How is the community supposed to have time time get the best for that position if they pull crap like this?

Anyone Lenny Lenihan endorses should be asked not to run. Look at the examples of "elected officials" we have gotten from his group.

So they just stalled the annoucement so that more qualified people couldn't run for that spot?

Myth

Democratic Party Chief Lenihan was yapping today about who the Dems will "run" for Tokarz NYS Congressional seat. How convenient that Tokarz does not announce he will NOT seek re election until today which is the deadline for submitting your petition to run - need 500 signatures plus a postmark by midnight tonight to get on the ballot. Pretty much that locks out any fresh faces not beholding to special interests. People complain about apathetic voters - it is hard to get excited when the only names on the ballot offer a choice of the lessor of two evils. This is further proof that the system is rigged against the taxpayer. Lenihan's "candidate" for Tokarz's seat is likely to be just a Tokarz clone in lock step with Sheldon Silver. Does anyone believe anymore that we have a government by the people & for the people and a tax system that requires representation and consent. The US should not be promoting "Democracy" around the world when we can no longer prove it exists here.
