@ZaidJilani All of the sudden you realize your narrative was never true.

It's been interesting watching the progressive triumphalism over Platner's primary win. As if the real race isn't against Collins and their guy isn't, well, all the things we now know he is.

Platner must be polling fantastically well against Collins in campaign polling for them to take the risk.

I've read lots of theories here: Collins is vulnerable among women over abortion because she voted to confirm Kavanaugh. But will that vulnerability hold if more women come forward against Platner (these kinds of scandals usually grow; they're personality patterns, not isolated failings)?

I've read that her "moderate" and "independent" brand is hurt because she's been in Washington for too long; Mainers are nothing if not independent, and have voted against Trump (splitting their electoral vote 3-1 for the Dems) for the last three cycles. But does Mainers' turn away from Trump mean they will turn as far as Platner's socialism, and overlook his problems?

And again, we can't assume the revelations are over. Until the primary, the revelations were helpful to Democrats, a potential save from a bad candidate. Now they're just campaign fodder for the other side.

I'm an outsider reading other people's analyses here. Not an expert. But I can't figure out why Democrats seem to think this is a good thing. Platner seems like an insane risk. Wouldn't a moderate, normative Democrat with just enough self-respect not to be the kind of creep that makes your skin crawl -- i.e., the average human -- have had a commanding lead and easy victory here?

@yonidoe @havivrettiggur Ridiculous. This guy shouldn't even be on a local board of education.

@davidhazony Embarrassing

A new burger joint opened up in northern Israel, minutes from Israeli towns and villages targeted by daily rocket and drone fire from Hezbollah in Lebanon. CBS News’ Charlie D’Agata spoke with restaurant manager Heskel Schweiger about why the burger joint opened up now at this location, despite all the risks facing communities caught in the crossfire.

What Megyn Kelly and so many others of that ilk keep getting wrong is that Israel isn’t the one thing you can’t criticize.

It’s that, at a certain point, Israel becomes the only thing you do criticize.

We’re not making everything about Israel.

You are.

@SohrabAhmari Of course his patience should be running out with Iran!

@NTarnopolsky One was a planned terror attack. One was a tragic error.

Wow, all restraints on hatred of Jews are being lifted

My sister's friend sent me this video of her being assaulted on the NYC subway yesterday after being told "Jews eat kids."

After the video cut, the assailant began pulling the victim's hair out as well. (I can send media the pics).

Our Islamist Mayor has praised terrorists like the Holy Land Five and refuses to condemn calls for terrorism in America. so there's no expectation the Islamist will help.

I'm therefore asking the DOJ and FBI to investigate and ensure ALL Americans are safe from more pro-Palestinian attacks.

[Stuart Schnee @StuartSchnee]

@mindyisser He had a Nazi tattoo. You should be ashamed of supporting such a person.

[Stuart Schnee @StuartSchnee]

@TheEconomist You are suggesting to Jews how to be Jewish?

[Stuart Schnee @StuartSchnee]

@ymedad You are too kind.
