New York State Senate Democrats are furious today over an unprecedented agreement reached by Republicans and conservative-leaning Democrats who disbanded from their party to form their own caucus.

The move forms a "bipartisan governing coalition" between Republicans and the Independent Democratic Conference, just a month after Democrats won a numerical majority in the chamber.

Under the agreement, Republicans and the IDC will shift control every two weeks between GOP Leader Dean Skelos and IDC Leader Jeffrey Klein. On Tuesday, Sen. Malcolm Smith, a Democrat from Queens, became the fifth Democrat to defect and join the IDC.

“Did you read where Bloomberg recently reached out to Hillary! and encouraged her to run for mayor of NYC?”

Whites want control of NYC; after the disastrous Dinkins administration (in which a lot of liberal money fled the city to avoid being “wilded”), the wealthy libs said “Never again”. Even a raging lib like Bloomberg is determined to make the melting pot conform (going overboard, IMHO).

I think I heard that the female deviant (I don’t recall her name) had assumed the mayorlty was hers for the taking (better “victim” credentials); what a freak show.
