Wiener’s winnie just screwed “0”
“In making clear his disagreement with Turner on social issues and many spending issues, Koch specifically said his election would send a message of protest to the Obama Administration over its support for a Palestinian State and Israel returning to its pre-1967 borders.”
Amen!
AP has it at 54 - 46.
This is wrong! The final talley was 54%-46%, with the third candidate at 0%. Whosoever wrote this article is delucional!
Hey David Gergen, looks like Americans aren’t nearly as “horrified” by the Tea Party as you thought. In fact, considering that a district full of Democrats just elected a Republican for the first time since 1922, it looks like they’re much more concerned about the socialist in chief. I’ll bet you’re relieved to know you were wrong.
Have the Dunceocrats accused him of cheating, stealing the election yet?
Without the Jewish vote, Turner would have lost. Obama’s anti-Semitism cost him a NYC Congressional district, an unthinkable event just a year ago.
My sister lives in that district, which was carved up to include as many whites as possible. Her City Counsel district used to consistently elect Serph Maltese, who ran on the Conservative Party line, so there is a pretty big residual “Archie Bunker” vote in parts of that district.
They triumphantly proclaimed Capitalism dead — and that’s okay and expected, but then they believed their own lies and acted like it was dead. — ME.
As the very deep hole that Obama has dug for himself and the Democrats fills with water, I can’t help but have this delightful sense of schadenfreude — That’s the feeling you get when somebody say’s “Hey, watch this” and then proceeds to hurt themselves doing something incredibly dumb.
The best part is after watching how Obama has reacted in the past, he’s going to just keep on digging.
This bit of news goes well with my Kona coffee
I can just hear it the talking heads spin now...’well, it isn’t an important seat anyhow, it’s going to be eliminated soon because of redistricting’.
In truth, the entire democrat party has officially been put on a suicide watch.
Let us remember that this is the district of Chuckie Schumer and Geraldine Ferraro!
That’s funny.
Because Ed Henry of FOX News (just yesterday) was saying something like “Democrat insiders are telling me that if the election were held today, Nancy Pelosi would become Speaker again because America is blaming the economy on Republicans.”
LOL!! These people are living in denial.
Thank you Socialist Workers Party.
Thankyou NY-9 for doing the right thing.
Shades of thing to come, you Liberal weenies....be afraid....be VERY afraid....we’re coming for you in 2012!!!
I just read Turner’s brief bio on Wikipedia. He’s an impressive and interesting guy.
This is one of few times I watch MSNBC..hahaha.
Such a lovely headline on this beautiful Wednesday morning.
Ahhhhh. *contented sigh*
