Hochul beat Republican Corwin in the NY 26 District congressional race,
a Democratic win in an overwhelmingly Republican/conservative district,

A tea party candidate scored in the single digits. The GOP said he would

Republican's chances.

The Republicans spent an estimated $9 million to hold onto this seat.
Karl Rove was involved.

The biggest single issue apparently was the support of the Republican
candidate for the Republican plan to eliminate Medicare. Corwin
supported that plan until this weekend, when she flip-flopped.

Wow... I guess the Rapture is back on!

I think this might be a rupture. Every Republican that voted for
Ryan's bill will face open season next electiion cycle. These are the
idiot who want to end Medicare, a program over 80% of the population
says to keep as is.

Foot, shot, themselves.

Gosh, I hope so. I think the Dems ought to bring up the fact every day
that all but four Repubs voted for the Ryan plan to kill Medicare. It'll
be fun watching many of the Repubs twisting in the wind.

This was MediScare at it's finest.

I suppose we will deny that there is a problem until it bankrupts the
country.

No one denies there is a problem. One problem is the program is
underfunded. Another is that the health care system is run for the
benefit of drug companies, insurance companies and for profit hospitals,
instead of for the benefit of the folks who live in this country. Both
problems can be fixed.

The problem nobody wants to touch is end of life care. As soon as you
get close, it becomes a "death panel'.
Most of the money Medicare spends, they spend to extend life a month
or two.

I agree, but this was a Republican talking point in the last
presidential election if you recall. I don't understand what is wrong
with paying a doctor for having an end of life discussion.

My favorite quote from the aftermath:

“Republicans like to pretend that they are doing something noble,
something fair – in the interest of asking all Americans to sacrifice,”
said Alixandria Lapp, executive director of the pro-Democratic House
Majority PAC, which invested heavily in the race. “They’re not asking
oil and gas companies to sacrifice. They’re not asking multimillionaires
to sacrifice. Medicare’s going to be a very important part of that
overall message and a fundamental referendum for the 2012 election.”

I looked up NYs spending the other day.

With that overspend and debt, just a mater of time before NY state
declares bankruptcy.

Big debt crash is coming. Just depends how long the ruse of solvency is
maintained. Me, I am counting on the debt stupidity. That is why I am
dumping USD....

No one will notice the $100 US you once had in your wallet, along with
that 40-year-old rubber.

Funny, what would I have rubbers for? I don't fool around on my wife, I
am not a fleabagger looking for trouble. Not into underage or other
things needing a rubber.
