Not With Her: Hillary to Endorse Cuomo Instead of Nixon in New York Governor Race
Remember! Hillary cheered when Madeleine Albright said, “There is a special place in hell for women who do not help other women.”
Reports indicate that failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton will endorse New York Governor Andrew Cuomo instead of his primary opponent Cynthia Nixon.
Let me repeat myself: Hillary Clinton (the female who bashed females for not voting for her) will endorse Andrew Cuomo instead of his female primary opponent Cynthia Nixon.
Remember what Hillary said in March?
“Democrats, going back to my husband and even before, but just in recent times going back to Bill and our candidates and then President Obama, have been losing the vote, including white women. We do not do well with white men and we don’t do well with married white women,” Clinton said.
She went on to say that white women face an “ongoing pressure to vote the way that your husband, your boss, your son, whoever, believes you should.”
Clinton said that she was on the way to winning the white women vote until then-FBI Director James Comey sent a letter to leaders in Congress less than two weeks before the election stating that the FBI reopened its investigation into her use of a private email server while she was secretary of state.
“All of a sudden white women, who were going to vote for me and frankly standing up to the men in their lives and the men in their workplaces, were being told, ‘She’s going to jail. You don’t want to vote for her. It’s terrible, you can’t vote for that.’ So, it just stopped my momentum and it decreased my vote enough because I was ahead. I was winning, and I thought I had fought my way back in the ten days from that letter until the election. I fell a little bit short,” Clinton said.
“I think that it was part of a historical trend that I was bucking and then it collapsed on me,” Clinton added.
So does that only count towards her and/or the presidency? Why not the governorship of New York?
Hypocrite. The Cuomo campaign confirmed the endorsement, which will happen at the New York Democratic convention. From Democrat & Chronicle:
Clinton, the former New York senator and first lady, has long been an ally of Cuomo, who served in President Clinton’s administration as secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Clinton plans to speak on the first day of the Democratic convention on Long Island. Cuomo is set to accept the party’s nomination for the third term on Thursday.

“New York has led the way in fighting back against the divisive, hateful agenda of the ultra-conservatives in Washington and worked to create a fairer, more inclusive state for all,” Clinton said in a statement.
“Working together we will elect more Democrats at every level of government to advance our shared progressive vision of equality and opportunity, and build a brighter future for generations to come.”
Hillary and Cuomo have a long history with each other and Cuomo backed her in the 2016 Democratic primary and presidential election. Hillary also endorsed Cuomo for governor in 2015.
Nixon supported Hillary over her opponent, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), the self-proclaimed democratic socialist, even though Nixon is running as a hard-left Democrat with views similar to Sanders.
Jezebel’s Frida Garza penned a piece saturated in sarcasm chastizing Hillary’s choice, stating that she cannot even remember when the election happened, “like, six months ago or three years ago.” Ouch. While she isn’t as blunt as I am (I cannot help myself) it appears Garza cannot believe that Hillary would choose Cuomo over Nixon:
Which candidate do you think is representative of where the Democratic Party needs to go at this point in history? Cuomo or, someone who, perhaps, recognizes that marijuana decriminalization is a justice issue? Or who believes that New York state has an imperative to look out for students and give school districts better funding, challenging Cuomo’s policies when it come to the state budget? Or who hates New York City’s wack-ass subways and knows who’s responsible for the system’s disrepair? Hmm, jeez… hard to say.
Guess there’s no way to know, really!
Garza is not the only one who’s unhappy with Hillary:
Interesting, while Hillary Clinton ran on being the first female President, she’s backing Andrew Cuomo over Cynthia Nixon – who’d become the first female governor in NY. It’s almost like Clinton used her gender as a marketing ploy and doesn’t actually care about progress ???? https://t.co/Y0e2zhP51L

If Hillary’s supporting Andrew Cuomo over @CynthiaNixon does that mean we can all start calling Clinton a sexist, homophobic #Cuomobro ?

===============================================
For those of a religious bent, Hellery already occupies that place, and earned it LOOOOOOnnnnng ago.
I’m not sure even Satan would want her. Bill only kept her through political expediency and believed she would get him back in the WH to have more fun with interns.
Satan doesn’t want the competition
Well, rags, there is a special place in hell for flaming, never President Trump hypocrites who, like you, would now condemn the harpy they voted for, who lost.
Note to everyone…
I never voted for Hellery for any damned thing, contrary to what his asshole lied about.
Also note that I’ve never addressed his various attempts to troll me of late, and that he’s the one provoking a fight.
You pretend to want a “happier” LI…??? Stomp this dickless wonder.
Let’s see how serious you are…
Rags, he is not responsible for your behavior.
I think most here would be open to burying grudges and giving you a fresh start, but you have to take the first step.
And you’re going to have to ignore retaliatory strikes from fights you started, and from those who didn’t hear you are making a sincere effort to reform. Can you do that? Because this won’t work if you can’t.
I’m not. Raghead is a complete tool.
You are, at VERY best, an artful liar.
Goebbels would approve.
Ragspierre’s original post seems on point and non-inflammatory.
