It happened because New York Democrats flew too close to the sun. Or, no, it was because Republicans did some savvy judge shopping. Maybe just a simple matter of politicians’ lust for power?
The voters made the right choice here.
well I haven’t been following this too closely, but I did get annoyed with Maloney’s continuing public conjecture about Biden not running again, which was just dumb and unnecessary. Glad that Nadler won.
It is my personal belief that I am first.
oh yeah, where’s the animal picture then?
My initial conjecture about being first has proven to be less than 100% inaccurate, but I understand that hamsters possess a high adorability quotient.
Far be it for me to criticize anyone’s appearance, but Nadler looks like Octavio from Scarface and Maloney looks like someone photoshopped Miracle Max’s face onto Hillary Clinton, and now I can’t see them any other way.
You gotta believe in something.
oh gaWd that hurt my eyes to watch!
With that photo, you are definitely first in my book!
I seem to recall TPM having reported earlier that the debate between Nadler and Maloney was not terribly antagonistic, which makes the “vicious clash” headline seem pretty odd.
If I still voted in NYC, I’d have voted for Nadler, but my one gripe about him is that when I was doing some lobbying in the House on environmental issues it was impossible to get a meeting with his staff, let alone one in which he participated. So he seems to have his eye on national issues to the exclusion of constituent service. Nevertheless, for the issues he cares about, he’s good.
Seriously. Lol.
No reminiscing 
Dammit sexism rears its ugly head. Nadler is the worst.
Same. Like, why? Seemed disqualifying to me for a supposedly seasoned Democrat to get mired in that, and then to return to the topic when it might have faded away.
Many are saying so. It was stolen from you by Jewish space lasers.
Well golly gee, who knew that viciously attacking your opponent and the head of your party could produce such a result? This has never happened before!
Newsflash Democrats: we have somewhat less authoritarian group-think, but that doesn’t mean we like causeless un-strategic squabbling either.
The failure of redistricting was actually caused by the census not being taken as seriously by the state, the city did a fairly good job however we came out 89 people short in the state thus losing a seat.
When Maloney cited of all things a New York Post editorial calling Nadler senile you knew that the writing was on the proverbial wall for her.
Don’t tell the hamster, or we’ll all be in a world of hurt.
