When is Paladino going to explain why he gave thousands to Hillary

[jamesmadison]

I am tired of listening to Paladino dodge the issue. He needs to explain why he has given thousands to Hillary and Chuck Shumer, two of the biggest liberals in DC.

[WNYresident]

Did anyone related to Cuomo ever donate to Hillary?

Considering it is his own party, probably. Paladino wants to go around proclaiming himself as an outsider, when he is about as big an insider as there is.

[WNYresident]

But he's our insider. Ever hear about the "trickle down" effect? Well lets say Carl is elected. Any honest graft he can take for himself will trickle down through WNY. Same "trickle" bull**** the non-government laborer/non-government business owner is told by NYS politicians when they are deep into our pockets for their ideas...

How about starting a new thread seeing you don't believe Carl Paladino is the guy and support who you believe is.

Lesson #23 from the political hand book. If your guy has crap to run on and is not qualified just continually bash who they are running against.

Trickle down is a senseless idea that somehow, welfare to the rich benefit the poor.

The real world does not work that way. Trickle down is a pipe dream.

What makes you think you are owed anything? If you're a supporter, go down and ask him. If you're not a supporter, it's REALLY none of your business and you probably wouldn't believe his answer unless it jibed with your preconceived conclusion anyway.

I'd be more curious had he donated to McCain and Obama as well.
Maybe he likes her stance on stem cell research or her no vote to extend the Andean trade agreement, or maybe he writes all the checks and his wife asked him to donate on her behalf, or....

Sending a campaign contribution does not automatically mean total agreement on all issues. If you have found candidates that you agree with 100% on everything, congratulations to you, you are in the minority.

If by welfare you mean tax deductions, then I'm not so sure I agree. Starting and expanding companies is not the only way to create or maintain jobs. Less disposable income often means less money spent on all those things entrepreneurs base their businesses on.

He could donate to Mickey Mouse, he still gets my vote,,A donation does not the candidate make.. nor a frickin email.. removing toll barriers means something.

the alternative to him sucks worse than anything, and what we have DOESN"T WORK.

Ps. Maybe NY could stop raping us for a change,, The problem is NOT Paladino

[DomesticatedFeminist]

Because like many sleazy people and corporations he makes sure to take care off all the candidates that will most likly win.

Tax cuts for the wealthy have been shown time and time again to be a negative impact on the economy, and the country as a whole.

Or, do you still think Reaganomics actually worked?

Lots of things have been shown "statistically", but the truth is, numbers CAN and often DO lie. It all depends on who is massaging them.

Did you view the list of contributions? I'm thinking you maybe didn't or you probably wouldn't have said that

[Bioguy231]

You know, it is entirely possible that Carl's dislike of Lazio goes back a ways and that's why he donated to Hillary.

he donated to Lazio in the lazio/clinton election

[Bioguy231]

Did he donate equally to Hillary and Lazio?
