Hardly, so don't flatter yourself.

Oh, and for the record, I never said you'd never admit to being "wrong" (even if "wrong" was the result of dishonesty).

I said the odds were slim...

Fine.

Then refute that link by providing a link which illustrates that none of the Democrats listed on the Wiki page ever held that office...

As you Rwers do , you take a very little point and blow into something it isn't .

The 23rd has been gerrymandered and cut up more than most it seems.
The outcome made history in the rural House district covering Northern and Central New York, one of the geographically largest east of the Mississippi. It is the first time someone other than a Republican has represented the heart of the region – Jefferson, St. Lawrence and Franklin counties – since the GOP was established in 1856 and the first Republicans were seated in the House in 1857.
The last Democrat elected to a House seat from the region was Frances E. Spinner, who represented St. Lawrence County in Congress from 1855 to 1857.
And then this:
"This race turned out to be the worst of all possible worlds for Republicans as not only did the Democrat, Bill Owens, win a seat that Democrats have not held in more than 100 years, but what occurred in New York has exposed a war within the Republican Party that will not soon end," said Tim Kaine, chairman of the Democratic National Committee.

You are basically misunderstanding what you see on that page, but then y'all always do that. Where Rwers are seldom correct , but always certain , the left is seldom certain but nearly always right.

BTW- I want to congratulate you for finally finding a way to call someone a liar without using the word. The only problem is that the preponderance of evidence & logic proves that I am the honest one. One little misunderstanding of a flawed source is all you have. You take the Rush Limbaugh award

Wiki says McNulty (D) was the 23rd last Dem, interestingly, I found this 1988 website which reports:

23rd Congressional District, Sam Stratton (D) retiring
Michael R. McNulty (D) Peter M. Bakal (R, Cns)

D.C.'s Political Report: 1988 New York Presidential and Congressional Results

There are numerous other websites mentioning McNulty as the last Dem to represent the district. Funny how the Mainstream Media run with whatever the DNC spin machine tells them.

They can't.

EagleTed · #**219** (**permalink**) 2 Weeks Ago

Mike (McNulty) was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives for the 23rd Congressional District of New York in 1988, and was re-elected in 1990. In 1992, he was elected to represent the new 21st Congressional District, and was re-elected in 1994, 1996, 1998, 2000 and 2002.

EagleTed · #**220** (**permalink**) 2 Weeks Ago

In 1988, Michael McNulty was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives for the 23rd Congressional District of New York. Currently in his tenth term in office, longer than anyone has served in that seat, he represents the 21st Congressional District, which includes all of Albany, Montgomery, Schenectady and Schoharie Counties, and portions of Fulton, Rensselaer and Saratoga Counties.

That's what I love about the internet. Lies are exposed in record time, increasing the distrust of elected officials and their propaganda arm.

So I'm supposed to just accept some online piece from Syracuse.com?

Really?

How does that complete refute a reference which shows that Democrats have, in fact, held that seat?

Oh, and you calling me a RW'er, again, is funny. It's sad, too, because you show just how much you're unable to employ logic and reason, but it's still funny...

See, that means nothing to me, so your attempt at a slur is a pathetic fail. I haven't listened to Limbaugh since the early 90's. He, and what he has to say, mean nothing to me...

Please, Ted, don't fill Knute's heads with facts.

He may stop making himself look foolish and, really, what fun would that be?

Seems that the wrong right do not even read their own sources. Turns out that PARTS of the current 23 rd have never been represented by a Democrat:

Quote:

The 23rd Congressional District of New York is New York's northernmost congressional district for the United States House of Representatives. The district includes all or parts of Clinton, Essex, Franklin, Fulton, Hamilton, Jefferson, Lewis, Madison, Oneida, Oswego and St. Lawrence counties. It includes the cities of Ogdensburg, Oswego, Plattsburgh and Watertown. The district includes most of the Adirondack Mountains and the Thousand Islands region, and borders Canada to the north.
New York's 23rd congressional district has historically been one of the most Republican districts in the United States. Most of the area in what is NY-23 has not been represented by a Democrat since the 19th century. A large portion -- including the largest city, Watertown — has not been represented by a Democrat since the 1850's. In parts of the district, the last non-Republican Representative was a Whig.[1]

New York's 23rd congressional district - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My mistake was focusing on the total current district. It is parts that have not been represented by a DEM.
I learned from this, but I will bet y'all won't and will continue in your selective and wrong understanding.
