New York poised to usher in de Blasio as new mayor
AFP - Left-wing progressive Bill de Blasio is poised to secure a landslide victory in New York's mayoral elections next week after executing a near-flawless campaign.
De Blasio, whose public sector background and policies sit uneasily with the gigantic wealth of the establishment, appears certain of election victory, possibly by a historic margin on Tuesday.
By placing his black, former lesbian wife and teenage children center stage, he appears to have connected to ordinary middle-class families and a vastly diverse electorate, if his mammoth poll leads are anything to go by.

This could be interesting to watch -- from the other side of the Hudson -- or even further away!
He may be a libtard, but if his wife is a FORMER lesbian, he must know how to do one thing right!
He cured his wife of Lesbianism?
NYC will get what they deserve. if this marxist POS is like ‘the Dink’, he will be one term. NYers are a bit more pragmatic than the leftists on the left coast.
but we will see.
I am sure she is not a former anything. She just is there for the power.
Gadzooks! Didn't I see a porno flick... 
that started like this but she was a white Ice Capade skater before the trans-racial surgery?
What channel? What... 
channel?
Oh, there... 
it is!
Foreign media attention ping.
Actually from a crime standpoint, Bloomberg kept most of Guiliani’s policies. Even though he was a nanny-stater, he still kept crime under control.
New York deserves him.
Apparently an avowed Communist is preferable to Antony Weiner.
Broke, stupid, mugged and ugly....Welcome to New Yorkistan!
NYC is pretty much 70% leftist. It has both law abiding leftists and tribal leftists. All are voting for the communist. Guess which ones will have voters’ remorse 4 years from now.
lol
Meanwhile, across the river in New Jersey ... Governor Chris Christie has on his knees every night for more than a year, praying desperately for de Blasio to win. The stagnant economy of New Jersey could really use a shot in the arm from the relocation of successful, profitable businesses out of New York City.
How is this possible? I thought people were born gay or straight and there's nothing anyone can do to change their "orientation".
NY sure knows how to pick ‘em. Trade your Weiner for a Commie.

Flawless definition: Not tweeting naked pictures of himself, not being caught womanizing, smoking crack in a hotel room with prostitutes, or supporting radical communist groups in his anarchist pot smoking college days as a radical. Look how easy it was, if deblasio stood home locked in a closet all this time and came out on election day he would win. Why? because he is a “feed on the teet of the taxpayer” politician to support the entitlements “if its free its for me” crowd. Lota is a load! formally head of the overbloated cook the books MTA. SO FLAWLESS IS NOT TO DEBLASIOS CREDIT. He stepped in it like zero did and we all know how thats turning out
