Klein Destroys Opponent in Fundraising


Here is a posting by Celeste Katz over at the Daily News about how State Senator Jeff Klein has a war chest of $1.3 million, while his opponent, Frank Vernuccio, has about $3000 to spend. Not sure what 3k can do for you in politics so Mr. Vernuccio better buy a good pair of sneakers for about 100 bucks and start knocking on doors. Klein is about to release a commercial, which you can preview at the posting above. Wise of Klein to take nothing for granted since there is little love out there for state Senators these days.

  1. Funny Thought of the Day: Bronx Dem Chair Dinowitz HATES Jeff Klein. Unfortunately, for Dinowitz, however, Klein just keep getting more and more powerful. For example, he leapfrogged over Dinowitz from the Assembly into the Senate (Dinowitz had endorsed Klein’s Republican opponent Steve Kaufman). Klein then skillfully ascended into the Senate leadership, while Dinowitz is stuck in the Assembly chairing the Committee on Aging.

  4. Celeste Katz forgot to mention the $2,500 that State Senator Jeffrey Klein decided to give back to Detroit developer Michael Malik.

  5. That's a great commercial for Jeffrey Klein. It bet all the other Bronx politicians are green with envy. Maybe it's time for Sen. Klein to consider running for something on the federal level?

  6. Unlike Dinowitz, Klein isn't afraid to ruffle a feather or two.

  7. Dinowitz will just keep on aging with Aging-all the old ladies love him. But if he got a tan, he too join that illustrious body.

  8. Jeff Klein is one of the most skilled politicians in the state, and his fund-raising prowess makes him an increadible asset to New York Democrats.

  10. That senator takes a nice photo.

    Not only is he doing a masterly job in a state legislature that's full of crap, he's also able to raise oodles of money in the midst of a major economic recession. And he looks damn dapper doing it.

  12. I prefer him like this, more relaxed and with less of a tan.

    A few years ago, he must have been spending too much time in Florida. For a while, I was starting to think that he was not human, but actually made entirely of cured meats.

  13. Why are there always such nasty comments on here? I think Mr. Klein looks lovely (and always does).
