The New York Connection. Tuesday, June 14, 2005. West Side Stadium: Dead or a Zombie? I heard that the owner of the Mets is thinking of raising the funding the West Side stadium on his own, and that though there are substantial legal obstacles, they aren't insurmountable. Posted by Helponaut @ 6:43 AM. Wednesday, June 08, 2005. Getting Things Done in NYC. The Neighborhood Retail Alliance offers a sense of the new model of getting things done.

The New York Connection. Wednesday, July 06, 2005. Let Nature Take Its Course. This morning's New York Times. Reminds us our neighborhoods need help. And that the Bloomberg Administration is unbearably out of touch with many of the city's neighborhoods most in need. A Times reporter followed up on the "Report Card on Parks". Which gave failing grades to many NYC Parks. He found crack-smoking prostitutes, drugs dealers, piles of trash and 13 year old homeless encampments. What did he say about that? We're...

The New York Connection: October 2005
http://newyorkconnection.blogspot.com/2005_10_01_archive.html
The New York Connection. Tuesday, October 18, 2005. Bloomberg Sings My Way. There's an interesting article. In the Times about Bloomberg's management style. I've heard a lot about this from various people. This article does a nice job of giving you a bit of insight into who this guy is and what he thinks about politics. While he is considered a 'liberal' by his friends, he's more just a rich guy who is personally generous and trusts his instincts unerringly. Mr Bloomberg, frustrated by the haggling, shou...

The New York Connection. Friday, May 27, 2005. In the Democratic New York City mayoral primary race - 16 weeks before the vote - Fernando Ferrer leads C. Virginia Fields, according to a new SurveyUSA poll. Ferrer gets 30%, Fields 23% with Gifford Miller in third place with 12% and Anthony Weiner fourth with 10%. Around who they can choose from.

The New York Connection: September 2005

The New York Connection. Wednesday, September 21, 2005. Tone Deaf Much, Schumer? On Schumer meeting (or rather, NOT meeting) with Cindy Sheehan. But guess who he does listen. Yesterday Charles Schumer and Dick Durbin attended a fundraiser for the Democratic Senate Campaign Committee. Schumer seemed to be in command. Gosh But surely he must not be suggesting we follow the disastrous strategy of 2002 and 2004, ignoring the war in Iraq in favor of health care and education, right? A troika of dumbosity!

The New York Connection: August 2005
http://newyorkconnection.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
The New York Connection. Monday, August 15, 2005. This is an audio recording. Of Senator Chuck Schumer talking about pushing Democrats out of various primaries, including Casey in Pennsylvania. Via Mark Crispin Miller. My sources tell me that Casey is running a horrible campaign, that Casey doesn't know where he stands on 'Federal issues', and that he doesn't want to attack Santorum for fear of being forced to come out with what he.
