14516 [lbo-talk] the awfulness of the Dems (cont.) -- rank: 1000
Someone who knows told me this story the other day... The New York State Assembly has long been controlled by Democrats, and the Senate by Republicans. A few years ago, a pretty good "progressive" Dem Senator, Eric Schneiderman, was running the Senate campaign, and wanted to take control of the house. The Dem leadership didn't like his aggressiveness, and essentially deposed him. So now, with the Dems almost certain to win the governorship, in the person of Elliot Spitzer, taking ...

14520 [lbo-talk] issues that matter -- rank: 1000
