One of the attempts to try to explain Kathy Hochul’s upset win appeared on theatlantic.com and was written by Chris Good, who is identified as an associate editor at The Atlantic, where he writes for the Politics channel and who previously reported and blogged for The Hill newspaper.

Michael Goodwin in Sunday’s NY Post thinks he has caught Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver in a hypocritical inconsistency.

For those who are afraid that Donald Trump might actually become the Republican nominee for President next year, I say don’t worry.

Remember 4 years ago and see if these qualities that describe the then GOP front runner in all the polls don’t also apply to Trump. And we all remember what happened to that frontrunner.

Saturday’s NY Post reported that poor Hiram Monserrate can no longer afford to pay his high-priced mouthpiece Joe Tacopina.
