    New York State’s most powerful Jewish powerbroker has fallen.
    The city awoke Thursday morning to a political world turned inside out.

    Certain standards of debate are expected, and will be enforced... There's been a serious decrease in the signal to noise ratio in the forum recently, and that trend requires reversal.

    If your OP consists of nothing more than a two-line thought that just popped into your head, don't start a thread.

    This forum is not a newsdump... All OP's and posts require some input of your own.
