Chapter One Hundred and One
"Ed Koch has done a disservice to the Democratic Party, to all of the people of New York-so let's not let him continue."

-Geraldine Ferraro (1982)

"A recent poll has put Congresswoman Ferraro only one point behind incumbent Senator Koch in the Democratic Senate primary."

-Tom Brokaw (1982)

"Outside New York [City], that whole scandal wasn't as big an issue. The Senate Ethics Committee gave him a slap on the wrist. But he still disappointed a lot of liberals, and that led to Ferraro's insurgency."

-Lee Atwater (1987)
