In Case you Missed it…
Welcome to this week’s version of In Case you Missed It. This is the final week on the campaign. A week from tomorrow it will be Election day eve. WOW.
Meanwhile - RT hits a milestone. Seems like a couple of lifetimes. But enough about us.
Let’s get to it, shall we.
NY-29: Massa V Kuhl
The D&C endorsed Kuhl. Why? Well, the candidate described as having “encyclopedic on the issues” lost the endorsement to a candidate who provided “non-answer answers”. Massa responds.
We were tracking the DCCC / NRCC expenditures in Congressional races in WNY. The NRCC started spending money, So did the DCCC and here is the latest. Finally, it turns out that all WNY Dems are crushing their opponents in fundraising.
Meanwhile the DCCC mailed this piece, turns out Randy isn’t concerned with the environment as evidenced by this. Massa releases a new Ad.
Of course, Randy Kuhl does his Michelle Backman and says the Dems want to make America suffer for political points. Geez - Randy - We are segmenting NY into “real” and “fake” America now? Rahm Emmanuel weighs in and you can see the video of Randy telling you that Dems want to make America Suffer. The best of the bunch? Check out Airbare’s take down of Randy and commentary.
Finally, While Sarah Palin might see Russia, not Reality, from her house let’s hope the NRCC can see “the goners” from their House. Per the NRCC, Randy is one of the “goners“. This, of course, is no reason to let up the relentless pressure. That pressure needs to be relentless.
State Assembly SD-134 - Garretson vs Reilich
We interviewed Dave Garretson. We provided this video (have a look)
County Clerk: Hasman v Dinolfo
The D&C missed the boat with this endorsement. City News does too. But Hasman responds.
This fan video surfaced. We also did two video clips with Tom Hasman. This one where he shares his vision and this one where he gives an update about the Social Security numbers posted on the Web by Cheryl Dinolfo’s office.
Of course, we remind everyone what a loyal soldier Cheryl Dinolfo is and the circumstances that lead her to run for County Legislature.
Finally, Dinolfo tags the wrong guy with a crime.
SD-56 Dollinger v Robach
We posted some video of the Women for Dollinger event. These clips included both Congresswomen Louise Slaughter and candidate Rick Dollinger speaking.
Short takes
Let’s start with this. Monroe County Legislator Anthony “Daniele is just one more Republican shill, plain and simple”
Lawn signs are disappearing. This post highlights some nastiness in the SD-56th. There is simply no place - on either side - for this nonsense.
Voter registration records are beaten.
NYSUT cut a deal and supports incumbents in Albany.
Record Obama fund raising frees up DNC funds for State races.
Nachbar gets an endorsement.
Speaking of endorsements. The NY29th and Monroe County Clerk were addressed above but check out the D&C endorsement of Elma Bellini. Doesn’t inspire confidence. Makes you wonder how they will choose between McCain and Obama because as btp reflects on their non-endorsements in the State Legislature races seems they are playing it safe.
Jon Powers is scheduled to campaign with Alice Kryzan.
btp takes to his neighbors. Celebrities talk to us. The message - get involved.
Then there was this big picture post about taxes. Things to think about November 5th.
Finally, desperation is dangerous and bad. It is as bad as greed.
See you next week!

Actually StLo7, if you double-checked the numbers, or read the WaterBuffaloPress, you would notice that the so-called “record” was not a record at all.
