And I'm holding a permanent grudge against Gillenbrand for her part in this.

I've had more nasty experiences with on-the-job sexual harassment than you can shake a stick at. And immature, goofy photos were the least of my concerns.

Meanwhile, we've lost a true progressive voice. Thanks a lot.

I hope New York State progressives voters won't forget either. Gillibrand is a Republican in Democratic clothing.

I can't even watch news channels anymore. It's so depressing.

I just want to stay indoors and hug my doggie.

I'll always wonder about the ulterior motives of some Senate Democrats, and the cowardly buckling under of others.
