ps. If your from Citistat, I didn’t mean to rush you.

Singling out the Mayor is the equivelent of burrying your head in the sand. If you want real change, then get the legislature to pass a ballot initiative process. Then the people can pass measures to break the patronage maching statewide.

The way to do it is pretty clear. Just get a deep pocket like the Wendt Foundation to set up a shell organization like CBB. Then CBB can use Wendt money to make contributions to every elected officials campaign with some encouragement to pass a ballot initiative process. The trustees of the Wendt Foundation do this stuff all the time, they are as dirty as the politicians. So, using their money to manipulate the political system, and the courts if necessary, would be no problem for them.

If the ends justify the means, then let’s send a proposal to the Wendt Foundation to set up a bunch of bogus citizens groups and manipulate Albany. We can use the model the Wendt trustees (Kresse, Day and Lunt) used to hassle the Seneca over their casino license.

If the Wendt trustees are too intrenched in the currupt system to do this service to the public, then we can set up out own tax exempt foundation and do it ourselfs. What a scam, setting up a tax shelter to manipulate the political system. Thanks for the idea Wendt trustees.

If you have “lots of good inside info to come;”
how about showing a small sample? (if you’ve got anything?).
Otherwise, I’m going to have to stick with the Mayor and the figures from city hall.

Good Luck, Inside
I hope you could do it!
