CapitolTonight

Why should politicians be the only ones with parody accounts? Not associated with Spectrum. Follow me on Twitter- that's Capitol Tonight with an O.

But who is Assembly Member A (as noted in the charging docs)

- Spanos
- Kruger
- Hevesi
- Leibell

Another Assemblyman arrested for taking penny-ante bribes. After Stevenson I would have thought everyone would know to reject envelopes full of money in favor of a "campaign contribution." https://t.co/wo2O15mk61

[No IDC NY @NoIDCNY]

Do not allow Jeff Klein to become a judge. We voted out corruption. Do not let the Bronx party inject the corruption back in. cc: @CarlHeastie @MarcosCrespo85 @nydems @ZackFinkNews @TweetBenMax @ShaneGoldmacher

[Matt McDermott @mattmfm]

Gotta say, it’s unbelievably disturbing how many Republican men seem to believe that a teenage guy attempting to rape a woman is just typical “boys being boys” adolescent behavior.

[CapitolTonight @CapitolTonight]

He might have been playing coy at the time, but I bet @JeffKleinNY can now say becoming a Republican was his biggest mistake. https://t.co/FfWISlLC84

[Not Ex-Sen. Jeff Klein @jeffkleinbx]

@nypost “They convinced a lot of people that Klein was a Republican,” said Bronx Assemblyman Jeff Dinowitz, a Klein supporter.
Well Jeff, I was a Republican. #TheIDCisDead

[CapitolTonight @CapitolTonight]

Apart from Valesky, I actually hope the IDCers keep running on the other lines in the General because the only thing better than seeing them lose once would be seeing them lose twice. https://t.co/vYFmfaJdTi

The six counties in which Cuomo performed the best relative to 2014 are all in John Faso's district

@vwang3 It's like my mom used to say, "You can't buy class."

[Not Ex-Sen. Jeff Klein @jeffkleinbx]

Something to ponder - one of Skelos's gifts to Klein for empowering the GOP was to let Klein redraw his district. Klein added significant portions of the Riverdale and Kingsbridge that used to be in the 31st & 33rd. Klein lost big time in those areas. Pride goeth before the fall.

[Ali Najmi @Ali_Najmi]

Jeff Klein’s loss after spending $2M on his race reinforces that money can’t make up for questionable values and no message. Great win by @Biaggi4NY

[Amy Spitalnick @amyspitalnick]

Looks like a few former City Hall colleagues are headed to Albany - congrats @jessicaramos & @SEichenstein! These are the types of public servants needed up there.

To make a tortured metaphor, voters showed that someone who has read sausage recipes, but has never seen sausage being made, is welcome to apply for line cook positions (Senate), but has no business applying to be head chef (Governor).

@CaseySeiler To me, she'll always just be the person that ripped the wig off of Bill Scarborough's head.

[CapitolTonight @CapitolTonight]

Earlene Hooper, an Assemblymember that couldn't even be bothered to set up an email address, lost her primary. She typically claimed 200+ per diems a year. Does this mean she is moving back to LI or is going to just do the other 100 days a year in Albany? https://t.co/BrVsTN9gk2

[CapitolTonight @CapitolTonight]

Senators Klein, Hamilton, Peralta, Alcantara, Avella, and Valesky were dumped by voters that insist Democrats actually be Democrats. Does Savino's win give "Nevertheless, She Persisted" a new meaning?

[CapitolTonight @CapitolTonight]

They set the line for days of Session without an indictment at 15, and I took the over. Why did I take the over? https://t.co/JKJYtDOPSZ

[Fake Sheldon Silver @ShellySilver]

The Sheldon E. Silver Tappan Zee Bridge has a nice ring to it.

The dice are loaded?The poor stay poor?The Captain lied? Everybody Knows is definitely the end of Session theme song https://t.co/UnRqrX0wsI
