After suffering her ninth and tenth consecutive losses in a row last night, it’s understandable that Hillary Clinton this morning called for an alternate reality.

“Let’s get real,” she said in a Hunter College auditorium that seemed to be packed mostly with the middle-aged women who make up her base. “Let’s get real about this election. Let’s get real about our future.”

With the must-win contests in Texas and Ohio looming, Clinton’s task of exorcising Democratic voters of their enchantment with Barack Obama seems more difficult by the day. This morning, she continued to try to turn Obama’s eloquence against him by suggesting, once again, that he is all fancy talk and no action.  read more »

Hunter's Jennifer Raab
Hunter College jumps into real estate Hunter College is getting into the real-estate business. College President Jennifer Raab wants to sell off the school's 3.5-acre Kips Bay nursing campus, near the recently sold Peter Cooper Village at 25th Street and the F.D.R. Drive, and build a 16-story building for science and health-professions programs at 67th Street and Second Avenue, closer to its overcrowded main campus on the Upper East Side. Go to the story by Matthew Schuerman Artist's old Soho haunt sells for $9 million When the 94-year-old painter Buffie Johnson, a stalwart of Abstract Expressionism, died this August, she left behind a three-story loft building at 102 Greene Street. Her estate listed the 8,968-square-foot place with Corcoran vice president Wendy Maitland for $8.5 million, and Ms. Maitland said this week that it's gone to contract for over $9 million.

Today marked the historic first debate between the four Democratic candidates for Mayor.

Well, actually, there were only three candidates at the Hunter College event, as Freddy bagged it. And they just gave their stump speeches and answered questions. And, oh, Virginia didn't actually give a speech.

There were, according to the official WBAI estimate, a full 54 people in the huge auditorium. One of them left after a scuffle over his question about Tibet. (Anthony did get a chance to deny any link between the Jets Stadium and Chinese human rights violations.) Giff cleared up one thing for us: "I don't think there is a proposal to build a nuclear facility in Brooklyn."
