdity of that sentence underscores the stakes. Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani’s ideas are so backward — and represent such a grave threat to the livelihoods and lives of New Yorkers, and to their city’s moral standing — that an alliance with Cuomo is not just conceivable for many Republicans, but imperative. Polling indicates the former governor is the only one with any chance of sending Mamdani packing — and only if Sliwa drops out.” [editor’s note: Still believe that the only just move is for Cuomo to drop out, and see if that head to head could save the Big Apple from its apparent fate – SAT] [additional editor’s note: It wouldn’t … even if Sliwa won – TLK] (10/21/25)
