The Times is not known to endorse minority candidates especially when they are running against Caucasian candidates, are they? And yet they spoke highly of CM Monserrate, didn't they ("City Councilman Hiram Monserrate, the challenger, is a former policeman who has become an energetic force in the Hispanic community. And whatever happens in this race, Mr. Monserrate looks like a rising star in New York politics. Voters could not go wrong, whatever lever they pull.")) ? As to the Citizen's Union... sometimes they seem to be asleep at the wheel... they were down on Giff for his $1,500,000 mail blitz paid for with City funds and yet they gave Sabini a pass for doing essentially the same thing and maybe even more on a per person basis... this being a State Senate Race perhaps they dozed off here... I notice you took a pass on commenting on the items listed above where Monserrate did good things for the people and acted in a forceful and productive way for his constituents and the regular working class people he stands up for. And you also passed on his being the Chairman of the Black Latino and Asian Caucus... cat got your tongue?
