Blakeman campaign announcement

Republican Bruce Blakeman officially announced his candidacy for Senate against incumbent Kirsten Gillibrand.  Other than the fact that he ran for Comptroller back in ’98, what do we know about him?

“… Blakeman made no mention in his 20-minute speech of his positions on hot-button issues like abortion, gun control, immigration reform or gay marriage, although he did voice opposition to Obama on health care reform and national security …”

Pretty much nothing.  No campaign website yet, but here is his bio at the law firm where he is a partner.
