Whoa. Ravitch *Clobbers* Cuomo and DEMS; Will Back Greens Instead

[Smarmie Doofus]

>>> am casting a protest vote for the first time in my life. I am voting for the candidates of the Green Party, Howie Hawkins and Brian Jones. I voted for Zephyr Teachout in the Democratic primary for three reasons: her position on education, on public integrity, and on the environment. And these are the reasons I will cast my ballot in November for the Green Party.

I like their platform on the issues that matter most to me. I oppose hydrofracking ( yes, there was a recent study that said that hydrofracking did not cause pollution, but the faulty wells dug during the process of fracking caused pollution; forgive me for saying that is a distinction without a difference).

Cast your vote as you choose. This is my choice.>>>>

1. No thanks. nt

3. And who is the GOP running?

4. Rob Astorino, Westchester County Executive, who is trailing by 25 pts....

... and by tens of millions of dollars. It seems traditionally GOP BIG MONEY has switched sides for this one.

Apparently they expect continued favorable handling by Quid Pro Cuomo.

And why wouldn't they?

2. Green for victory!

5. I'm still hoping Jill Stein switches...

and runs on a ticket with Al Franken.

Just think of the bumper stickers.

6. Okay...took me a minute, but pretty funny. nt

7. Ravitch undercut herself by not having the weight and money of her PAC

behind the endorsement.

I mean, if she really thinks the Greens are viable, then why not the PAC endorsement.
