Hochul beat Republican Corwin in the NY 26 District congressional race,
a Democratic win in an overwhelmingly Republican/conservative district,
according to The Associated Press.

A tea party candidate scored in the single digits. The GOP said he would
have to score in the double digits to have a real impact on the
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.
