@RealFeminist Obama Rebuke: GOP Takes Weiner Seat! Will Debbie Go Down Next in FL? #tcot

Good point! If a prominent Jewish Democrat like Weprin can lose in a 40% Jewish district to a Christian Republican over 2 issues: Obama's hostility to Israel and (2) the Ground Zero Mosque, there may well be lots of nervous Jewish Democrats waking up their pollsters tonight.

Everybody seems to be getting a bit too excited here.

Just wait....

The Dems are working very hard in the dark counting rooms to manufacture enough votes to steal this.

They always do. It is now their standard procedure.

I bet you that the Dem weasel hasn’t conceded yet. He won’t until/unless it becomes clear they can’t commit enough fraud to steal it.

Just watch.

This was Chuck U's old seat. I would love to see his mug!

GOP wins in NY House race, seen as Obama rebuke

excerpt

With about 70 percent of precincts reporting late Tuesday, Turner had 53 percent of the vote to Weprin's 47 percent.

--snip--

Turner has vowed to bring business practicality to Washington and push back on spending and taxes.

The race was supposed to be an easy win for Democrats, who have a 3-1 ratio registration advantage in the district.

Weprin, a 56-year-old Orthodox Jew and member of a prominent Queens political family, seemed a good fit for the largely white, working-class district, which is nearly 40 percent Jewish.

Revenge is the best thing in the world - except for a nice MLT - mutton, lettuce and tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomato is ripe.

Proof that the dog catcher could beat Barack Obama.

It means we need to nominate a real conservative, because that is not only is there an excellent chance of winning but the best opportunity in decades of reversing this socialist nightmare.

OMG the title on Drudge is HYSTERICAL! “Revenge of the Jews; Dem seat turns in NYC”

Oh now that is PRICELESS! Good on you NY Jews! That cretin is NO GOOD for Israel or anyone else!

This is good news!

I was a bit sad when Weiner stopped making up the stories about his emailed pictures and he resigned. It was a blast while he kept it up, he had a great name Weiner for a guy emailing pictures of (his) Weiner.,

I would have loved to have seen/heard Pelosi when she figured out she had been duped.

Reason triumphs over habit!

May it continue to do so in future elections.

One governor who liked high-priced hookers, one congressman who liked to photograph his wing-wang. Which NY Dem elected official will be next to be found incapable of discretely dealing with the fact of their male genitalia?

As you may have guessed they are NOT happy about this at DU, pretty funny comments there enjoy.

Look at the district party affiliation breakdown on that district (the 9th):

http://www.elections.state.ny.us/NYSBOE/enrollment/congress/congress_nov08.pdf

3:1 Dem:GOP registration ratio. Not even close to enough indys to make up the difference. Try as I might there’s no way to read the returns against these numbers and conclude other than that a strong contingent of registered Democrats marched out to the polls and voted against their own party.

I believe he won, the last real numbers I saw posted seemed hard to overcome, but let’s not forget AP called for Kloppenberg in WI, too.
