The trouble is that rules reform (which Robach will certainly oppose) doesn't catch voters' attention.

He is the commensurate snake-oil politican, he gives us little gifts, which in the end we already paid for, while working against our real needs in Albany. He shows up everywhere, glad hands us, tells us he loves us, says nothing of substance, and does nothing to help us in a meaningful way. He can keep his mall health fare, give us real health care. Joe, keep your pitance for school computers, give us real school aid,. Keep your mailers telling us how you support women, and give us the right to make our own medical decisions. Keep your tax breaks for corporations and give us in the middle class real relief. There is a difference with Robach.

If a Republican used the same text in a campaign mailer against a Democrat with the same votes, would you write "bravo"?
