What's that stench?

Why it's New York politics. From the NY Sun editorial page comes a good question for New York Attorney General Elliot Spitzer: Why no interest in cleaning up the MTA/transit strike mess? It's only a rhetorical question, of course. The answer is that Spitzer is running for Governor and needs votes. And Albany's current biggest, emptiest suit, George Pataki, doesn't fare much better. As the Sun points out, Big Ack spent the run-up to this criminal sabotage in not-NY, campaigning for a presidency that will never, ever be his, at least until inaction (Ground Zero anyone?) and boring the shit out of people are considered political assets.

'at least until inaction (Ground Zero anyone?) and boring the shit out of people are considered political assets.'

It got John Kerry 59 million votes.

fair, Jack but Kerry was at least offensive enough to motivate the angry left. When I think Pataki I think naptime.
