When New York Liberals Hate Sidewalk Art

Maddow Can't Bear the Horror, the Horror of GOP House Victories in NY
The strangest thing happened last night on MSNBC -- its self-proclaimed civics geek Rachel Maddow ignored the results not one but two special elections the day before to fill vacancies in the House.
I know, I know, hard to believe. I mean, every time Maddow does report on elections results -- such as when Democrats win -- she'll segue into her reporting by mock drumming to NBC's bombastic…

WaPo Changes AttackWatch.com-Related Post Title to Make It About 'Cons
