Mike McIntyre cuts and ru… what’s that? CAROLYN MCCARTHY (D, NY-04) is out?

Carolyn “I’m blaming my lung cancer on my father being around asbestos and not my pack-a-day habit?” McCarthy? Carolyn “I used Heath Shuler’s money-laundering-for-lobbyists scheme” McCarthy? Carolyn “PMA Porker” McCarthy?

Ayup. Announced it at the same time as McIntyre.  My response?

“O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.

There are a multitude of pleasures in the world, and many do in fact surpass the one of watching a bad legislator decide that it’s no fun anymore and that it’s time for her to go home. But this is still a happy thing to see. Oh, sure, it’s supposedly an impossible district for us (although Cook is now scoring it as Lean Democrat*); but whoever replaces McCarthy would still be an improvement.  Probably.

No, wait, I forgot: “barrel shrouds.” The woman tried to ban them, and she didn’t even know what they were.

Yeah, whoever replaces her would be an improvement.

PS: What, Mike McIntyre?  Poor so-and-so was dead in the water and his district is now Likely Republican. …Which we knew, already.  Seriously, it’s not like the Democrats were going to retake the House anyway

  1. Mike McIntyre won reelection in 2012 by a whopping 654 votes. He did not vote for Obamacare but life is too short to run as a Democrat in post-Obamacare NC.
