Wonder what the "but that could only work in New York" crowd is going to say about this one...

    The same thing, at least unless and until he actually takes office. Their refrain hasn't been that he couldn't win the primary, it's that it would be bad for him to win the primary because the mythical "swing voter" prefers the centrists that have been losing for at least a decade to anyone with actual policies.
