Suzannah B. Troy's comment on Wayne Barrett's New piece on Mike Bloomberg scorecard hit and misses
http://www.villagevoice.com/2009-10-13/news/a-bloomberg-score-card-the-mayor-s-misses-but-also-his-biggest-hits/1I like Barrett's insights in to Bloomberg and his relations with media moguls. Just more reasons that guys like Mort Zuckerman testify that Bloomberg must have a third term. I found this tidbit Page 51 Leonard Levitt NYPD Confidential Giuliani forgives Mort Zuckerman's $38 million forfeiture fee for failing to close Coliseum deal. Adam Lisberg reports Bloomberg's people are worried. Did they do the math on how many people are hanging up on Bloomberg's campaign volunteers cold calling New Yorkers? Lisberg also talks about apathetic low voter turn out being a concern as well as the fact the mayor FINALLY has figured out the people of New York are fuming over being denied a referendum as well as having their neighbors made over to resemble Miami Beach or Dubai plus mass evictions and the closure-push out of so many small businesses we all held dear. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIo39mLCuaA If Mike wins, he wins spending the most money ever although most of the mega millions went to campaign people, advertising execs and special interest groups. If he loses, he loses spending the most money ever -- egg on his face NYC style. Bloomberg should have spent less on high priced hired hands and just handed out a 100 million on the streets of New York. Bloomberg's biggest hit and miss is with the people of New York. I keep returning to my first YouTube "Mayor Bloomberg King of New York". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E67PYtwkTUo He isn't going to break the laws, just change them.
