Matt Stoller tells us that George Soros gave $500 to Kevin Powell who is running in a primary against Ed Towns in New York’s 10th Congressional District (scroll down for map).
Not only is Towns a cosponsor of HR 676, he sits on the critical House Health subcommittee, so his support is crucial for getting this out of committee.
Powell also supports single payer and has a very clever presentation that explains the concept.
I don’t know the issues in this race, I hope that netroots stays out of this and permits Brooklyn Democrats to judge for themselves.

Kevin may win.
Real World Season One FTW!
He’s a smart dude too. (sans the shouting match with Julie out in the street, damn I’m kinda old)
omg--it is him!
but not good— Towns is good — and Kevin has no experience, does he?
Towns has a MSW, and worked at
Beth Israel—and he has hands-on experience with health and social services. — http://www.townsforcongress.com/index.ph…
You Supported Clinton
Did anyone see this today?

Seems there’s a “You Supported Clinton” charge going around. Even the likes of Rep. John Lewis is getting attacked by Obama fans. There’s new a new code phrase…”out of touch with his constituents,” to say this person wasn’t with us so he must go. Check it out. PUMA

Hmmmmm…
nasty business.
My initial reaction is probably correct. Kevin will win.
Nasty.
This is really ugly
and confirms my view that Obama is a bully.
