Candidates Forum Redux

If you missed the Assembly Candidates Forum on Tuesday, featuring Assemblymember Didi Barrett and her challenger, Sam Hodge, the event can now be viewed on YouTube.

  1. Sam's lighting says "hostage situation," but his script is far left "National Dem Politics 101" cliches and hashtags. Has WFP endorsed him yet?

    Where is the plan to lower taxes Sam?

    Also taking inspiration from California government (lol) and Mitt Romney (of course without name-checking Romney but assigning his achievements to unnamed MA Dems)... classic Sam Hodge.

    Sam dodged a perfect opportunity to be bi-partisan faster than a D.C. lobbyist running away from a bill that doesn't have a 500-page tax loophole in it for a billionaire.

    Sam's high/lowlight: defaulting to the Trump defense, like a Staples red button "that was easy", but instead his yells "Trump!" to explain away his endorsement flip-flop in a hyper local NY-only election... is a level of gymnastics that deserves a medal.

    At least the Dems now have a talented and eloquent new CCDC leader who can run a good Zoom panel.

    Imagine if she ran the referendum push last year and not Hodge...
