#2, what is this "a trio of left-wing candidates" bullshit? Tell me what is "left wing" about any of them?

As far as I can tell, their positions fall right in the middle of American (and NY) politics, which is why they won.

Let's stop this empty name-calling.

The headline should be, "AIPAC is strained because Americans are voting for people who will represent the interests of Americans, not the interests of AIPAC."

Or better yet, "AIPAC efforts to villify primary candidates backfires"
