Lazio Picks Up Orange County Endorsement

October
28

Among the potential Republican candidates for governor next year, Erie County Executive Chris Collins is looking to regroup after comparing Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver to Adolf Hitler and an Antichrist, and former Mayor Rudy Giuliani won’t say whether he will run until after next week’s election.

In the meantime, GOP candidate Rick Lazio is out picking up endorsements. After getting the endorsement in his home Suffolk County, the former congressman today announced the backing of Orange County Republican Chairman Bill DeProspo.

Here’s DeProspo’s statement:

“I am supporting Rick Lazio for Governor of New York because I believe he is the right candidate with the new ideas to turn New York state around. We need a candidate for Governor with a record of accomplishment and Rick Lazio is that candidate.

As a Congressman, he oversaw some of the most sweeping federal housing reforms in our lifetime, and helped author the first balanced budget in a generation. His proposal for a hard property tax cap will help ease the burden on working families here in Orange County and his plan to grow jobs is what the New York  needs. Most importantly, New York desperately needs new leadership, and that’s why I’m supporting the one candidate who has promised to bring sweeping change to our Government. I wholeheartedly offer him my endorsement.”

    well i believe that rick lazio is the wrong candidate
    for governor..he demonstrated in his doomed run against
    hillary that he doesn’t have the instincts, the gravitas
    or the basic knowlege to run for ceo of new york

    Laziostein is on a role picking up another endorsement, his “CREATORS” Arthur Finkelstein & Co are happy campers.

    It has taken Arthur Finkelstein & Co 9 years to remake Laziostein, he is new and improved, he can now say more than three words before he has to call Arthur Finkelstein & Co.

    In fact he has ideas like “Unicameral Legislature” and he wont make the same debate error, only thing it was no error, Arthur Finkelstein & Co told him to go over to Hillary Soprano’s side.

    Folks we need to send Arthur Finkelstein & Co packing once and for all, he is the one responsible for the ruin of NYS and the NYGOP, he ran this state thru Patakistein and was telling everyone that Patakistein would win IOWA and the Whitehouse in 2008.

    Jeffrey, I guess you believe in the tooth fairy ????

    Arthur Finkelstein & Co is his “BRAIN” then and now, he created Laziostein, and LAziostein does not speak until he is told what to say.
