Chameleon on plaid: Who is Kirsten Gillibrand?
NY Post ^ | April 16, 2010 | DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN

Kirsten Gillibrand, New York's junior senator, doesn't just flip-flop on is sues as convenient -- she also revises her past.

Voters, beware: Gillibrand is a chameleon on plaid, a woman who has and will do anything, say anything, forget anything, spin anything to get elected.

Her 180-degree reversals on gun control, gay marriage and immigration -- making her one of the most liberal members of the Senate -- are old news. But that's far from the only way she remakes herself, as we discuss in our new book, "2010: Take Back America."

Start with her habit of censoring her own history in campaign biographies. Before she got elected to Congress, Gillibrand had spent 14 years as a lawyer in private practice, and just one year working at the Department of Housing and Urban Development.

Everytime Dick Morris humps his book (which is anytime he speaks) it makes me a little ill.

Morris has a sleazy past and he does pump his books with every other breath.

That said, he digs up stuff and exposes it - as he has with Gillibrand. If the New York Republican Party can’t find a candidate who can defeat Gillibrand, it should go out of business.

Exactly, and he's pretty good at it.
