“Sorry sister. I do not want congress capitulating to those who have a grudge against Joe. Don't deny it's a grudge, why call it Joe's bill? why not just say the Senate bill? We have a ways to go and progressives are meeting with the president tomorrow.”

“"I do not want congress capitulating to those who have a grudge against Joe. "

The other alternative is to capitulate to Joe (and his grudge) and his un-named co-conspirators. The author is correct. This bill is the pits.”

First Hillary, Now Sarah

Commented Nov 14, 2009 at 14:51:29 in Politics

“were you paying attention last year? Hockey mom? - I'm a "woman" just like you.

She used her looks (winking, letting her hair down) , the fact that she has a disabled child, and the fact that she has had several kids to gain sympathy.”

Patrick8 replied on Nov 14, 2009 at 15:22:29

“Yes, I saw all that. Embracing femininity then, is a bad thing all of a sudden? You have a problem with "letting her hair down"? Does the fact that her hair is long bother you? Do you see how all your measures reflect purely social stigma's surrouning women? There's nothing wrong with promoting herself as a woman...for goodness' sake. That's the whole point.

No, my response is that Sarah hasn't painted herself as a victim. Unlike Hillary, she has not blamed her criticisms on the fact that she is a woman. (Which clearly, by your comment here, Hillary is right on) Palin just doesn't acknowledge it in that sense. She perserveres, as a woman, to break down the ridiculous expectations that you outlined in your response here.”

The Win That Should Have Been: Holding the DNC Responsible for Tuesday's Loss

Commented Nov 06, 2009 at 10:27:03 in New York

“NO ONE cared about Thompson until the results of the election. Not. A . Single person pushed for Thompson until the race was over and the surprising 5% loss/win. Prior to that the polls showed more like a 12% percent loss. So let's not cry foul now when NO ONE saw this coming.”

RobotRockRod replied on Nov 06, 2009 at 14:56:25

“I did

Me, and those who payed attention to what was going on in the City, and voted for Thompson.

Just file this election under section "Spineless Democrat Actions/In-actions". And Obama was part of it too. The Democrats suffer from severe Gutlessness, affraid to support Thompson vs the "beloved" Billionair. They could've gotten a great upset there.

Another 4 years of Quinn and Co. kissing butt.”

Why Did Obama Not Help Dems Win the NY Mayor's Office? It Was Probably Bloomberg's Money, Stupid

Commented Nov 05, 2009 at 11:25:00 in Politics

“Thompson sucked man, he sucked, sucked. Practically all the papers in NYC endorsed bloomberg - the NYT, the NY daily news, the NY post - 60 newspaper endorsements. I live here and people were holding their nose to vote for thompson in order to get rid of bloomberg. Thompson sucked. So this sudden defense of Thompson is beyond ridiculous.

And apparently you don't know NY. We had Rudy and bloomberg (twice before) - Democrats aren't guaranteed anything here.

Did I say Thompson sucked?”

americanboi replied on Nov 05, 2009 at 11:54:43

“Honestly here, how "sucky" is a candidate who was outspent by at least 91 million dollars, did not have the support of the local black clergy, business endorsements etc., lukewarm support from the president, and STILL managed to come within 4 points of winning which is rougly the same margin in the hotly contested NJ race?

Sucky?

Really?”
