Fresh off the realization that some of Mitt Romney’s biggest supporters live right here on the Upper West Side, the president’s supporters are opening a campaign office on the Upper West Side.

The new office at 410 Columbus Avenue (80th Street) will open on Sunday at 11 a.m., and people will be sitting inside from then until election day calling voters in swing states. Jerry Nadler, Scott Stringer, and Linda Rosenthal are expected to attend the opening, the Real Deal reported.

Obama himself once lived on the Upper West Side. The apartment he rented came back on the market a few months ago.

Thanks to Daren for the tip.

Wow, their office is only two thousand feet from the castle in the park where one of the three oldest thermometer stations in the nation still exists, one that like the others in Minneapolis and Washington, D.C. which also go all the way back to 1820, show utterly no trend change in our high CO2 era and which thus bluntly falsify Democratic claims that recent Global Warming is anything more than a boring continuation of the same natural trend as ever:

Linda Rosenthal, you better hope they are not success and want to expand beyond Mom and Pop Size! that would be illegal now thanks to you and Brewer!

Also, out of your jurisdiction but my thoughts are with you: another Homeless person raped a woman this weekend. Hudson River Park , not UWS but still close enough.

Thank you for caring about us the taxpaying working people of Manhattan’s west side.

Re: Comment by “Beth”: “Still voting for Romney. If I wanted to live in Europe I would move there.”

Sounds like a great move. You would enjoy guaranteed health care, probably free education, longer vacations, a tolerance for unions, and much more in a place with a great social compact. Of course, you might pay more in taxes, but that is what a caring society is all about.

OF COURSE, WITH YOUR REGRESSIVE, ANTI-TAX, ANTI-SHARING EVERY-MAN-FOR-HIMSELF ATTITUDE, YOU PROBABLY WOULD NOT FIT IN TOO WELL AND BE BRANDED JUST-ANOTHER-SELFISH-AMERICANO.

OBAMA 2012!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Obama presidency has been virtually a complete and utter failure. He campaigned (non-stop) against Bush, yet he’s been even worse than Bush, and has “doubled-down” on many of Bush’s policies. In fact, this should be Romney’s slogan – “Romney 2012, it couldn’t possibly be worse than Obama”.
