It's a Democrat!

Ok... I know this story is already old news, having broken nearly two hours ago, but I just want to say for the record, that despite my efforts to write and post the story before 1 p.m., it has not yet appeared on our website. For anyone out there reading, here's the story:


It’s a Democrat!

By ANDREW J. BERNSTEIN

BATHESDA — U.S. Rep. Kirsten Gillibrand gave birth to her second son on Thursday morning.

The boy, named Henry Nelson Gillibrand, weighs 7 pounds, 14 ounces, and is 20 inches long. He was born at the Bathesda Naval Medical Center.

Mike Russo, Gillibrand’s district director, said both baby and mother are resting comfortably.

Gillibrand, D-Hudson, put in a 14 hour day on Wednesday working on legislation, and chose to deliver her second child in Washington D.C., to avoid missing votes on the floor.

Henry Nelson joins the congresswoman, her husband Jonathan, and 4-year old Theodore.

Gillibrand was due on May 18, and delivered three days early.
