Start spreading the news....
Inspiration by Frank.
A lot has been said in the news about the problems the Democratic Party (and specifically the Kerry campaign) have had with the mayor of Boston in the lead up to the Democratic National Convention.
Apparently it's not going so smoothly for the GOP either.
Michael Bloomberg (Mayor of New York) and the GOP are at odds with some of the nuts and bolts of the convention. Bloomberg is angry with the Republicans in Washington for not doing enough to fund New York City's homeland security issues. Bloomberg has apparently "played ball" with the folks at the national level..only to feel stabbed in the back in return.
Bloomberg is a former Democrat who switched party affiliations a few months before he ran for Mayor of New York.
Given the horror that the city of New York endured on 9/11, one would think the GOP would be smart enough to make sure that they had what they need. Apparently not. Given that the GOP is going to be holding their convention in this very Democratic city already, the GOP are digging themselves in an even larger hole with Bloomberg.
