The one in pants is Weprin, who apparently chose not to wear his yarmulke to the gay pride parade. Weprin voted for gay marriage, which might be what actually costs him this election in a heavily Catholic and religious Jewish constituency.

Well I figured Weprin was the one with pants, but he might as well have been the “Devil with the blue dress on.”

The Democrats (DNC) have started running some heavy hitting, negative ads against Turner. I cannot believe anyone could take some of the garbage they are saying seriously, but it has apparently worked for them in the past, so they will keep it up. (Turner wants to take away your Social Security, etc., etc.,) I with the RNC would assist Turner and run some ads on his behalf.

If the dems lose this seat they will freak and start to seriously think about the current subtle chatter about dumping Obama. This is a deep deep blue seat that is close to flipping red.

I disagree that this lead is an indication that the dems are vulnerable although I believe they are. You would expect any Congressman who flops his weiner around would be in trouble in any election year.

“This is a deep deep blue seat that is close to flipping red.”

More like light blue. Obama got 55% here, only 2 points higher than his nationwide percentage. It’s the most Republican CD in NYC excluding Staten Island.

Nice to see the media setting the table. Let’s see the victory for us first. I expect wholesale voter fraud.
