Two downstate state senators defect to GOP.

May the rebellion grow and envelop the Feds.

Since this is an example of Dems switching to Pubbies, the NY Times will be all over the "political convenience" and "power grabbing".

Of course, when a Pubbie switches to being a Dem, they are "highly principled".

This really sounds good.

On the other hand, most NY Republicans are not Conservative.

It is sort of a lose, lose situation.

Folks, please get a grip. There are more than a few New York State Republican Senators that are RINOs. MANY of them took campaign money from NYSUT and are beholden to the teacher’s unions.

Not all is as it appears. The dust needs to settle first.

One thing I don’t like is the televised proceeding of the Senate being disrupted during this time. That’s the sort of stuff that happens in other countries...

I think you all may be reading too much into this! The article doesn’t say they switched parties. It says they voted with Republicans on the issue to change the leadership. Or did I misinterpret the article?

It does not matter one bit.

The Republicans held the Senate in NY State for 5 decades, and we still live in the most highly taxed and over-regulated State in the Union.

Why Mr. Espada and Mr. Monserrate suddenly defected on Monday afternoon was not immediately clear. Both men are under investigation by the authorities. The state attorney general’s office is investigating a health care agency, Soundview HealthCare Network, that Mr. Espada ran until recently. And Mr. Monserrate, who was indicted on felony assault charges in March stemming from an attack on his companion, would automatically be thrown out of office if convicted.
