While its doubtful Democratic primary voters will oust a doyenne of politics like Rep. Carolyn Maloney, its interesting to see one of NYC's daily papers backing 34 year old upstart Reshma Saujani for the Upper East Side seat in Congress.
Inner city seats actually create more stasis than anywhere, because in a one-party environment, little changes and a Maloney or her neighbor, Rep. Charles Rangel, can go on forever.
Ms. Saujani is assertive, bright and has show an ability to raise the kind of money needed to speak truth to power. Her opponent accuses her of "Karl Rove tactics" in an effort to scare the base.
The Daily News editorial speaks for itself, but like I said....Ms. Maloney is a fixture and of course the NY Times still supports her.
DN For Saujani To Bring ‘New Blood’ To NY Delegation

The Democrat party doesn't want new blood in any aspect of their dealings. Even this Barack baby is nothing more than tax and spend, which is nothing new. Maloney votes by programs, and seems to be still alive as most of her face is still moving. Although with Naanci that is questionable. As a support of all the foolishness we've had in the past year, I say keep her in there. This new woman can probably think. Can't have that.
Saujani is a libtard, just like Maloney. Nothing to see here. Move along.

The Doheny cap looks good on Danica. Obviously it appears hes ok with it so we can take it that he endorces Cuomo..
I haven't heard that, Tong. How could she be worse than Maloney?
From her web site: "I am a dedicated Democrat, a community activist, a Yale University legal scholar, and an attorney in New York City."

She's not a "libtard" and I think calling anyone TARD is demeaning.
Saujani is a reasonable centrist.
Maloney needs a good taxidermist.
Saujani is hardly a centrist, and you are a TARD. But I don't mean that in a demeaning way, just a you are ruining the greatest country on earth sort of way.
Tong
Left is the new center.
