Hevesi and the Retarded Political System of New York State

Dec 21, 2006 10:46

I don't know if you've read the new yet but Alan Hevesi is going to resign as Comptroller for the State of New York. He's also going to plead guilty to some watered-down felony so he doesn't have to serve any jail time. Good for him. He'll be home for the holidays ( Read more... )

if you're into party politics, then voting for hevesi wasn't as dumb as it seems on the surface. if you're a staunch democrat, and you HATE hevesi, and/or you KNEW he would resign, you should have still voted for him. why? because when he resigns/gets removed then the democrats get to chose a replacement ( ... )

hehe I read it all.

I am sort of ashamed that I voted for Hevesi because of the reason you & Myron don't really believe in - and that it was a vote for the party. I always looks at things as what is the best scenario that can actually happen. I realize that sometimes I leave the best person out but I don't have faith that anyone other than a democrat or republican would get elected so then my vote would be wasted. ugh I always go back & forth on the issue.
