And why did he/she bother to write this article:
Sam Hoyt Survives Despite Powerful Detractors
No offense, but it's really stupid and so not timely. And, sorry, but not written well, either...
link?

I don't know why you are complaining. The article doesn't bash Hoyt; yes, it rehashes his sordid behavior, but Hoyt made this bed for himself.
My read is that "The Insider" actually seems to be praising Hoyt for spinning a "sympathetic" stance that has worked for him with his supporters/voters. The article alludes to the long-term benefit this spin may have against "attacks" from Golisano's posse as election time approaches. The insider insinuates that money - the root of all evil - and OMG money that may have been touched by Steve Pigeon - will be available for the candidate who runs against Hoyt.
Here we have Sam Hoyt, a legacy politician who has not been a trail blazer and has been exposed as a screwed up onboard a sinking ship. If anyone thinks they can do a better job than he, go for it. If he/she needs money to do this, I hear Responsible New York will help. What I find ironic is that Hoyt will cry over big money out to get him and that Steve Pigeon is the anti-christ behind it all, and Sam, ... he just loves Buffalo and never meant any harm.
How many years has he been in the Assembly?

Dumbest post ever! Thanks for the laugh PO!
I imagine it would be hard to make a go of it in the private-sector after 14-16 years of coddled Albany luxury.
This will make for an interesting new thread.

reads like water cooler politics to me.
Word is that Sam Hoyt will need all of the allies he can gather .........
Coddled Albany luxury? Have you been to Albany recently? Right across the street from the front steps of the Capitol Building are a row of boarded up, abandoned buildings. The downtown hub of Albany is in more need of help than Buffalo is or ever was.

I meant the lifestyle of the poliltician, not the physical neighborhood that surrounds the building that has the half-million dollar bathroom
S/he's sooper sekrit.
I think it's a gimmick to get more members

Same article could have been written six months ago, by anyone who watches the TV news on a semi-regular basis.
You wouldn't need to be much of an "Insider" to make any of these observations.
I was thinking the same thing

Well, that was my point, basically. So, who is the insider?
There you go, having a point again... it's really not necessary here!Well, that was my point, basically. So, who is the insider?
