Wow, Peekaboo, with that kind of wishful thinking maybe the Mets can actually win the world series. Degnan will lose by about 80-90 points, if he’s lucky.

Seriously though, CRCM scheduled that debate AFTER Governor Paterson announced the emergency session, they should have known that Ball would not be able to attend. He was live on television on the Assembly floor during the debate, I don’t how you could be surprised.

CRCM said that Ball informed them three weeks in advance that he might not make it, which is why the moved the time from 7:30 to 8:30. He did not “wait till the last minute” like John Degnan did in Somers.

“Iâ€™m so sick of hearing”

That’s okay. I am sick of hearing Ball’s lies. We are even. But I will be ahead when John crushes Ball and shows him to the the ineffective ring-master from Barnum and Bailey.

Why did Ball wait until the last minute to call the CRCM and tell them he was a no show? He must have known he would be in Albany when he arranged the latest circus act with the bus.

So why did he wait to insult the people who attended to see him perform his act?

One point of fact; there are more important things in the public arena than Ball’s bullcrap. When will he learn?

I’m so sick of hearing about Degnan like he is a credible candidate. He has the endorsement of the Democrats in a Republican gerrymander district. Oh, that’s right, he’s got the Working Families Line too. They have 50 less voters in the 99th then the Green Party, so I’m sure that will be very helpful. Ball has three lines, R/C/I, this will not be close, everyone knows that Ball is going to win big and its a disservice to us to pretend its close when there is more important political news that should be covered (for instance Carmine DiBattista saying he had a “no-show” $264,000 with the CSEA on TV!)

What…no mention of Greg Ball? He has been in all the stories about the Tax Cap stuff.
Guess he is a little fish in the big political pond in Albany !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
From all the stories, a person may think that Little Fish Ball is running Albany and in control !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Guess the Little Fish Ball still needs to wear his swimmies.
