Tsunami

It certainly does not look as if there will be any meaningful reform of the sick and idiotic way that New York governs itself. The three men in a room – Pataki, Bruno and Silver are going to continue their same dance of the seven veils. We will have a late state budget and the ship of state will continue to lurch along.

I wonder if anyone has the courage to actually challenge how business is done and to move us toward some of the reforms called for by the Brennan see: http://www.brennancenter.org/programs/downloads/albanyreform_finalreport_appendixa.pdf

Well so it goes -- happy new year!
