New York 9: Stunning Repudiation of Chuck Schumer

The Washington Examiner ^ | 09/14/11 | Michael Barone

“his point about Schumer is right on - he, perhaps more than any other Democrat, is responsible for the vitriol and outright lies coming from the Democrats since Bush was elected. It’s nice to see Chuckie take a sharp slap across the face.”

—Right on.

[liberalh8ter]

I wish Upchuck would just step down. Since he won't be up for re-election until 2016, we're stuck with this scumbag for a while. There needs to be a serious push for term limits to stop travesties like Schumer. He's a poster child for DC ills.

[Dilbert San Diego]

But if that happens, then there’s no convention speech on a stage with fake Greek columns for Obama next year.

I was really wondering if Obama will move his acceptance speech next year from the convention center to the football stadium in Charlotte, as he did at his convention in Denver in ‘08.

“It takes a Carter to make a Reagan.”

Unfortunately, I don’t see a Reagan anywhere on the horizon. True, any of the Republican candidates would be a vast improvement over FUBO, but none of them are Reaganesque, except perhaps Sarah Palin ( who is in the process of destroying any hope of being the nominee).

Is Turner a member of the Tea Party? know the dems ran ads affiliating him with the evil Tea Party...lol..it backfired

[wrhssaxensemble]

I agree 100%. But Obama is too full of himself and has too big of an ego to step down. I think you’d see Biden being replaced far before you’d see Obama refusing to run again. And remember those people back in 2008 saying we should get rid of presidential term limits so this guy could serve 3-8 terms? hahaha

...Schumer... perhaps more than any other Democrat, is responsible for the vitriol and outright lies coming from the Democrats since Bush was elected. It's nice to see Chuckie take a sharp slap across the face.

My favorite photo of Schumer:

Watch for the first batch of Dems to magically “convert” to being Republican.

These fakers need to be tracked and voted out.

[Albion Wilde]

The only solution which might make everyone happy is if Obama decides not to run for re-election, which would open up the Democrat primaries to Hillary and others without it being a case of Obama being pushed out.

DNC will make him an offer he can't refuse. The only persons objecting to the plan will be M'Antoinette and her mother, having to give up all that taxpayer bling.

[NFHale]

So...could one then say that Schmuckie Schumer had his Weiner yanked????

I’m just sayin’...

This is great news...we won the Nevada seat too, I believe?

It just hit me.

Now the dim party elders will allow Hillary to use that hollow ring of hers on her sworn enemy. Hill gets to run for Prez and Obama gets a bunch of elementary schools named after him.

That guy is gonna need a squad of Food Tasters.

I’m only half joking. Vince Foster and a string of others found that you cannot cross Hillary and get away with it.

FoxNews Cavuto a few minutes ago, talking to Ed Koch about Bill Clinton's robocall for the Democrat in this district:

"Clinton sounded like he had no enthusiasm. He sounded like he was..........a hostage."

Schwing! :-)

Or...In the words of the Immortal Long Duc Dong, from “16 Candles”...

“Nooooo more yanky my cranky!!!”

[shield]

Schumer is possessed by the devil. I can't even look at him...the evil comes out of him so strongly it is sickening.

[SJSAMPLE]

Then tell him to come on over and get on the team for the big win!

[the invisib1e hand]

i just wanna give a big shout-out to all the new york hating freepers who think The City is nothing but leftists and faggots. For every one of those, there’s a hundred sane people, too busy living their lives and making this a great city to bother to email you about their existence.

[oyez]

Schumer will surely continue to serve as senator as long as he wants (since direct election of senators came in, no incumbent Democratic senator from New York has been defeated for reelection).

But there is a first for everything.
