I probably would've voted for Nixon if I was still in NY, but her campaign made a number of mistakes and I am so, so, so tired of the angry white progressive journos whining and gnashing their teeth on Twitter every time their guy/girl loses and making it an all or nothing proposition.

 

Yes, Cuomo sucks.

Yes, I would've voted for Nixon.

Yes, she made major mistakes.

And yes, the will of the actual public has to be acknowledged and not condescended to or blamed. You don't get to blame Democratic voters for actually coming out and voting Democratic.

Meanwhile, in Manafort news:

She's hated by the extreme left.  She's going to win overwhelmingly in California BUT

 

This reeks of Anita Hill and I am old enough to be glued to the TV with my mom and hating her treatment by the white male dais. Why I can't ever vote for Biden(my vote in 2008/2012 was 1000% for Obama)
