Mayor Bill de Blasio is mad.

"Here's Bezos and here's Amazon, the definition of the one percent. Look how arbitrary this was. Look how little regard there was for everyday people," the mayor said on WNYC's "The Brian Lehrer Show."

Amazon, the tech behemoth he and Governor Andrew Cuomo courted to come to New York, reneged on the deal.

But de Blasio also has tough words for the activists on the left who fought Amazon and won.

"As a progressive my entire life, and I ain't changing, I'll take on any progressive anywhere that thinks it's a good idea to lose jobs and revenue. Because I think that's out of touch with what working people want," he said. 

But those same activists say it's de Blasio who is out of touch, rolling out the red carpet for Amazon and throwing his support behind the plan to give the company $3 billion in tax incentives.

"I think we are seeing a fracturing of the Democratic party," said Jonathan Westin of New York Communities for Change." The mayor, he is trying to straddle that old Democratic corporate left and the new progressive anti-corporate left that is being built, and I think he's having a hard time.

Cuomo says Democrats in the state Senate who fought Amazon should "be held accountable." But Bradley Tusk, who helps tech companies navigate New York, says high-profile opponents, like City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer, state Senator Michael Gianaris and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, are safe.

"Politically, if you were opposed to this, you won. That's it," he said. "I mean, there are clear losers here, Amazon, de Blasio, Cuomo. But if you are Van Bramer, Gianaris, AOC or anyone like that, there's not going to be a backlash at the polls. There's no pro-Amazon voting constituency that is going to turn out on election day to haunt you. 

We may not have to wait long to see if there is an instant Amazon impact at the polls. New Yorkers will vote in a special election for public advocate on February 26, and the candidates positions on Amazon have loomed over the race for months.
