Lowey “feeling great”
U.S. Rep. Nita Lowey, energetic and seemingly humbled by the attention her fainting spell earned her earlier this month, reassured reporters today that she was back to normal.
Lowey, who was in Congers to call for an end to the freeze of medical benefits on Priority Group 8 veterans, attributed her fall at a Clinton rally to a combination of being on her feet for several hours straight after eating bad airport food and not drinking enough.
“I feel great,” she said. “I’m rip-roaring and I’m going back to Washington on Monday.”
Lowey was also planning a stop this afternoon in West Haverstraw to meet with senior citizens and check the progress of federally-funded sidewalk project on Eakman Drive.

She’s not drinking enough? Start hanging more with Ted Kennedy. That should clear that problem up.
I’ve put up a photo and the audio of Lowey’s remarks on the At Ease! blog – http://veterans.lohudblogs.com.
”...Bad airport food!” Is it totally IMPOSSIBLE for a politician to tell the truth about ANYTHING? Anything at all?
I HEAR THAT NICK SPANO IF HE DOESN’T TRY TO RE CAPTURE HIS OLD SEAT IS INTERESTED IN RUNNING FOR THIS SEAT. WILL IT BE AGAINST LOWEY OR WILL SHE STEP DOWN. SHE NEVER HAS HAD A RACE.
