Let us not forget that it was Nita Lowey who rolled over for Hillary Clinton when she carpetbagged her way into New York to run for the U.S. Senate.

Nita Lowey was a Congresswoman from New York who decided to run for the U.S. Senate to fill the seat of the retiring Daniel Patrick Moynihan. She was well-known and well-liked as a Congresswoman. Enter Harold Ickes, a slimeball henchman for President Bill Clinton. Somehow, in an infamous “sitdown” with Ms. Lowey, Hillary and Ickes got Ms. Lowey to step aside for Hillary. The stupid voters of New York then followed through and voted Hillary to the U.S. Senate.

Is history about to repeat itself? Remember the words of Web Hubbell, who took the dive for the Clintons and ended up imprisoned. When faced with having to protect the Clintons a second time, Hubbell said to his wife (in a taped prison phone conversation), “I guess I will have to roll over again”.

Yup, I remember that. Nita was CLEARLY a very unhappy camper when she came out and through clenched teeth announced that she'd "decided" not to run.

Correct..and here’s an added tidbit. When the Clintons moved to Chappaqua in 2000, they were originally in Sue Kelley’s district. Chappaqua was at the southern end of the district..had been there for decades...all the towns, Chappaqua, Mt. Kisco, Bedford, Bedford Hills,etc, were one fairly organic area. Kelley had voted for most of the Articles of Impeachment. As a personal favor tot he Clintons, after the 2000 redistricting, it was moved into Lowey’s district.
