Sorry, but I don’t know the reference.

In the 1960s Robert Kennedy was elected to a senate seat in NY. He orignally came from Massachusetts but ran in NY because Teddy wanted the Massachusetts seat

Then RFK was killed in 1968 which began a list of one term senators from this seat in NY that mostly went to outsiders (Like Buckley in the 1970s)

Now I think the seat is the one that Hillary is holding. Its a tranditional seat that never seems to re elect anyone to it past one or two terms

“When it comes to the area of race and racism, we have to bend over backwards,” said Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

You bend backwards all you want, Chuckie; the problem is you’ve got us bending over frontwards, when it comes to these court vacancies.

carry on.

AP: please devel into the impending doom of the TNR/Scott Beauchamp story…see RCP and Drudge.

oh, and congrats to Judge Southwick.

Victory.

Victory!

Don’t give up… don’t ever give up. Hey, Judge Southwick was confirmed even with all the crap. This thing ain’t over.

I’ve given up hope for my country.

Please. We have kids we owe. Maybe it will get much worse before it gets better, but we can’t quit.

not to quibble but isnt the Hillary seat the “RFK” seat ?

The one no one seems to hold for more than one term ?

This nation is lost. That such nauseating people and concepts can dictate from Congress – makes my heart sink. I’ve given up hope for my country.

Short of a large scale terrorist attack, it’s a democrat seat.

His only sin is that he is a white male from Mississippi. According to Schumer and others this enough for the “appearance of racism”. It’s hard out here being Southern…

Schmukie’s my senator. Hil too. So remember, it could always be worse. We are on a Michigan trajectory. The middle class is leaving in droves– for the South! Chuckie’s spawn will have no one left here to govern in the future.

Damn, DREAM act fails, Southwick in, and Drudge gets a memo leak on Beauchamp. Awesome.

Great news but since the MSM won’t mention any of it, the significance will be lost on the general public, and the celebration will be quiet.

Yeah, unbelievable! Only thing that could top this is the humping robot vid and a Live Hot Air episode!

Chuckie Schumer is a menace and needs to be defeated. He is up in 2010, is he not?

Blanche Lincoln Arkansas
Barbara Boxer California
Harry Reid Nevada
Ken Salazar Colorado
Chuck Schumer New York

* Barack “Junk Basket” O’Rookie

Possibly retiring:

Christopher Dodd Connecticut

Byron DorganNorth Dakota

Drudge has BLOWN THE LID OFF of Beauchamp and THE NEW REPUBLIC

SHOCK DOCS: THE NEW REPUBLIC ‘SHOCK TROOPS’ STORY COLLAPSES

Now lets all pray that at least one liberal seat on the Supreme Court opens up before Bush leaves office. We are too often lulled into thinking conservatives are in control at SCOUS but the fact is, five liberals are still very much in control, they are: STEVENS, KENNEDY, SOUTER, GINSBURG, and BREYER. We need at least one of those seats !!

Anyone taking roll call of daily Kos or DU to see how many have gone ballistic today over more democratic failures ?

William Amos on October 24, 2007 at 1:02 PM

Between the DREAM act failing, Southwick being confirmed and Stark apologising- just follow the sound of heads exploding.
