Rose’s politics are decidedly liberal, even if his rhetoric feels spiky and nonpartisan. He is an unapologetic defender of unions (a prerequisite to win on Staten Island), he supports a public health care option (just not the abolishment of private insurance), he believes the eligibility age for Medicare should be dramatically lowered (to somewhere between 50 and 55), and he refuses to accept campaign donations from corporate PACs and lobbyists (the NRA is a bunch of “bandits with blood money”).

It's easy to pick and choose for the most sensational effect.... maybe that's the reason I picked and chose from the same article

Anyone has any idea about NY-11 Max Rose chance (Staten Island/south Brooklyn district) [View all] Claustrum Oct 2020 OP

Just a hunch by a supporter who is voting for him, but it appears his campaign is stronger this time beastie boy Oct 2020 #1

Thanks! Claustrum Oct 2020 #2

I think the vote between Trump and Biden will split evenly, favoring Trump slightly. beastie boy Oct 2020 #3

Just saw a post in a Bay Ridge group on FB musette_sf Oct 2020 #4

Just got mail from Rose Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #5

Sounds about right, When it comes to party unity Rose is like Tulsi without Russian money. Nt FreepFryer Oct 2020 #6

This is from four years ago... brooklynite Oct 2020 #57

It's not from 4 years ago, it's from October 2020. Why do you post such instantly debunked untruths? Celerity Oct 2020 #59

Ack, does he really believe there will be republicans that will break for him? Claustrum Oct 2020 #7

Why? Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #11

So are you telling me that I shouldn't vote for him so his republican opponent could win? Claustrum Oct 2020 #13

No I'm asking what is the difference Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #17

The difference is, Like another poster said, he actually votes 97% with Nancy Pelosi. Claustrum Oct 2020 #19

Members of Congress have nothing to do with roads. Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #29

I just did a quick search and compared Max Rose and Nancy Pelosi's voting record. Claustrum Oct 2020 #43

That's great Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #55

Funny, I just got mail from Nicole Malliotakis, his Republican opponent. beastie boy Oct 2020 #8

LOL... Rose's canvass people just dropped off Max's mailer at my house a few minutes ago Claustrum Oct 2020 #10

Attacking Democrats is what he does to play up to GOP Staten islanders. FreepFryer Oct 2020 #12

DeBlazio is just one Democrat, not "Democrats". beastie boy Oct 2020 #18

Right on. Claustrum Oct 2020 #21

He lost me ganging up on Pelosi (D). Bad judgment, not GOP but hopefully not around much longer (Nt) FreepFryer Oct 2020 #25

I definitely found quite a few things that Max Rose did or said that I disagree with. Claustrum Oct 2020 #26

I would rather the Democrats learn the lesson not to win districts by running against the caucus FreepFryer Oct 2020 #34

Ideally, I agree. Claustrum Oct 2020 #37

How is DeBlazio worse compared to Giuliani or stop-and-frisk Bloomberg? JonLP24 Oct 2020 #35

Seriously. The goal posts get pushed and folks forget the GOP talking points they reinforce. Nt FreepFryer Oct 2020 #36

DeBlasio stinks in so many ways... Dorian Gray Oct 2020 #44

His ads are so RW you would think he's a republican. Renew Deal Oct 2020 #15

It's sad. But that's what he needs to do if he wants any of the independent votes. Claustrum Oct 2020 #16

Not his pro-police ads Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #20

What pro-Trump ads? I haven't seen them Claustrum Oct 2020 #22

Well there is this one Trumpocalypse Oct 2020 #30

You are pushing a big Trump lie. Biden and Dems said that Trump waiting until MARCH to ban travel Celerity Oct 2020 #50

Thanks for the clarification. I never meant it in the same way Trump did. Claustrum Oct 2020 #52

and now I see where you could have thought I was saying you were wilfully doing it, Celerity Oct 2020 #54

I heard turnout is pretty high Marius25 Oct 2020 #23

Thanks for the report. Claustrum Oct 2020 #24

I just don't see it flipping. NorthOf270 Oct 2020 #27

You mean flipping for Trump? Claustrum Oct 2020 #28

Flipping to the Repug challenger NorthOf270 Oct 2020 #38

Ah, sorry. Claustrum Oct 2020 #39

Trump may lose it NorthOf270 Oct 2020 #41

His opoonant Dorian Gray Oct 2020 #42

Pro-Trump turnout is going to be very high on the Island Azathoth Oct 2020 #45

Judging from this thread, his pro-Trump stance seems to hurt him more than help him. Claustrum Oct 2020 #46

Amongst DUers. I doubt it hurts him in Staten Island Azathoth Oct 2020 #47

I agree with your analysis. Claustrum Oct 2020 #48
