After a bruising battle with Maffei last election season, Jim Walsh of Syracuse seems chastened--at least chastened enough to join 16 other Republicans in voting for the House's nonbinding resolution against the "surge." He was the only NY GOP Congressperson to do so. I have always said, if we get rid of all moderate Republicans in NY, we will lose the chance for modest victories like these (however meaningless they might be in the larger scheme of things).
