Brad Lander: The line in the Democratic Party right now is not between progressives and moderates

They were my top 2, I moved Lander up a notch due to the cross endorsement. Also all the vapid weak sauce GOP style attack ads from Coumo aligned PACs were super off putting.

Scaredy cats and lions. It's all about their jobs. Stand up for something for pete sakes. Take a chance. Stop being nice. I'm not being nice anymore. I call out dumbasses when I see it.

I will happily vote for Mamdani!

Good for Landers for supporting the Democratic candidates with a full voice.
