Hard to imagine all the changes brought about by the Presidential election.<BR/><BR/>Savor the moment though. Like you said in the other post, the momentum will fade and you'll be left with just the party faithful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-57101253869302362162008-12-01T16:38:00.000-05:002008-12-01T16:38:00.000-05:00I think that Governor Paterson should appoint Cong...I think that Governor Paterson should appoint Congressman Mike McNulty, from the Albany area. <BR/><BR/>Here are some reasons why McNulty is <I>best</I> suited for the position:<BR/><BR/>a) McNulty is well versed at Washington politics and is well liked on both sides of the isle. <BR/><BR/>b) He does not need any “ramp up” time to learn the ins and outs of Washington. He also sits on similar Congressional Committees to that of Senator Clinton's Senate Committees too. <BR/><BR/>c) He lives upstate which creates the opportunity for Governor Paterson to show upstaters that he cares about upstate. <BR/><BR/>d) McNulty, by virtue of his impending retirement in Congress, does not create another void in local, state or federal government. Paul Tonko ran as a Democrat to fill McNulty's seat that he is vacating this month and won. <BR/><BR/>e) Since the appointment is to fill the rest of the term - 2 years - it also gives Congressman McNulty an “out” should he really want to retire in two years AND it would give the voters of the State of NY the opportunity to vote for a non incumbent candidate should McNulty not run.<BR/><BR/>Please pass my recommendation and "vetting" on to "Dave" for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24135583.post-46481605936370015872008-12-01T14:22:00.000-05:002008-12-01T14:22:00.000-05:00Look for Cuomo to get the nod.
