The Daily News Ken Lovett (who covered my first race for mayor in 1991) says key Democrats and labor bosses are even more nervous about 2010 following the election of Scott Brown as US Senator from neighboring Massachusetts.
That's why they don't want to take a chance on Governor David Paterson heading the Democrat and Working Families lines on the ballot. They are worried the down ballot candidates will suffer.......Gee you think Montserrate or Espada might lose ?
The clamor is starting for Andrew Cuomo to announce for governor in order to save the day should the ranks of haters, racists and teabaggers become too much of a force at the ballot box.
For Paterson, its time to man-up as the pressure will be intense....For the good of the party, don't you know.

Jeff, your lead-in to the article is well-written. The article itself can best be enjoyed by old men with nothing better to do on a cold snowy day, and clearly shows why there is so much voter apathy.
There's mostly voter apathy becuz, regardless of election results, not a damn thing ever gets done. And, we get local yokel politicians handing out corporate welfare to Big Wind and others that should be paying their fair share in taxes along side the rest of us schmucks. Giving these yahoos $$ in exchange for "bringing jobs into the area" is b.s. Pay your damn taxes!
There isn't anything being given to "Big Wind" Evil. This latest snit shows we're bleeding new business for everything we can get. All to make sure our teachers and government employees get everything they possibly can. I have no problem with that. But Evil, I don't see where you are going to benefit one bit. But if you feel vindicated that's fine with me. Screw them companies. Rah, rah, and all that.
