I’m trying to understand the difference between “New York values” and “conservative values” seeing as how in reality they both are in favor of the same things.

In fact, as I think about it, the New York value holder will tell you right to your face yeah, I’m in favor of these things, but elected conservatives will tell you I’m opposed to these things, but then go fund them all day long and lift not a finger to stop any of it. So... what am I supposed to get from that?

Now my brain has wandered onto a few other things. Since Ted has decided to insult New York values, I wonder what New Yorkers in Florida are going to think about voting for Ted Cruz.

Do you think Ted needs Florida to win? I do. There’s a lot of New Yorkers here, bud.

My brother’s wife’s parents are in Orlando. Guess where they are from. Maybe I’ll ask them what they think of this whole values thing. They are very nice people by the way.

And I find myself wondering what really is the difference between New York values and the values of every other major city in America.

They are all fairly liberal aren’t they? Run almost exclusively or even totally by democrats?

I wonder if people in such major cities my group themselves with New Yorkers in this matter and take offense to what Ted said? Now I’m just speculating on that, but you never know, right?

I get that you feel the need to defend Ted’s mistake, but my guess is your defense isn’t going to help him, and yes, he screwed up.
