1. The messed up bagel order didn't help.

[Cha]

3. She thought she could get away with

ANYTHING. lol

[greyl]

4. Lox on cinnamon raisin, ick. nt

[betsuni]

9. Well, she couldn't order an establishment bagel, could she?

[Scurrilous]

10. Poppy seed bagel...

...opium of the people!

[betsuni]

11. LOL

[PJMcK]

16. Food often screws up candidates (n/t)

[Cha]

2. I didn't even know she did that.. that is

fucking stupid hype.

5. lol cinnamon and FISH !

[raging moderate]

6. Well, really, she did not have the needed experience.

There is a reason we usually choose governors who have been involved in government for awhile. Ditto for Presidents.

7. Good. Calling people corrupt is corrupt in itself.

Now she can go comfort herself with her $60 million.

8. Frankly, I don't care about the bagel "controversy". . .

. . .but back in March this year, I saw an interesting story that articulated why Nixon was not the one to challenge Cuomo and win.

15. That article includes a great line:

And providing a list of the problems isn't the same as a concrete action plan of solutions.

20. A lot of truth in those words

[Power 2 the People]

12. She never had a chance

No experience and up against a NY political dynasty. I voted for his father, a great Democrat.

13. Another successful TV personality that wants to run Government at an executive level

without putting in some time at a lower level job first.
Sure I want to be Governor and President too but I'd rather have an experienced policymaker who has dedicated a life to public service being elected instead of TV stars all the time.

14. She lost the second she entered the race.

Let’s be honest here, there was never a chance she was going to win.

[NewJeffCT]

17. Not a surprise

I'm still not quite getting her comment about pot being reparations for black neighborhoods?

[rogue emissary]

18. A rapper named Killer Mike said it.

So she thought that would give her coverage to repeat that stupidity.

Didn't dawn on her we don't all smoke pot or want to be legal drug dealers.

I'd love to explain it, but it would probably takes someone like Killer Mike, who smokes daily to do so.

[NastyRiffraff]

19. And she's whining about the high voter turnout

She lost because too many people voted. It's Cuomo's fault because he had a very effective GOTV campaign.
