Good news in New York. Simcha Felder, a State Senator-elect (Orthodox Jew?) from Brooklyn, newly elected on the rat and Conservative party lines is caucusing with the Republicans. This happened several days ago but I’m just learning it.
The rats stand at 30 seats and are ahead in 2 races being recounted which would give them a majority. There is also a group of 4 moderate rats who could buddy up with GOP.
This is just further proof that there is a political class. They use the republican and democrat labels to keep a monopoly on government and political appointments. Our ballot choices are being manipulated. Just look what Rove did to keep Romney ahead in the Republican primaries. (He supported another candidate (Santorum), to split the votes of opponents. It ought to be illegal.)
It is time to vote out incumbents in both parties, and eliminate politics as a career. They are not a ruling class. They do not know better than us.
The incumbent class is ruining America.
The Republican is ahead in one of the races being recounted (George Amedore in SD46). If he holds on, the GOP will control the Senate (with Felder’s vote) even if none of the members of the Independent Democratic Conference vote for Skelos.
BTW, Simcha Felder beat out the Republican in the Conservative Party primary by running as a write-in. Thar Senate district is the new “Super Jewish District” in Brooklyn, and I would be shocked if Felder wasn’t an Orthodox Jew.
Yes.
