		<description>I back to brag.  Like I said New Yorkers do not like to be told what to do--whether they are conservative, liberal, or moderate.  Go Owen another house seat for Pres. Obama.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Also, NJ and VA was governor races I know Faux News makes a big deal but they really don&#039;t count that much to me WHY as a life long NYorker we tend to have the republican on the lower level and Democrats in the House, Senate, and Presidency.  Remember we had Guiliani and Bloomberg that is all they are good for Local Issues.</description>

		<description>Hoffman HQ has reiterated their urgent plea from last night. According to new Hoffman spokeswoman Ayn Paul, &lt;i&gt;&quot;Do not activate Plan Comet. Our chariot is not yet here. Repeat: do not activate Plan Comet. If you know of any teams that are planning self-GrandStand, contact HQ immediately. Repeat: do not activate Plan Comet.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I&#039;m not entirely clear on what that means.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;However, it bears repeating that one of the ways Hoffman went wrong was ignoring the fact that MassiveImmigration is one of the most vulnerable issues that Beltway hacks - Dem or GOP - have. He was on the wrong side.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If he had taken on the Beltway over that issue, he probably wouldn&#039;t have gotten a dime from the ClubForGrowthAtAnyCost, but he would have gotten a lot of grassroots support and much more crossover voting.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If he had loudly repeated &lt;a href=&quot;http://24ahead.com/hundreds-thousands-more-foreign-citizens-got-work-permits-an&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;this shocking statistic&lt;/a&gt; over and over, he could have become very popular. As it is now, he&#039;s just a footnote in Randroid history.</description>

		<description>Awesome revisionist history. Yeah, Clinton, not the GOP congress and Blue Dogs, did all that. By himself. While being investigated by the most hostile congress in memory every day of his presidency.&lt;br&gt;And, news flash. Secretaries of State don&#039;t unilaterally break contracts. That&#039;s not their job.</description>

		<description>Congratulations Bill Owens!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;The &quot;little guy&quot; has finally awoken from his deep sleep to realize that feeding the children who are already here is just as important as saving the unborn. He now understands that working himself to death for low wages that don&#039;t even buy enough groceries to take care of his family doesn&#039;t cut it. He knows that the &quot;big guy&quot; only cares about buying the biggest house on the block and that he can lay us off on a whim because his bottom line isn&#039;t big enough to buy his third sports car. The poor now realize that the pursuit of happiness doesn&#039;t happen for them unless the Democrats are at the reigns. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Congratulations Northern New York. You have finally grown up.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To the church who stood all of the children by the road with Hoffman signs: Jesus loves the little children, even the ones who are already here. Jesus said, &quot;love thy neighbor&quot;. That includes living children. Yes, I am a Christian.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To Jeff Graham: Shame on you for not caring. Take a look around. Layoffs and low paying service jobs. What do you think most of us are thinking? The minority doesn&#039;t win, the majority wins. We are the majority. I&#039;m glad I live in a democracy. Hint for the future, when times are tough economically, back the Democrat.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;To my fellow Democrats: Thanks for getting out to vote. We did it! Republicans, thank you if you stayed home. In reality, Ms. Scozzafava might have made a good candidate. Too bad Hoffman showed up.</description>
