Paladino's gay issues hounds NY governor campaign
AP via SFGate ^ | 10/13/10 | MICHAEL GORMLEY, Associated Press Writer

Republican candidate for governor Carl Paladino rails against gay marriage and called the bumping-and-griding at gay pride parades disgusting. He also once was the landlord for two gay clubs in Buffalo.

The real estate deal, first reported Wednesday by the New York Daily News, left Democrats calling him a hypocrite. Paladino's campaign said it proved that he supports gay rights, just not gay marriage. Meanwhile, a rabbi who represents an umbrella organization of ultra-Orthodox clerics said he was dropping his endorsement of Paladino because the candidate had apologized for the harsh wording of some of his comments about gays.

Truthfully I think Paladino can win. He has signs all over (when they aren’t stolen) but Cuomo has none. What scares me is voter fraud. I believe that’s the only way Hillary won. I think they’ll try it again. We need a huge turnout to overwhelm fraud.

People need to gird their loins

Uh oh. Wasn't that what Carl was complaining about originally?

Thank you. We need them. And so does Paladino.

Gay guys are always obsessing over their gayness. You hadn't heard?

Sorry I’m dense...crossing right hand?

Is that a tennis term?

There are many gaping holes in my education and knowledge...

ROTFLOL!

Sometimes I think I should have been born a man. I want to fight the bad guys!!!!!

Yes I do!

My DH says I should have a talk radio program... ‘Cause I can go on non-stop once riled up and all it takes is reading FR for 30 seconds to get riled up. Or just thinking for about half a second.

Well, going hand to hand gets a result, an outcome ....

Debate and political alignment sets the stage for the victory.

Everything is getting so interesting I hardly want to go to sleep lately.

I hope people are taking notes for the books.

Did you look at the other Paladino thread?

Still another thread says that as of Monday, Harry Reid is behind Sharron Angle 55-44 -- wow, it's awful late for him to be so far behind, AFTER he spent a ton of money on attack ads. Dare we hope?

Oh, and he's dipping into the Dims' senate campaign funds for another $2.5 mill, money that they had thought they'd be able to spend in other states (Feingold in Wisc. and Babs Boxer are both endangered) because Reid had so damn much money last spring. (Slush funds! TARP money, I'll bet!!)

Please contact me if you’re interested in being added on or taken off the Carl Paladino for Governor ping list. This looks to be a fairly high volume ping list for a while, probably until the election.