Thanks, Rick.
But you’ll allow as how my presence…or even absence…on any thread is the nexus of personal attacks.
Not attacks on fact, of course. Just attacks on me personally. Why? Often only because I ask good, direct questions. The thinking…IT BURNS…!!!
Rick: “Ragspierre’s original post seems on point and non-inflammatory.”
It is. But he did the same to me only a few days ago. I remarked about an NR article about NeverTrumpers discussing throwing the midterms to handicap Trump, and Rags called me a cowardly lying bastard for 6 or 7 comments in a row.
You have to look at the entire context. People aren’t bashing Rags on a whim, he has been attacking them for months or even years.
The Battle of New Orleans (1815) was fought AFTER the Treaty of Ghent was signed.
No, you lying sack of shit.
I responded to your lies about a piece you depicted as NR “treachery”.
Of course, it was the opposite, and you proceeded to play “hide the pea” in your game of trollish lying.
It’s all just how you roll.
Rags: “No, you lying sack of shit.”
See what I mean, Rick?
“I responded to your lies about a piece you depicted as NR “treachery”.
It’s my opinion that even entertaining the idea of throwing the midterms to handicap the President is treachery. You may disagree, but that doesn’t make me a liar.
Rags: “Of course, it was the opposite”
No, the author argued against throwing the midterms for the wrong reasons (not enough senators to remove Trump from office after House impeachement). That’s like arguing against assassinating Trump because you might accidentally shoot VP Pence in the process.
Rags: “you proceeded to play “hide the pea” in your game of trollish lying.”
No. You demanded a link to the article, I told you 6 times I would post it once you apologized for the unprovoked personal attack. It’s there for anyone to read for themselves Rags. Which makes you appear delusional and is why even your worst enemies are genuinely concerned about you.
Meathead.
As one of rags more vocal critics, I have to agree with him on this. At least in part. I believe rags when he says he never voted for Hillary.
What rags did do is work hard on LI during the general election to dissuade voters from supporting Trump.
What rags did not do is offer any explanation why Hillary’s election (the obvious consequence of defeating Trump) would be better for conservativism. He still offers no explanation, but continues to deride and belittle those who voted for Trump.
Effectively, what rags did was supportive of Hillary; technically, he can honestly say he did not vote for her. Very lawyerly.
Re his advice on how to achieve a ‘happier’ LI. It’s worth noting that the nexus of the ‘unhappiness’ on LI is – rags. With the possible exception of the obvious left trolls (Yellow something, etc), no one else gets the negative treatment that rags does. Rags would have us believe that he is blameless. That his use of insulting, demeaning nicknames, his foul language, his – hell, we all know his general behavior. He would have us beleive that his actions are all blameless – that the problem is all the fault of his critics. BS. LI is populated by normal, intelligent people who didn’t all decide one day to pick on rags. He earned it.
I’m delighted to be the source of “unhappiness” for the cult of T-rump here.
I am partially, and happily, the “source” of controversy here, disrupting the the GroupThink and tribal bullshit that often obtains on these threads.
But it IS good to clarify all the lies the lying liars hypocritically intone.
For instance, Piglet here blames me for “working against the election of T-rump”. The truth is that I merely expressed my opinion (very like that of several LI contributers, including Prof. Bill) about Mr. Establishment.
I ALWAYS advised people to vote their consciences. Which, of course, is anathema to the cult of T-rump.
rags rote:The truth is that I merely expressed my opinion (very like that of several LI contributers, including Prof. Bill) about Mr. Establishment.
You claim that you are merely expressing an opinion when you attack Trump and his supporters. When someone defends Trump from your attack, you claim they are a member of a cult. What’s the dividing line? When does opinion become advicacy?

You claim that you are merely expressing an opinion when you attack Trump and his supporters. It’s narcissistic to think that your opinion is of such value that you can troll, insult and belittle anyone who doesn’t argee with it.
rags rote:I ALWAYS advised people to vote their consciences. Which, of course, is anathema to the cult of T-rump.
Those were your words, but your actions make them a lie. If you really wanted people to vote their conscience, you wouldn’t, as you do, belittle and insult them when they vote in a way you don’t like.
re; “As one of rags more vocal critics, I have to agree with him on this. At least in part. I believe rags when he says he never voted for Hillary.”
AND my first question is WHY? Wouldn’t they allow him to vote, even if he was undergoing a psychiatric evaluation in the local mental hospital? Honestly, Rags seems just the type of person the Democrat party would appeal to.
So, there you have it.
Liars, careful to just stupid, join in Bare’s attack.
Who would require me to abstain from fighting back?
You’re not fighting back. The fight has been over for some time. The crowd left hours ago. You were beaten so badly over the last 3 days that your opponents backed off out of pity and mercy. The medics just dragged you off the mat and you came to and started blindly swinging at them.
The fight is over. You have no credibility to salvage, no reputation to defend. Your insults cannot affect me because you are just a wounded ego lashing out in pain. I am only talking to you because it’s the humane thing to do at this point.
