Joe Lhota a other Robert Moses?

The polls(oh those polls we love them when they agree with us,but when they go opsite direction we dismiss them and while they aren't always right if they all are in same direction they are usually right)
Joe Lhota headed for epic defeat, maybe one for the record books.Yet Joe Lhota has accomplish much as a back room room operator in government,indeed,his tenure at M.T.A where after superstorm Sandy,he got system up and working in a few days,a remarkable accomplish and of course he was Rudy Giuliani's right hand men.
Where does Moses fit in ? No,not that Moses but man who thought he was Moses.I mean,Robert Moses the ultimate back room operator.I mean,there are some similarities between Lhota and Moses:both were Republicans,in a place where Republicans are seem as aliens,both ran office and got clobbered(Lhota is week away from clobbered but it looks like sure thing)Mores ran for governor of New York in 1934 against Herbert Lehman;both had mentors,in Moses case Alfred Smith(when Moses ran for governor as Republican,he was called an Al Smith Republican) in Lhota's case Giuliani,and both were very power movers are shakes behind the scenes.
Of course,Moses at least until this point was much larger player,indeed, a man who casted large shadow in Empire State which is fitting for Moses had an Empire ego.Perhaps from 1930's until late 1950's not person had more power in New York then Robert Moses.Yes, although unelect he had more power than mayors or governors of New York.His downfall was trying to built thruways thru Manhattan,but meet resistance especially from Greenwich Village,and resistance for once was successful,indeed,it in a way,lead to the preservation movement
