Where was Clinton and her surrogates when Teachout was running?

To become first female governor of NY?

Oh right. Clinton was campaigning for Cuomo. Is she going to special place in hell?

Anyone know how to tweet that to Albright?

I don't do tweets, but damn, that's got real possibilities.

Can you give us a good reason why she didn't endorse the female candidate. The one that would have been the first female governor of New York?

They have more important things to do, like plugging up their ears and covering their eyes. You know, anything to avoid facing the reality that they are embracing a candidate who is a horrible excuse for a human being simply for her gender.

Sanders, male, born in Brooklyn, moved to Vermont.

Teachout, female, born in Vermont, moved to Brooklyn.

But both represents the left-wing challenge to the establishment. She did remarkably well against Cuomo, all things considered.

She is now running for Congress against an incumbent Republican... if she gets in, she would be a good Sanders ally. A strong Sanders campaign in NY would help her.

Some of her supporters may be feminists, but Hillary is a Hillaryist.

Always has been, always will be.
