Recchia says Scott Stringer won't be 'anointed' comptroller

1:56 pm Nov. 20, 2012

Josh Robin catches some early jabs in the New York City comptroller race, where Councilman Domenic Recchia said newly announced candidate Scott Stringer won't be "anointed" to the position.

Stringer announced on Sunday night that he won't be running to succeed Mayor Bloomberg, and will instead enter the race for comptroller, which already included Recchia and Councilman Dan Garodnick as potential candidates.

Recchia criticized the timing of Stringer's announcement that he would enter the race, noting many people in Recchia's district are still recovering from Hurricane Sandy. 

Stringer, who volunteered with Recchia recently, who declined to comment on-camera according to the report, seized on Recchia's remarks and said "It's not the time for political attacks."

Garodnick, who also hails from Manhattan, took the high road, talking about his own "positive vision" for the city.

The battle for "ALL" the spots on the ticket are going to be down and dirty.

It will make for great Blogging and commenting

I just can't wait to add my "two sense" and give out "Happy Socks" to all those who will need to be "Happy" before and after.

In fact we have already begun making people "HAPPY" with "HAPPY SOCKS"

On Monday at the Monday Meeting we gave out "HAPPY SOCKS" to

Steve Forbes
Grover Norquist
John Fund.

It the coming days, weeks, months we will be giving out "HAPPY SOCKS"

Once your feet are Happy your whole body becomes Happy and we need a lot of "HAPPINESS" in politics, Government, and "THE MEDIA"

In fact we plan to send a pair to Bill O'Reilly he is very unhappy since the Washington Post Editorial.

I will tell Bill to send them "HAPPY SOCKS" and maybe they will become "HAPPY" about Bills Comments.
