NEW YORK STATE: Richard Brodsky’s campaign for AG off to slow start

Richard Brodsky’s campaign for AG off to slow start.

The campaign of Richard Brodsky has gotten off to a slow start in terms of name recognition & funding from donors. His opponents for the Democratic Nomination Mark Green & Andrew Cuomo seem to be better funded & have better Name ID. Many are wondering if he should just run for his State Assembly Seat. His campaign has not gained traction. If he does get his feet on the ground. He can be the kind of Democratic who can take it right to Pirro.

Brodsky raised less money during the last half of 2005 than any of the six Democrats running for state attorney general, taking in roughly $301,875. He now has fewer dollars on hand to spend than at least three of his opponents, according to financial statements filed last week at the state Board of Elections.

Brodsky does not believe that dollars help you win. He believes you win in the battle of ideas. Brodsky needs to
bring initiatives to the table. That is also how get media coverage & recognition. Brodsky still has great potential in this race. He will be the dark horse & will surprise people. He could propel an upset in the primary.

The Green camp seems to be happy with Brodsky’s troubles. That could be that they are going for the same voter & looking at the same demographics.

Brodsky thinks that his campaign will have adequate funds to win. Brodsky also says his campaign will be a "grass-roots, issue-oriented" campaign. He compares his race to New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner.

Brodsky believes that his network of supporters, labor union endorsements and his record on issues around the state, including his opposition to the West Side stadium and investigations into state agencies like the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, will endear him to voters.

Brodsky at the end is the best candidate to slay the queen known as Jeanine Pirro. Due to the fact that Brodsky will take the fight to her & she will not have one moment’s peace.
