NY Values are to cry 9-11 when someone points out you are a rude liberal.

NYC would collapse without the massive federal money injections/schemes of TARP and QE.
And the massive amounts of financial fraud to which no one is held accountable.
The bubbles with burst eventually.
And then we will see real NYC values - like we saw in the 1970s...

I had a Trumpbot telling me that Houston values are the same as NYC values because Houston had a lesbo mayor. I don't argue with intellectually dishonest people.

Ted really screwed up doubling down on his New York Values statement at the debate. That was a massive tactical mistake. It was a "youth and inexperience" moment. Ted will have many more of those if he continues to punch above his level.
That said I will not hesitate to vote for Ted if he is the nominee.

You're thinking of Shelia Jackson Lee. NY has Charlie Rengel.

A lot of New Yorkers who are supposedly so tough are sure acting thin-skinned.
To: DaveyB
While I like both of these candidates and will vote for the eventual winner of the two, I sense that Sen. Cruz made a tactical error in his assessment of NY values. The topic has no intrinsic value electorally and actually is divisive, something we already have in our current leadership (or lack there-of). IMO, Cruz will never win NY, his opinion in this matter would have better served him had he kept it to himself.
To: TBBT
RedState may as well just forward its URL to Cruz’s site.
Zero credibility and probably a pretty dim future as a blog.

Let’s reverse it for a minute. What would the result be if Trump were to insult Texas?
He wouldn’t, because that would be a huge unforced error. Therein lies the heart of the matter: Trump rattled Cruz, and he made a tactical error both in the debate and in his snarky non-apology.
I’m not from NY, and don’t care about that. It’s the underlying judgement issue with Ted which caused me to stop supporting him long ago. (TPA, Corker, etc).
