“Government’s view of the economy could be summed up in a few short phrases: If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it”-Ronald Reagan
Brooklyn, NY – I have been in politics for over 50 years and this mailer by Congressional candidate Perry Gershon is the most despicable mailer I have ever seen. If Perry Gershon, who has campaigned on the fact that in his mind there are similarities between President Donald Trump and Adolf Hitler — the person responsible for the carnage of the Holocaust — is elected to Congress it will be a sad commentary on what America has become.
How a person can send such a vile, despicable, hateful mailer is beyond reason and speaks volumes about the person responsible for sending it.
There is less than a week before the elections. Please make the time to watch all the debates (they are linked to the candidate’s pages under The Debate) and trust your own judgement instead of reading the highlights that a reporter interpreted for you. Be an informed voter.
With today’s endorsements of Keith Wofford and Jonathan Trichter the NY Post editorial board has endorsed all four of the Conservative/Republican candidates running for statewide office! ALL FOUR! Chele Farley! Marc Molinaro! Keith Wofford! Jonathan Trichter!

Keith Wofford and Leticia James debate tonight on Spectrum News at 7:00 pm with Capital Tonight’s Liz Benjamin and Inside City Hall’s Errol Louis as the moderators.
Mexico offers caravan migrants benefits to stay; thousands refuse. Does anyone still believe the caravan is all about “asylum-seekers,” fleeing drug-fueled communities. As the Heritage Foundation points out: The Left Goes Full Open Borders.
This week, in the only debate Andrew Cuomo would agree to (he can’t be bothered with upstate issues), conservative Marc Molinaro stood his ground against the Cuomo machine’s bullying tactics.
The case against Cuomo is strong, and Molinaro made some great points – which of his debate statements is your favorite? That’s the first question in our new Weekly Poll.
Meanwhile Barack Obama is “making stuff up” about the Trump economic boom, which you may recall our 44th president said was impossible. Obama said that we’d need a “magic wand” to jumpstart the U.S. economy, but his economic incompetence is being exposed by President Trump.
The left has no substantive ideas beyond recycling socialism and biggergovernment – so of course they’re trying to change the subject by blaming President Trump for this week’s bomb scares, even as liberal politicians and the media have ignored actual violence against conservatives.
And then there’s the “caravan” – but let’s call it what it really is, an invasion. Talk about election meddling – who is funding this spectacle? Fortunately we have a President who actually believes that America and our borders are worth defending.
How concerned are you about this new threat to America’s sovereignty and security? That’s the third and final question in our new Weekly Poll.
Tina Moore and Bruce Golding write that Gov. Cuomo forgets FALN attacks while discussing NYC terrorism; he didn’t forget, it just did not serve his narrative. Does anyone know why Governor Cuomo had to be part of the press conference yesterday? Thankfully no one was hurt and no bombs exploded , but the Governor felt the need to let the world know he was in control, and to say that he had also received a “device” which happened to be a thumb drive. Yet he never knew that his personal executive assistant was making campaign phone calls from his public office. If you believe that, we have a bridge to sell you.
It has been almost three years since we had the privilege of having J. J. Hanson speak at our Conservative Party Political Action Conference, if you were there, I am certain that you remember his courage and faith. Listen to the Daily Signal podcastwith his wife, Kristen, on why he was opposed to physicians assisted suicide. Thank you, Kristen. Rest in Peace, J. J.
Did you watch the debate last evening? If not, you can watch it here. The New York Post editorial sums it up with this: In debate, Andrew Cuomo shifts from chicken to bully. Bully is mild considering his constant interruptions and telling the moderator that he was speaking. If you watch a moderate amount of TV in the evening, you cannot escape from the commercials berating bullying in school, yet, we have a governor who is the biggest bully – and proud of being a bully – in New York State. What kind of message is this sending the children we are trying to teach that bullying is unwarranted, unjustified and undeserved? Make the message clear on November 6: No Bullies in the bully pulpit! Vote for Marc Molinaro on the Conservative Line.
Here is how Ken Lovett describes the debate: Cuomo unleashes his inner Mike Tyson in feisty debate with GOP challenger Molinaro. He ends his column with this “Cuomo is expected to remain New York’s leading heavyweight.” Again, is this the image we want as Governor when we have a concerted effort to eliminate bullying? Even Ken Lovett’s column portrays Governor Cuomo as a bully.
The one, and so far, only debate between Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Marc Molinaro, will be on television tonight. Click here to find out where you can watch it. As the NY Post editorial writes today. “It’s about time Cuomo agreed to a debate.”
Bob McManus also writes today that ‘Chicken’ Cuomo will keep on dodging and has great questions that should be asked of Governor Cuomo, but we all know that Governor Cuomo will not answer them, even if he were asked. Maybe that is why the debate is taped.
