The thin-skinned Spitzer sure can dish it out, but he cannot take it. Of just about any politician out there, it is Spitzer that I loathe the most. He is a guy that uses the vast resources of the state to crush anyone he wants. He destroys people as a means of punishment and as a means of advancing himself. His actions are evil!

[tioga]

gee, I thought sptiz made money shaking down CEOs.....and such.

[OldFriend]

Just wait until that vile POS Cuomo gets into it against Pirro.

[Vigilanteman]

Read the second line of the article. It sounds like Spitzer is already governor because Faso is introduced as the challenger.

Has Spitzer already been annoited by the media?

[MJemison]

Spitzer announced last week that one of the things he would do to balance the state budget would be to close small (rural) hospitals. His name is mud around here.

You think Faso-Spitzer is bad....I get home and I have several calls from orgs I have never heard of telling me how the Republican in my district has sold his soul to the devil...these calls are from untraceble shadowy groups (aka dirty trick unions) who want this guy to become congressman - God help us:

this FPOS spitzer, will make Mario Homo, look like Pataki...

we are doomed.

[tioga]

he can't touch us......we are so rural we do not have a hospital.........

I saw that little weasal cuomo was running for office again.

[OldFriend]

Cuomo won his primary election against Mark Green. He is as crooked as can be. slimy scummy

[tioga]

I remember the cuoma years in NY well......what a depressing period of time. I can't believe anyone would vote for a cuomo. Spitzer scares me more though.

[OldFriend]

He sounds exactly like his odious tedious father. Wonder if NYers are having flashbacks.

[tioga]

Everytime I go to the dollar store and wander to the book section.....there sits a stack of daddy cuomo's book......collecting dust in the dollar store. I think a lot of NYers are sick of the cuomos.

In New York state the DemocRAT is always annointed by the media. Spencer and Faso are like the goats left out for the T-Rex in Jurassic Park, IMHO that is.

It always got me how people thought that Pere Cuomo was an "excellent speaker." Between his Queens accent and his mispronounciation of three dollar words, the man was as impressive orally as a case of gingivitis.

His son resembles a Simian, with the brains to match...

[OldFriend]

One brother, Chris Cuomo is actually a good broadcaster. He doesn't have that same tone and speech inflection that the others have. Cringemaking.

I don't think Jack Davis has anything to do with those calls. I think that's more liberal interests trying to force Tom Reynolds (after all, he is one of the more powerful people in Congress) out of office than putting Jack Davis in.

Davis is more of an independent than a Democrat (think Golisano).

Thanks for the ping!
