Democrat Kathy Hochul Wins Upset In NY-26, Medicare Vote Key To Victory


A district that's been held by only three other democrats in the past 100 years. Of course, both sides are spinning it their own way:

National Democrats are giddy over the results, crowing that they'll use the same formula in swing districts across the country in 2012.

Republicans sought to spin the race beforehand as an exceptional situation due to the appearance of Tea Party independent Jack Davis, who was ironically the Democratic candidate in 2006.

If your a member of the elites you dont need elections because you already own them, this isnt surprising, good thread OP.

I am sure they will, i guess the democrats wont mention that obama and his elite freinds started another illegal war in the med east.

The democrats will just buy the elections just like what they did in 2008.
