In reply to the discussion: Marty Dolan for Congress (NY-14) ... "Rollin' with Dolan!" [View all]H2O Man

The 19th could and should have been run the last time, as well as this year. I do not think the candidate is being well served by his campaign staff. I do understand the desire to score a job in DC if your candidate wins. That's a good thing. It has the most positive potential for all if there are good relationships between the staff and the grass roots. I'll speculate it is why AOC and her staff are as popular as they are.

It's funny how all those "reasonable centrists" seem to be going after immigrants.

Yes, "banker". It's in the title of the Bloomberg write-up that I quoted in #38
