Despite repeated claims to the contrary, Mayor Bill de Blasio is positioning himself to be the leftist progressive alternative to Wall Street-friendly Hillary Rodham Clinton as the Democratic candidate for president, a national party operative told The Post.
De Blasios hope, the operative said, is a Draft de Blasio movement will develop among progressive activists over the next several months that will lead to the mayor being able to defeat Clinton in the primary elections next year in much the same way leftist Sen. George McGovern successfully challenged the initially front-running establishment Democratic candidate, Sen. Edmund Muskie, more than 40 years ago.

A lineup like this is so far left it makes the Republicans appear conservative by contrast. ;)
Blasio, Christie, O Malley and Grahamnesty are all very unpopular in the same districts that elected them (NYC, NJ, MD and SC), and yet they all would have us believe that the the country now wants them as POTUS.
Every-time they do an interview the inteviewer should throw this in their faces on camera.
Ha Ha Ha New York needs to support more idiots, that’s where they come to to be more stupid!
Can we at least refer to this mutt by his real name? Warren Wilhelm (aka Der Kaiser)
LOL!!! Good comment.
"Al, you goin' to the WH with me and Chirlayne."
Jimmy Carter for President in 2016. He is even older than Hillary and just as incompetent as Obama.
It is not fair that Obama has stolen Jimmy's title to Worst President in History. Let's give Jimmy another chance.
DeBlahBlah is a one-term mayor in NYC, count on it. It’s why he wants to run for POTUS now, because he knows this.
I was at a political meeting a couple of months ago and even his supporters of his candidacy are fed up of him.
Yep he is. Run Billy, run and when it is over I want you to rip ole Hill apart at the seams and you bleeding out on the sidewalk. He would be a better present than Squaw Fork Tongue.
I can imagine the left having a debate over who’s more Marxist.
Anyone who knows anything of history knows that great social changes are impossible without feminine upheaval. Social progress can be measured exactly by the social position of the fair sex, the ugly ones included.
As if they couldn’t run anyone more commie than Obama they actually say, “F#ck it! Let’s run a registered communist now”.
For starters, he sided with the thugs over police, and two officers were shot and killed in NYC at point blank. Very likely due to this mayor's political affiliations.
Lust for power can make you that blind to reality?
Absolutely.
LOL, PLEASE
He doesn’t stand a chance...
Exactly! The real secret campaign is Her Heinous's minions encouraging her fellow communist travelers to run and claim to be the true leftist. There is more than one way to triangulate in the Klintoon universe.
We need to push Hillary to the nomination. She will be easier to defeat.
I just don’t see the dims ever running a white male again, no matter how ideologically pure.
