This wouldn't have happened if Rangel hadn't been wearing a hoodie.

Is it a case of “do it to others before they do it to you”? Got some of the voter fraud cleaned up in the upper northwest part of IN cause the candidate exposed each others methods of voter fraud.....Hmmm?

How the fate of a congressman who was once one of the most powerful officials in Washington came to be decided under banana republic circumstances is a question that has baffled even seasoned New York pols.

Yeah, right. When you consider things such as affidavit ballots, same day registration, the dead voting, people being bused in from outside the district to vote, all big Dem devices, it's not hard to figure out at all. They just don't want to talk about it because it's being used by both sides.

A Rangle win would nice. It gives us another bag of crook Democrat crap to point to and slaps the Hispanics in the face. Maybe, they'll see a Zimmerman to Espaillat connection, understand they don't mean anything to the Democrats and stay home.

US-style democracy/constitutional republic depends on honor and integrity to run correctly.

Lacking those elements - anything is possible.

As we now see in every election.

I know that face!

I thought he was retired and enjoying life on the beaches of some banana republic somewhere?

Elections are now useless in the USA.

“Veteran democratic congressman” is liberalspeak for “lifetime parasite.”

“42-year career in the House”

Is EXACTLY 34 years too many IMO.

These leeches should be restricted to no more than 4 terms for the House, and 2 terms for the Senate.

Once they hit their term limit, they should be banned from lobbying, as well as holding any other appointed or elected public office.

Missing precincts??? How many precincts are in Harlem anyway? And how do you lose some of them?

It's a House race, not statewide! Sheesh!

A nice bilateral, intra-party Rat-a-tat fight would be an entertaining spectacle indeed. Dem on Dem accusations of racism and cheating would be such a magnificient thing of beauty. Wish for it mightily.

A perfect picture for a perfect corrupt ‘Rat.

Rangel makes Adam Clayton Powell look like a lesson in civic virtue and honesty.

As egregious a corrupt ‘Rat as Rep. Charlie Rangel is, the guy he replaced, Rep. Adam Clayton Powell, was just as corrupt and slimy. Powell had the good presence to die, but Rangel is the gift that keeps being regifted.

Powell here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adam_Clayton_Powell,_Jr
