While Spinning on his Attempts to Run for President
No Follow Up on yesterday's Daily News Story about a mayoral aid involvement in the $700,000 paid to
Haggerty by the
Bloomberg campaign.
Indicted campaign aide John Haggerty points finger at Mayor Bloomberg's former deputy mayor
It is the best of times and worst of times for Deputy Mayor
Wolfson. While his attempt to make
Bloomberg a national candidate seems to be working as measured by the amount of press coverage the mayor is receiving, he has involved himself in the middle of the
Haggerty trial by his inconsistent comments in the press for how and why the Independence Party was by the
Bloomberg.
Why Bloomberg's Deputy Mayor Wolfson Will Have to Resign (True News)
“You know, it’s a kick to be invited by the president of the United States; I don’t care how
blasé you are,”
the mayor said, recalling his recent round of golf on Martha’s Vineyard with Barack Obama.

Bloomberg on Obama, a White House Bid and Bloggers
Bloomberg On bloggers: The
bloggers — you know, The New York Times, for better or worse, has some standards as to who they hire and how much experience you have to have. And then they have an editor who looks at the story and sees whether it’s fair and accurate and that sort of thing. And they have lawyers that make sure they don’t violate the law.
Bloggers don’t have any of that. And that also leads to some of the partisanship. *

Pay to Play Consultants Global Strategy Group and Comptroller DiNapoli
Finish the probe, Andrew A key part of the probe -- involving state Comptroller Tom
DiNapoli -- needs to be wrapped up . . . pronto. Specifically,
Cuomo is looking at a $15 million investment by the pension fund just weeks after
DiNapoli met with a private investment executive in a meeting arranged by a political consulting firm, Global Strategy
Group. In April, Global Strategy -- which also lacked required securities licenses -- agreed to pay $2 million to end the
AG's probe of
its role in the affair. (

are worried by Cuomo’s refusal to endorse his fellow Democrat, state Comptroller Tom
DiNapoli.
