VOTERS NEED A VOICE

Written by admin on January 7, 2009. Posted in Uncategorized

To the Editor: The insightful “Paterson in the Hot Seat” (The Capitol Connection, Dec. 18) makes me wonder if Democrats have taken real democracy away from the voters and returned it to Albany’s smoke-filled backrooms.

Written by admin on January 7, 2009. Posted in Uncategorized

Twice, members of the Hunter College High School boys’ basketball team said “all the way” when talking about their hopes for the current season. First assistant coach John Valinotti used the phrase, and then junior captain Len Chenfeld did the same a few minutes later. Even for a good team, it was a bit presumptive.
