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.

Probably, because only a lunatic would stay in NYC now. De Blasio even said he was going to raise taxes, can you imagine? Before he’s even elected “I am going to steal your money” But that’s NYC for you: Complete utter morons who would actually vote for a guy who tells them to their face he is going to steal their money. Good, because when I was foolish enough to live there I noticed almost every week Obama would visit for fundraisers held by the richest New Yorkers. Now they have Obama and de Blasio together who are going to steal their money instead of asking for it. Karma sucks. That horseface jackass Sarah Jessica Parker held a huge fundraiser for Obama and on a Friday no less during rush hour. I hope they steal every last penny from that bitch.

We got rid of the candidate with the Muslim Brotherhood wife. Now we have de Blasio, who wants to take apart the excellent counterterror apparatus. It seems we can’t get a break.

Exacatickly. A common practice in NYC politics. Two people who couldn’t care less about each other get married to win elections.

How long until billboards pop up with a Bloomberg picture and a ‘Miss Me Yet?” caption?

Sultan Knish, via FR, has some predictions about NYC, which undoubtedly will come true:

It's De Blasio Time

That's for sure. Can't get a break from the people to the left, right, and back of you voting for their own demise. Sane voters of NYC, unite! Stand up and fight against this Obama mini me getting elected.

BTW, John Bolton REALLY stuck it to Odungo during Aaron Klein's Investigative Reporting program tonight on 770 AM. The stuff he pointed out about Odungo's blundering in the Middle East, O-care, hording ammo, etc. was sooo scary.

People forgot the bad old days or have moved here since and assume a low crime city is the natural state of affairs. Democrat in all but name Bloomberg purchased two and won one Republican nomination so the hoi polloi assume he’s a Republican. After 12 years of Bloomberg, they FEEL the nees foe a change. Rational thought and basic knowledge are not required.

ON THE ROAD TO SERFDOM - 73% OF NEWYORKERS PUT THEIR DESTINY IN THE HANDS OF A COMMUNIST

“Posterity! you will never know how much it cost the present generation to preserve your freedom! I hope you will make a good use of it. If you do not, I shall repent in Heaven that I ever took half the pains to preserve it.” - John Adams, Letter to Abigail Adams, 1777

“When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion - when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing - when you see that money is flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors - when you see that men get richer by graft and by pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you - when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice - you may know that your society is doomed.” AYN RAND

Obama/de Blasio’s fait accompli – Under de Blasio New York will suffer a worse devastation than 9/11.

They will because he’s made it quite clear he is also doing away with terror prevention. Can you imagine? NYC the #1 target of terrorists everywhere and this jackass is doing away with terror prevention. The Muzzies are going to be blowing stuff up like popcorn on a hotplate. I moved out last year, best thing I ever did. My brother is still there and I’m telling him get the F out now before it’s too late. Crime is going to go through the roof, the commies are going to steal your money and at any moment you can be another fatality from the “religion of peace”.
