The only thorn in Hitlery's side in NY politics was the Cuomo dynasty. That is no longer a problem. She is now the de facto Queen of New York. I pity the poor FReepers that live there. At least with Cuomo vs Clintoon there was a possibility of exploting that rift and slipping in a few wins.

Hillary!'s plan was to get ANDREW installed as Governor and beholden to her. He was going to be the third gear (after Mark Green in NYC) in her NY Machine. The Cuomos were not exactly well-loved by the rest of the Demoncrats in New York, you know. The only way ANDREW was going to make the big time is with the Clinton's help. Then they would own him. Or so the theory goes.

Of course, it doesn't always work out that way. Hillary! was supposed to own Chuck Schumer for life, because she put him over the top against Alfonse Damato (sp?). But witness the sublimely beautiful knife-in-the-back Schumer delivered to his one-time benefactress with his "early" endorsement of Carl McCall. That one was sheer poetry in motion. Way to go Chuckie!

And now Hillary! is 0-2 in New York since her own election. Looks like the black pantsuit (Ol' Crusty) doesn't have any coat-tails. People in New York will certainly take notice.

Hillary!ism is dead.

I pity the poor FReepers that live there.

Hey, wait a minute! I live here! ;)

It's not that bad really. Hillary is so focussed on her megalomanical plans she really doesn't have much attention to spare for purposes of screwing up the state. Our other senator is just a follower, without an original idea in his head.

The governor is a Republican (I know, I know, a "rino" to most of you out in the red zone, but if you had lived under Mario for 12 years, you'd count your blessings believe me) and all our local politics is Republican and fairly conservative at that (we're talking Upstate NY here).

No pity required. Pity the Freepers of California. They've got problems.
