Obviously you know more than every person in NY23. You know more than every news source in NY23 that says this is the 1st time since the 1800s that a democrat has won in parts of NY23.


You know better than even the voters in NY23. So why re you wasting your time with me? I'm not the one you should be beating your chest toward. You should be spreading your opinions to the people who matter. The people in NY23. See how the editors respond to you. I guaranty you that they will respond to you PRECISELY as I am responding to you.

Go on Reality. You'll be a hero of every republican in NY. In your own mind.

But the reality stands: no democrat has won in parts of NY23 since 1851.

Until 2009, that is.

None of your creative spinning will change that.

None of that will change the fact that voters rejected far right wing conservatism and the extremism that represents the GOP today.
That won't change the fact that democrats swept 09 congressional elections and picked up 2 seats.

AGAIN, the local news in NY23 says:

"Democrat Bill Owens confounded the experts and defied more than a century of history as he won the three-way race for Congress from Oswego County and the North Country. Some parts of the 11-county Congressional district have not been represented by a Democrat since the end of the Civil War."

Have a problem with that? Don't whine to me, tell it to the people who live there.
