Quote of the Day

October 6, 2008

"I am not supporting him, because he is not supporting the BCRO," Yudin said. "I simply said to him, and I stand by this, if elected officials feel they cannot support the BCRO, I cannot guarantee my support. He is a sitting assemblyman for 25 years, he has taken the position that he cannot give to the BCRO and I find that wrong, and I have warned him that is a position of mine."........

"You can't get blood from a stone,'' Rooney said, adding, "For him to make these threats is not the sign of a good leader."

-Charles Stile, on BCRO Chairman Bob Yudin's request that Assemblyman John Rooney give a significant part of his $16,000 campaign account to support county-wide candidates
