relative or lover. She's been great in the House, and the kids who challenged her in the past have nothing. Last time out she won a four-way primary, although not by that much. A small lead in a four-way give Justice Dems the sprinkle of hope they can get her this year. For shame if they do.

Numbers like 80% and 90% of the primary and general votes, quotes like "fighting like a tiger for 9/11 money"..., and "more progressive than the overall NY state delegation" sprinkle through it.

She has also been one of the more productive members of the House, having passed quite a bit of legislation, much of it while getting Republican Senate cosponsorship.

Justice Dems-- eat shit this time.
