Could you even try some semblance of non-partisanship or rational discourse in one of your posts?

I think he is on target in that post. I think one party cities or states tend to breed corruption and cronyism. Both parties are guilty. I give credit to the many New York City Democrats who were willing to overlook partisan affiliation to vote for the candidate who they thought would make the best mayor.

I'm pretty liberal and cannot get myself to vote for Ferrer. There is so much in-fighting in the Democratic party, and to a lesser extent - corruption. Additionally, there is a sense of "its my turn" with Ferrer and past candidates, so the best candidate doesn't necessarily get the nomination.
There are rumors that many of the big Democratic players publically backing Ferrer are privately rooting against him. Apparently there is someone (can't think of the name) that everyone in the party thinks can take the election in 2009.
