Actually a little background. I/we are in his district. It was a power play by the NYS Dems. to get rid of one of the most powerful people in Albany. REPUBLICAN - Guy Velella, who is now replaced with a super liberal Dem.
Guy did much for us, and took the job seriesly, and he was hugh in the scheme of things. So it's not really good that he's gone.
Oh yeah, one more thing, the DA who took him down was Bob Morganthau, a liberal Dem. from Manhattan! What the He__ was he doing prosecuting a Bronx person?????????
Compared to what Guy did, Shelly Silver should be doing Life in a federal pen.
