6. He was/is an Al D'Amato stooge!!! That's who his mentor was

and then he was a doofus governor going nowhere fast in history until 9/11 Then he rode Rudy's noun, verb and 9/11 coat tails. (whatever that is) He did nothing extra ordinary at all. He was like the innocent bystander who over a little time became a hero just by being there at the time.

And seeing him since on the TeeVee, all he spouts are all the pro biz 'pug talking points verbatim and with no passion since he has none. He is not a Rockefeller repug, just a another jerk!!!
