Dear Friends,
I am taking time today to announce my candidacy for the US Senate seat being vacated by Hillary Clinton as she takes her position with the new incoming Administration. My only other announced opponent in this race is Caroline Kennedy.
The way I look at it, if a woman who virtually no one knows other than by virtue of her last name, smashing good looks and copious amounts of money can “run” for the seat, so too can a blue collar guy from Putnam County, NY. But I’m a better choice and here’s why:
Here are the benefits of sending me to the US Senate:
I’m an unknown and have no political affiliations or present loyalties meaning I owe no one anything, no favors and no paybacks. I come to office pretty clean. Rich people don’t get or stay rich by being “clean”.
I’m not a lawyer even though my mother wishes – to this day – that I was one. Do we really need another lawyer in the Senate? Are there any painters in the Senate? They need one.
I have a bit of a corporate background but am now working in a blue collar environment [...]

On Monday I noted in this column that Assembly candidate John Degnan had been struck by a car driven by a worker for the Ball campaign. Assemblyman Ball denied that the driver, Chris Arnold, worked for him. Yet, according to a report in the Putnam Courier, that paper received an email from Mr. Arnold on October 30th signing it, “Christopher Arnold, Communications Director, New Yorkers on the Ball.” We’ve got two more years of that crap.
