Republican wins Democratic New York House seat

LOL......Con.......your attempts to shuffle on the issues....merely displays more of your hypocracy.

Its more and more obvious that you are part of the angry white guy.....blame clinton....blame Obama....accept no responsibility for the GWB disaster crowd.

NY 9 voted Republican for the first time in almost 90 years, that says it all
 
North Korea policy? Really? Wow, PHD?

Hey look everyone, another deflection. One day this guy may actually respond to questions instead of dodging.

Only if by "says it all" you mean "illogical hypothesis not supported by full data analysis". Is that what you mean? Really? Experienced and wise?
 
I must have missed where Stewart posted officials from the Bush Administration blaming Clinton because all I saw were Hannity, Barnes, Buchannan, McCain, and others but no Administration officials blaming Clinton so to claim he nailed it is total and complete BS. I could put together quite a video on leftwing nuts and their attacks on Bush and acceptance of the Obama rhetoric who by the way has talked constantly about inheriting a mess. Incredible! You have to do better than that, including explaining how NY 9 elected the first Republican in almost 90 years to the House. Liberalism sure creates cult followers.
Ummm, Stewart's a comedian going for a laugh. If you actually want folks from Bush's administration blaming Clinton, look no further than...

Yeah, I'm sure the last Democrat to hold that seat going down in flames of humiliation has nothing to do with it. :roll:
 
this also reminds me of how congressman Chris Lee (R-NY) who resigned for doing just about the same thing, and was succeeded by democrat Kathy Hochul, or did you guys seem to forget?

Hey, Look, PHD, nothing you have posted has anything to do with the thread topic but just more diversion to the past. Bush compared his policy on North Korea to Clinton's and that is a legitimate issue so what is your point? Don't recall Bush blaming Clinton for the recession he inherited or for driving the economy into a ditch. What I can point out is that NY 9 voted Republican for the first time in almost 90 years and that is huge.
 
Intellectual honesty? Bush takes over the economy in January 2001 and we go into a recession in March. What economic policy did Bush have in place to put the economy into recession in less than 2 months? Then there was 9/11 which I believe the 9/11 Commission absolved Bush of responsibility and no one here can provide evidence that Bush could have done anything to prevent it. This was a total and complete dishonest presentation void of Bush Administration officials blaming Clinton but the Obama cult here jumps on anything to try and justify their support for the incompetent in the WH. NY 9 got it, when will you, Pb, and others?
Last time you tried making this point, you claimed Demcorats controlled the Senate when the 2001 recession began. Have you learned yet that you were wrong?

It's fairly pointless, you'll just get a deflection.

NY 9 hasn't elected a Republican in almost 90 years, and as I posted the constituents wants Weiner to stay on so to claim this was because of the Weiner scandal is just plain bs.

reminds me of the GODFATHER when The Don explains about paying back the favor he grants some day in the future.......

Someday, and that day may never come, I'll call upon you to do a service for me. ...

I suspect this day for Conservative will never quite come either.

Aw, BDS sheik found me. NY 9 elected a Republican for the first time in almost 90 and that was an anti Obama vote.

No, you made an attack on liberals citing that they blame Bush when Bush is 2 years removed. You have thus been shown Bush officials doing the same much further out than 2 1/2 years. Thus your critique of liberals must apply to conservatives as well.

But whatever Captain Deflection.

But you have NO PROOF OF THAT. You have assumption and supposition, but that's it. Furthermore, in the SAME STATE two long term held Republican seats switched as well. That points MORE TO REBUKE OF INCUMBENTS, not this fantasy you have of this one data point indicating some massive shift against Obama.
 
So why would they vote for a Republican if they believed Obama was supporting Israel? This is a rejection of Obama, clear and simple.
And the other 6 elections in New York that were all won by Democrats ... ? According to your logic, Democrats winning all 6 show support for Obama.

So you would say the same thing about NY-23 and NY-26 right? OR do you use a different form of logic on those two races? Or are you unaware of those?

What exactly did Bush blame Clinton for on North Korea? The article said the Bush policiy was different and Bush agreed. What does this have to do with Obama blaming Bush for the economic problems he is creating?

So Republicans gain 65 seats in Nov. 2010 and another Democrat seat in a District controlled for almost 90 years and the best you can do is two Republican Districts in NY? Great spin, surprised that would be coming from a PHD.
 
Weiner wasn't on the ballot, someone who supported Obama was
So ****ing what? Apparently the voters didn't believe the Democratic candidate supported Israel enough, si they voted for the Republican. This isn't rocket science, Con.

Congratulations, 2 out of 68 Districts. You must be so proud?

If Obama supported Israel more do you think the Republican would have won? LOL, you just cannot admit that you are wrong on any issue.

Do you remember this at all? It was huge at the time. They blamed Clinton policy for bringing about the nuclear situation in North Korea that they had to then deal with.

I mean, you're experienced and wiser yes? Can you honestly not remember what happened during the Bush administration. Furthermore, other quotes were provided to you from Bush and his admin blaming Clinton for problems he had to deal with during his presidency. The same exact thing you criticize liberals for doing and then launching into an attack claiming they don't understand civics or leadership and what have you. Jesus tap dancing christ on a pogo stick.

Maybe, maybe not. This is part of your ASSUMPTION, which you have no data to back up.