The Empire Center takes a hard look at the employment numbers for the last 10 years and there is only one conclusion: the last eight years have seen a sharp and growing economic divide between upstate and downstate. Read the report here.
Jonathan Trichter critiques Comptroller DiNapoli on lack of oversight in protecting taxpayer’s funds.
Cory Booker: did you fail American History? Lofty ideal; unfeasible economically. It really is pitifully inferior to propose such an impracticable, unworkable, impossible idea to those who think it would be possible.
Gillibrand sheds chicken suit, agrees to ABC-TV debate. The Gillibrand-Farley debate will air on WABC-TV and be held on Thursday, at 1:30 pm and be made available for their local political show, Up Close with Bill Ritter, and to statewide affiliates. We will post the time on Thursday or before, if available.
Cuomo finally agrees to in-person TV debate with GOP challenger. Gov. Andrew “chicken” Cuomo finally agreed to a TV debate that would be taped on Tuesday 1:30 p.m. in the studios of WCBS/Channel 2 and air Tuesday night at 7 p.m. on the local affiliate and on radio. Personally, I am looking forward to how Governor Cuomo explains his “pay-to-play” schemes like this one; of course, it has to asked and the likelihood of having it asked by the moderator is slim to none.
If the NY Post hosted the debate, you could rest assured hard questions would be pursued. Fortunately, the NY Post exposes all that they can through their newspaper — and hopefully, NYC voters are reading it as unlike other NYC newspapers, the NY Post doesn’t hide behind a paywall (yet!)
If this caravan can overcome the combined efforts of Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and the U.S., why can’t they overtake Honduras and make it more like America? It isn’t about escaping conflict, generalized violence and targeted persecution – it is about free handouts from our government. Trump says he’s reducing Central American aid over migrants; use the aid money to BUILD THE WALL!
President Trump is taking the fight to his enemies with a historic media blitz – and he’s apparently having a lot of fun doing it.
You could see that in his one-on-one with Lesley Stahl of “60 Minutes” this past Sunday, as he laid out his accomplishments: “When you look at taxes, you look at regulations, you look at– making deals with other countries. Nobody’s been able to do anything like this. Actually, most people didn’t even try because they knew they didn’t have the ability to do it.”
President Trump touched on several issues, including the media, the Russia investigation, NATO, and illegal immigration. I’ve picked out some of my favorite quotes – which one do you like the most? That’s the first question in our new Weekly Poll.
Meanwhile the Democrats continue to encourage and actually resort to violence (plus some unhinged conspiracy theories) in response to President Trump’s success. There’s a War on Women going on – not even 9/11 widows are safe from the fury of the left – and Nancy Pelosi thinks that’s just fine.
On the campaign trail, the Democrats’ Senate candidates have had quite a week.
In Virginia, Sen. Tim Kaine encouraged the liberals’ mob mentality…
In North Dakota, Sen. Heidi Heitkamp’s campaign outed sexual assault victims…
In New Jersey, the ethically-challenged Sen. Robert Menendez is turning to Hillary Clinton for help…
In Arizona, leftist Krysten Sinema has a history of bashing her own state…
In Tennessee, Phil Bredesen’s campaign was caught telling the truth about the candidate’s Kavanaugh stand in an undercover sting…
And in Texas, media darling Beto O’Rourke is supporting impeachment…
No wonder Rush Limbaugh is predicting GOP gains in the Senate and even success in House races. President Trump has certainly energized individuals to get involved.
I know most friends of the Conservative Party follow politics across the country. Which Democrat Senate candidate outside of New York do you like the LEAST in this year’s campaigns? That’s the second question in our new Weekly Poll.
Here in New York, as we’ve mentioned this week, Andrew Cuomo is rightfully being labeled a “coward” for refusing to debate Marc Molinaro.
Why do you think that is – does Andrew not want to face questions about all the “coincidental” corruption in the Albany Swamp? Does he want to avoid tricky issues like marijuana legalization? Or does the governor think he’s above the law and those above answering questions?
That’s the third and final question in our new Weekly Poll – let me know what you think, and have a great weekend!
‘Coward’ Cuomo still refusing to debate his GOP challenger. Even disgraced Elliot Spitzer criticized Andrew for not agreeing to a debate as of today’s date.
The NY Post editorial ends with this, “Maybe Cuomo is just chicken — or maybe he figures that an open debate might hurt him so badly that he could actually lose. (emphasis added.)”
Apparently, the fact that Andrew Cuomo doesn’t like to be confronted by things that may upset him, is a trait that his father, Mario, also had. Kathleen Gallagher writes about the Gosnell movie and what happened way back when Mario was asked to visit an abortion mill by a fellow democrat.
