Golisano buys NY Senate

[gales0678]

nothing wrong with that , he helped get the Dems the control last year by spending over $5mm

they then pass a record high tax and spend budget in april

why wouldn't he switch allegiance , we just can't tax people to death , wall st is over for the most part , we don't need billionares leaving to go to florida , we need serious fiscal restriant in this environment and lower taxes to get competitive again

This is a good thing as the Democrats, particularly Patterson and Smith, have proven unable to govern. Hopefully some sense can be injected into NY Government.

Spitzer has double the approval ratings of Patterson right now. You at least have a chance at lucking into a P6, no way Patterson wins re-election. Assuming Cuomo runs he has zero chance of winning the primary.

don't worry about dave , they won't be handing out bread baksets to him when he leaves town

Our frosh senator will probably have a hard time getting the nomination as well , she'll be back in saratoga county in time for the christmas lights next year

My only issue in this situation is one person having way too much influence over the control of the state senate, especially one that is getting that influence by lining the coffers of the senators with campaign donations.

Actually, my bigger issue is that I want Golisano to save his money so he can buy the Bills when Ralph finally passes.
