Some sources are beginning to call Penn for Obama. He's going to win this thing. http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2008/11/815-pm-update.html...

On November 4, 2008 10:40 AM in Finally: Election Day 2008 is Here, they said:

0 minute wait at my polling station in brooklyn heights (122nd district)-- we just walked right in. a few of the other precincts at the same place had what looked like a 15 minute wait. everyone see...

On October 24, 2008 2:13 PM in McCain Reveals Elitists are in NYC, DC, they said:

It's pretty unfair that they call us elitist, and then we have to die for their stupid ass policies when New York inevitably gets bombed as a result of them. That's definitely adding insult to injury....

On October 3, 2008 10:56 AM in Banksygate 2008: The Natives Respond, they said:

you can't see it from the angle above, but to the right of the "damn rats" piece it says "to all the real night creatures!!" my guess is the piece is by katsu, who is responding to banksy going over ...

On September 28, 2008 12:35 PM in Banksy Loves New York: The Completed Mural, they said:

Boo has wings, so it's not him. And it's definitely Banksy....

On September 12, 2008 5:21 PM in We'll Take the Stairs, they said:

it doesn't look 'shopped to me-- look at the shadow by the right arm. the jaggy left side looks like compression error....

On August 12, 2008 10:42 AM in NY1 Re-Launches Its Website, they said:

I'd like to see them: 1. Tighten up the design a little (too much stuff in the left column, too much white space in the header and right column) 2. Make the videos embeddable on to other sites 3. Mak...

On August 9, 2008 6:47 PM in Extra, Extra, they said:

i took it yesterday in red hook....

On August 6, 2008 2:03 PM in Park Slope, Boerum Hill Have the Greenest Blocks, they said:

ah, i didn't realize that. i thought it was based on some kind of aerial survey! then indeed, they should contact the neighborhood groups in the south brooklyn neighborhoods-- because i think there ...

On August 6, 2008 12:16 PM in Park Slope, Boerum Hill Have the Greenest Blocks, they said:

i think it's a little suspicious how the winners so often come from brownstone brooklyn, when so many of the neighborhoods south and east brooklyn seem to be really green. like ditmas park-- an avera...

On July 18, 2008 11:53 AM in Brooklyn's "Chef Dan" Arrested for Credit Card Identity Theft, they said:

yeah, $25K is just puzzling, especially stealing it on credit cards like that-- because you know you're going to get caught pretty quick. sounds like there's a bigger story here that hasn't been writ...

that was the most amazing sports match i've ever seen-- total insanity....

On June 29, 2008 4:51 PM in Model Apparently Jumps to Death in Lower Manhattan, they said:

I've gone through again just now and deleted the most offensive and inappropriate comments. It goes without saying that we at Gothamist hates trolling, inappropriate, ridiculous comments. That goe...

On June 26, 2008 9:31 AM in The Waterfalls are Here!, they said:

@ JCB -- I definitely felt a little underwhelmed this morning. Maybe it was seeing them from the Brooklyn side-- you can definitely see all four falls, but for the two in Brooklyn, you're seeing them...

On June 24, 2008 5:01 PM in Exclusive: Inside Kent Avenue Powerhouse Demolition, they said:

this is a total loss-- we're going to get another glass tower condo on the site, when we could have had something really interesting (mixed-use, a community center, live/work artistan space, etc.) hel...

On June 24, 2008 8:53 AM in Fatal Lower East Side Shooting Leaves Teen Dead, they said:

The corner of Eldridge and Stanton has always been a trouble spot for the neighborhood-- the local precinct should really setup a 24/7 outpost there, the way they do in some other neighborhoods in the...

On June 20, 2008 2:46 PM in Brooklyn Bridge Waterfall Tested, Ready, they said:

finally, i can relax-- i couldn't focus on anything else until i knew we had seen pix of all four! for what it's worth, i think this one looks the best of all the ones so far-- i think the brooklyn b...

On June 18, 2008 12:12 PM in Exclusive: Brooklyn Waterfall Turned On For First Time, they said:

I think we just meant this set of pix was exclusive-- not the existence of the waterfalls. That's been known for at least 24 hours!...

On June 18, 2008 11:26 AM in Exclusive: Brooklyn Waterfall Turned On For First Time, they said:

It was-- I think that could be a problem. There was only a light wind, but the water was really being pushed back towards Furman Street-- when I was standing a block behind the falls, I was getting ...

On June 17, 2008 3:47 PM in New Tenement Apartment: Before and After, they said:
