"I didn't quite realize how insular Peggy was--I knew New Yorkers were, but I didn't know Peggy had picked this up."
Did you read the last paragraph? It sums up the article and makes the point of Hillary!s insulation. Peggy may be insular but she does write well and makes a good point there at the end.
That, if the Dems are going to nominate someone from Chappaqua who runs well in Flatbush, that the Republicans need to counter with someone who really knows the Lower East Side?
