THE BAD NEWS LAIR (Democrat donor Connie Milstein to buy apartment, 15.7 million asking price)
New York Post ^ | 12/24/05 | BRADEN KEIL

Posted on 12/24/2005 3:13:05 PM PST by lowbridge

Wealthy Democratic political gadfly Connie Milstein, who calls herself "an ordinary Park Avenue matron," will now have to change her tune.

Sources tells us the heiress to the Milstein real-estate fortune has just gone to contract to buy a Fifth Avenue duplex apartment with a $15.7 million asking price.

Milstein made a name for herself in 2000 during the Bush-Gore election when she was caught on camera bribing homeless potential voters with cigarettes in exchange for a vote for Gore. She was eventually fined $5,000 for her spirited activism.

Unlike the homeless, Ms. Milstein has signed on to take a mint-condition 12-room apartment at 998 Fifth Ave. that features four bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths, two maid's rooms, leaded stained-glass windows and three wood-burning fireplaces. Maintenance is $7,300 a month.

The historical limestone-and-marble-trim building, completed in 1912, was designed by McKim, Mead & White, and is considered the first apartment house built for the truly wealthy and socially elite.

It's "spirited activism" when a DemonRAT does that in a county where corrupt DemonRAT E. Michael McCann is the district attorney (that would be Milwaukee County).

Funny how those who didn't earn their money (except perhaps on her back) spend it in such frivolous ways. Compare to a Walton, a Buffett, etc.

With New Yorks enviromentalist laws?

It'll have to be imported in from Canada or Russia.

Besides, its just too gauche to have domestic lumber. Only imported lumber will do.

This clueless bitch, is the epitome of the limousine liberals that won't give of their own to "uplift" the poor -- but will tax you to death to do so.

Semper Fi

"Wealthy but classless and evil."
Development of "class" normally takes several generations. I'd say, at least 4. [Wasn't 4 generations minimal pedigree length for noble status?]

How wasteful to burn a good food source. Michael Moore is spinning in his orbit.
