Politics on the Hudson Albany Watch blog:
Carl Paladino, the failed 2010 Republican gubernatorial candidate, endorsed Neil Di Carlo today in his GOP primary bid against Sen. Stephen Saland, R-Poughkeepsie.
... Like Paladino, Di Carlo is a conservative Republican, and both oppose abortion and same-sex marriage. Saland was one of four Republican senators to vote in favor of same-sex marriage last year.
Paladino doesn’t mention the same-sex marriage vote specifically, but said Di Carlo shares the values of the district and is a businessman “with an unwavering commitment to conservative Republican values.”
Paladino, the Buffalo businessman who lost to Cuomo during a troubled campaign, has vowed to back candidates this year for state Legislature and overthrow the Senate GOP leadership.

While I agree with Paladino's beliefs, I don't necessarily believe in the man himself. He has the tendency to speak before he thinks I believe his temper got him into a lot of trouble in the governatorial election, and that is why he lost by such a wide margin. I hope he can keep a civil tongue in this so he doesn't cost Di Carlo votes.
Seriously?? Excited about support from Carl Paladino? Not surprised by this at all from NOM - the guy is a total joke in Buffalo.....
Carl Paladino is a failed politician, who has ZERO relevance to NYS. He couldn't even win in his home town!
