My Political Commentary on TV this weekend

For those fellow New Yorkers who are interested in my comments regarding the New York State budget that was just passed by the State Legislature and our exciting new Governor, Eliot Spitzer, I hope that you will watch my half-hour TV appearance on "Newsmakers", which airs on News 12. Airing on both Saturday and Sunday, I am conversing with hosts Janine Rose and Brian Conybeare, and debating with Republican strategist Michael Edelman.

Governor Spitzer, who was elected in a landslide victory following an extremely successful term as New York State Attorney General, has seen his first budget pass on schedule. Known as the "sheriff of Wall Street" following his policing of the financial industry and other segments of the business world, Spitzer is attempting to curb waste in governmental spending, as well as addressing the need for greater ethics in Albany. Key issues in our News 12 discussion include rising property taxes, increased school aid, Medicaid expenses, and the ongoing struggle between a Republican State Senate and a Democratic State Assembly.

We also discuss the Presidential campaigns of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Rudy Giuliani and John McCain.

It is too bad that his political career suffered a landslide as a result of him cheating on his wife multiple times with prostitute(s).
