Susan Molinari mulling run against Sen. Gillibrand
A showdown between Democratic U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, left, and former Republican Rep. Susan Molinari is a possibility this fall.
STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Former GOP Rep. Susan Molinari is looking at running against Democratic U.S. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand this year.
Ms. Molinari, 52, who left Congress in 1997 and currently lives in Virginia, said that given the health care debate and the upcoming trials of accused 9/11 terrorists here, "it's an important time to have aggressive leadership in the Senate" in the tradition of Daniel Patrick Moynihan, Alfonse D'Amato and Charles Schumer.
