Hoyer and Schummer are paying attention. If we want a dynamic Political Party,then we have to welcome the new Generation of Activist whom a Civic Centered and not Wall Street Centered.

That's what I saw at Politico, anyway. I used to be in Engel's district, and know the area well. There will be lots of Jewish votes for him coming in from Westchester.

19% reporting. Small, but not "very small." It's not looking good for him.

that someone's endorsement of his opponent was an example of dictatorship.

"This is not a dictatorship. This is a democracy. We shouldn't have one person, from high, even though she's a colleague of mine, think that she can anoint whoever's elected."
