Clintons ready to help de Blasio in mayoral race

Bill de Blasio can cou♓nt on campaign help from Bill and Hillary Clinton if he needs it to become the city’s ꦦnext mayor, sources said Wednesday.

With speculation swirling that Hillary Clinton will make an♕other run for the White House, sources who’ve worked closely with the Clintons said it makes good politics for the power couple to stump with the presumptive Democratic nominee.

“If you’re running for president, wouldn’t you want to be able to say you helped elect a Democrat running for m🌞ayor of New York City?” said consultant Hank Sheinkopf, a media consultant for Bill Clinton’s 1996 re-election camღpaign.

Scheink🀅opf also no💦ted, “Bill and Hillary are loyal to the people who work for them.”

It just so happens that de Blasio was campaign manager for Hillary’s sꦰuccessful 2000 Senate campaigꦍn in New York.

An insider who worked for Hilla🧸ry’s 2008 presidential campaign said, “If (de Blasio) asks, the Clintons wouldn’t say no. If it’s a close race, de Blasio will bring in the star power and the Clintons do take care of their own.”

Their support may be overblown. The Clintons have campaigned for previous Demওocratic candidates🐭 — but all lost.

Mark Green, the 2001 Democratic nominee, recalls the Cl𓄧intons attending several events for him. He was defeated by Mike Bloomberg.

“I’m sure two of th🌞e most powerful Democrats in the country will campaign with the Democratic nominee for mayor. That goes witho💝ut saying,” said Green.

In 2005, the former prཧesident held a campaign event in The Bronx for Democratic nominee Fernando Ferrer — who also lost🍸 to Bloomberg.

Then-Sen. Clinton appeared with Ferrer as well.

When he was president, Bill Clinton was a featured speaker for May🍰or David Dinkins’ re-election bid in 1993 ( he lost to Rudy Giuiiani) and for Ruth Messinger in 1997 ( she also lost to incumbent Giuliani).

And one of de Blasio’s closest confidantes, Patrick Gaspard, the new US ambassador to South Afr🐼ica, is President Obama’s former political director — raising the possibility that 𒐪Obama will swoop in for a campaign appearance.
