Despite repeated claims to the contrary, Mayor de Blasio is positioning himself to be the leftist progressive alternative to Wall Street-friendly Hillary Rodham Clinton as the Democratic candidate for president, a national party operative told The Post.
De Blasios hope, the operative said, is a draft de Blasio movement will develop among progressive activists over the next several months that will lead to the mayor being able to defeat Clinton in the primary elections next year in much the same way leftist Sen. George McGovern successfully challenged the initially front-running establishment Democratic candidate, Sen. Edmund Muskie, more than 40 years ago.

You Freepers have to admit that this Fruit Cake has the perfect credentials to be a Rat presidential candidate.
Isn't Bernie Sanders already doing that?
Too many Stalinists already pondering the Presidency: Squaw Spreading Bull, Kaiser Wilhelm, the Butcheress of Benghazi, Bawlamer Maumau O’Malley & Burnout Sanders.
That list you just gave made me ill, VERY ill.
For the record, his real last name is not Italian!! We of Italian heritage here on staten island dislike him immensely. He says he changed the name to reflect his closer tis to his mother’s ethnicity. No, he just wanted to sound ethnic.
I don’t know what I want to happen. Which of these baboons is the easiest to defeat?
I get a kick out of idiots in the media (I repeat myself) going on about how “right wing” the GOP is compared to decades ago, while ignoring the fact that the Democrats now make the old Soviet hardliners look like a bunch of pansies. These peoples heroes are Che Guevera, Castro, Ho. Contrast that with the old liberal Hubert Humphrey. He wouldn’t believe that the pro-Soviet freakshow he chased out of the old Minnesota DFL are running the nation today. HHH may have been of the left, but he wasn’t a bitter anti-American hater.
REVOLUTION! No Stalinists no more
I agree, it will keep Grandma Warren out. But am all for him jumping in. It will keep the party on its course to be a regional costal party.
so stupid. the dems would never run a white, Christian, male. their whole political philosophy is running some kind of minority and then claiming the gop is racist, sexist, etc.
Seriously Wilhelm, you think America is ready for a Black lesbian first lady.....oh wait.
Someone needs to convince Bernie Sanders that a hopeless run in the rat primaries is not the answer, he needs to make a 3rd party bid!
I miss the America of my youth, i.e., the one that wasn’t so freaking Marxist.
I didn’t agree with them on most issues for sure, but Pat Moynihan was a good man who said about Clinton “we are defining deviancy down” and saw the fatherless black culture as a disaster.
I disliked Kennedy until I started reading up on home. Not in love with him now but he would HATE what the party is now. And he slashed tax rates.
Dylan was right..the times they are a changing, but they didn’t change for the better
back in the day Leninists and the Trotskyists offed each other...maybe that bloody in fighting is returning!!!
nothing like a good RAT fight
So, he hasn’t even been mayor of NY for 2 years and he wants to be President, eh? Simply amazing.
End Times.
This guy impresses me as a doofus.
Unfortunately, Lil’Marty will get a lot of the LIV vote.
Least threatening (if you don’t listen to what he is saying)and good looking.
de blasio is out of his mind if he thinks he has any creds outside commie nuevo yorke, the sanctuary freeshit commie crowd... the city is starting to revert to the dinkins days... with homeless in the train terminals and all over the street... ah the smell of urine and feces... that is the de blasio trademark stench. when is his book “i married a lesbian” going to come out? the jews genetially vote democrat and you could run a monkey and he gets their vote and they are the ones to thank for de blobio...or wahtever his name is..
