Mayor Mike is spending big to help Corey Booker win a special election in New Jersey:
“… As his allies move to shore up what was supposed to be a painless path to Congress, the biggest and wealthiest of them, Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, will start spending more than $1 million on Monday to broadcast television commercials on Mr. Booker’s behalf, a vast sum to pour into a single candidacy …”
That’s more than the $350,000 he put into the Colorado recall, but the NYC media market is also much more expensive.
Despite Booker’s involvement with MAIG and NRA’s endorsement of opponent Steve Lonegan, the ads don’t focus on guns:
“… The advertisement focuses on Booker’s primary message: that he is a pragmatic leaders who can get things done. “As mayor, he brought together Republicans, the private sector and community leaders,” says the spot, which describes Booker as “a leader to put progress ahead of partisanship …”
Bloomberg needs to keep his politics to himself! The rest of us who live in upstate NY are suffering because all of our laws are made to accommodate NYC. Enough already, we are not part of NYC!
That should be the kiss of death.
WOW I’m shocked
I’m surprised anyone wants his help after Colorado. Booker would do well to distance himself from the Clown Prince.
I know nothing about Booker. But if Bloomberg is for him, I’m against him!
Booker’s lead fell from 70% to now 6% and next he’ll play the dual card of gay black.
Booker,
Fooker,
Fuck You, Booker!
Funny thing is, Booker’s the only MAIG member i like…but he’s not on our side. Sux.
That’s because he’s not a total jerk like many of the other MAIGs are.
