It is beyond shameful to see the number of Democrats who slag Mamdani, who would not appear radical in most developed democracies. And why not back a winner - someone who can beat Cuomo and the others so thoroughly clearly has some momentum that the party sadly needs these days?

The suggestion by Rs (and not very energetically rebutted by Ds) that Mamdani must be a terrorist because he is Muslim is beyond shameful, but the more it is allowed to circulate by people who should be resisting it, the more harm it will do.

One man can't make a revolution anyway. Make him mayor (the country and the world need a breath of fresh air these days) and see what he can do with the council and the state. Well worth a try.

Democrats routinely eat their own. That's one issue with a big tent party: too many factions. The upside of a party with no moral compass is that they vote as a unit. It's only about power. And God. And grievance. If you can tick those boxes, you're in. They don't care who it is.
