Although NY is certainly left, there are also big Jewish populations to whom these Democrats would have to answer, so maybe that will keep them honest, at least on this issue.

Congressional Democrats from New York have lashed out at the Obama administration’s deal on Iran’s nuclear program, arguing that it doesn’t go far enough to block the rogue nation from developing bombs.
“The prospect of an Iran armed with nuclear weapons is simply intolerable, and I have long said that we must do everything we can do to prevent Iran from ever obtaining such weapons,” Rep. Jerrold Nadler (D-Manhattan) said in a statement.
“The ultimate question will not be ‘Is this the best deal in the world?’ but rather, ‘Is this the best course of action . . . to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons?’ ”
Reps. Eliot Engel (D-Bronx) and Nita Lowey (D-Westchester) had similar concerns.
“There are too many unanswered questions. Iran needs to be far more forthcoming before we are comfortable with this deal,” Engel, the ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, told CNN.