You are responsible for your own actions, no one else. Please reconsider taking s break from the internet and politics, heal up, apologize to the Prof, and try to make a fresh start. It’s the best offer you are going to get.
Wow. You are sooooo wonderful and victorious…!!!
What a supersaturating asshole.
Wow. Fen has a Baghdad Bob moment. lol
If you are trying to show “Rags” in a bad light it is a massive fail. You comment reflects badly on you not him.
You seem to be unable to get over anyone that didn’t or doesn’t support or vote for Trump.
I didn’t vote for him. I got over it when he won and hoped he would be a better POTUS than I hoped although I held out no hope he would be a better man.
He’s exceeded my hopes as POTUS.
So if you want to attack me every time I show up – have at it. I couldn’t care less.
I know it’s hard to believe, but maybe Hilliary is just a corrupt, opportunistic, self-serving politician.
Shut your mouth!
I spewed my coffee on that comment. lol
I wonder how may votes Cuomo will lose as a result of sore head loser Hillary’s endorsement?
Yeah, my thought was that Nixon probably heaved a sigh of relief when she found out that Hillary wasn’t going to endorse her.
@rinardman: How could you even think such a thing!!!
/ I know…
I’m deplorable.
“There’s a special place in hell for women who don’t help each other.” — Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright
Hell is going to be awfully full then!
Bill told her to support the white guy.
Any more, when I see her mug, I think are just a few items missing. A shawl over her shoulders, a shopping cart of empty soda cans and bottles, and a few other bottles, not empty, with names like Thunderbird and Wild Irish Rose.
I’m more looking for big steel bearings and hearing her go on about strawberries.
I know people can be caught in awkward pictures, where they get snapped in a pose or with an expression that looks unflattering, but Hillary looks crazy, I mean total loony bin full bore needs a straight jacket crazy, in so many pictures. I think her mask is slipping.
Add to the insane looks and expressions, you have her insane words. Thank God she was not elected President.
Hear that Andrew?
Hillary is going to endorse you!
That’s terrific!
I guess…
Took a nap this afternoon and dreamed I was naked in a motel room and on the bed was Hillary and Madeline Albright, both also naked except for pussy hats, each lasciviously covering the other with Mazola oil drawn with paint rollers from five gallon pails beside the bed and licking their lips. They took turns calling out, “next!” “Next!”, staring at me with glowing red eyes. The shock woke me up and my neighbor interceded before I could actually commit suicide, having gone outside to do it to spare the carpet. I may never be able to shut my eyes again.
(((SHUDDER)))
Well, thanks for that gruesome picture you painted, HH.
Now I’m afraid to go to sleep!
Last thing I did before I woke up was to rush out the motel room door, whre I was nearly knocked over by rinardman rushing in, holding a paint roller and with an look of anticipatory glee on his face.
“Took a nap this afternoon and dreamed I was naked in a motel room and on the bed was Hillary and Madeline Albright…”
You need to see a shrink, Henry.
I am a shrink. Like the DOJ, I have investigated myself and declared myself sane.
Did you dream about the obscene act albright performed on kim sung un (while on her knees)?
Bad news: it wasnt a dream.
The question is: What compromising information does Andrew Cuomo have on Hillary that compelled her to abandon her feminist principles to make this endorsement of a white guy?
WE NEED AN INVESTIGATION!
Maybe Cuomo offered her something which is in very short supply today, something which even Bill is unwilling to do for her?
If anyone cares to check Cynthia Nixon’s Twitter feed, it’s full of sophomoric race-baiting.
I will be voting for Marc Molinaro, who is the County Executive where I live in Dutchess County. He was the mayor of Tivoli, NY when he was 19. Hardest working politician I’ve seen.
Liberal women politicians will take some small hit from this. Some women voters, and maybe a male or two, will feel released from the obligation they previously felt to vote for the women in every case.
Financial entanglement between the Clinton and Cuomo machines likely goes back a long, long time. Nixon’s a newbie wannabe starting out at the top, but more importantly, she doesn’t have the power or money worthy of a Clinton leaching.
Nixon should be thankful that Hillary gave her toxic endorsement to someone else; it would not help at all with her campaign. She should use it to her advantage and start branding Cuomo with a “forever name” like Crooked Hillary.
I agree. Perhaps the Clinton Crime Syndicate Empress knows how toxic her endorsement would be sp she is giving it to Cuomo.
LOL
I can see Jane Hathaway’s….er….Nixon’s….campaign slogan now.
“NOT WITH HER!”
“There is a special place in hell for women who do not help other women”
Because, apparently, not only is feeling entitled to the help of women just because you’re also a woman not an example of “entitlement”, the character and politics of said self-entitled woman should have no bearing on whether she deserves that help.
That useless old fraud Albright may have been the most overrated, overhyped winner of a mere Participation Trophy since Amelia Earhart. As for that “special place in hell” drivel, I hope they carve it on her tombstone, then plant shrubbery in front of it so no American ever has to see it.
Maybe Hillary can’t bring herself to vote the name Nixon ?
Maybe if Nixon loses the primary she will run as a third party. Won’t that make it interesting.
