I could turn out to be wrong but I get the feeling Mamdani will turn out to be a mayor more like DeBlasio than anyone else—promising big progressive policy but ultimately hemmed in by a lot of political and systemic limits in that city. Hopefully he gets something done like Universal Pre-K—maybe the free buses (Baltimore had those when I lived in the city and may still have them).

I understand wanting a normie Dem as opposed to DSA. I DO NOT understand getting behind an old sex pest who was driven from office. Isn't a major function of a political party to elevate the next generation of leaders?

The base clearly wants new leaders. NY Dems should get the message.

Cuomo is really out here doing the most to make sure his legacy is trash with those tweets. “The son of” I bet he said that to himself in the mirror and it pumped him up so rage posted it. If a committee saw and approved that, they should fired.

Thank you for calling out elected Democrats who still believe the only constituents who matter are their billionaire donors. Hope voters show up for candidates like Zohran Mamdani, and Kat Abughazaleh. Hope the voters in PA support any Democrat who primaries Fetterman. Make centrist Democrats afraid.

Doesn’t Cuomo have enough money to STFU and just go away?

Politics is a dirty business and so many are willing to wallow in the dirt with the rest of the pigs. Apologies to pigs everywhere.

I think egomaniacal narcissists like Cuomo can never have enough money and can never willingly relinquish the power that enables their need for constant attention and control.

I am confident Mamdani is going to prevail just as long as he responds to whatever sensational thing will happen before Election Day.

And of course don't follow polls. People know what they need to do. Don't rest on laurels about polling, make sure people vote.

Apple's 1984 Macintosh commercial hasn't aged well. Sure, it's been over 40 years, but Tim Cook has kissed Big Brother wannabe Trump's ass.

Lieberman revealed in his 2021 book The Centrist Solution

Just stop there. Joe thereasonwehavenopublicoption Lieberman wrote a book called The Centrist Solution? Solution to what? Being healthy? Sorry, that name triggered me just a bit.

Serious question that's been bugging me: Since Adams and Cuomo have LOST the Democratic primary and are running as independents, why do I usually see (D) behind their names? Are they going to be on the ballot like that or (I)? Shouldn't media outlets be using the I instead of the D?
