ALBANY—New York State Conservative Party chair Mike Long is disgusted.
“I think I have a real problem with both sides of the aisle with what they did. It cost the taxpayers $5 million for the circus and shenanigans that went on,” said Long, the chairman of the State Conservative Party. “It wasn’t about trying to cap property taxes; it was just a pure bare-bones power struggle. It’s going to raise questions when we look at endorsements next year—we have an obligation to do that to the taxpayers of New York State.”
I asked if he was ready to mount a “throw the bums out” campaign, which has been mumbled by some but which currently lacks the organization or money to get moving.
