GOP Tries to Pave Way for Vito Fossella to Run Again

Insanity! Even though the Republican nominee for Vito Fossella's congressional seat is Robert Straniere, the Manhattan GOP nominated Straniere to a State Supreme Court judgeship. Which, as the Advance suggests, could help baby-daddy, DWI arrestee Fossella "to re-enter the race by allowing Straniere to get off the GOP congressional line." However, Straniere (who is not popular among Republicans) is adamant about running for Congress, " I'm not getting off the line for nobody, no way, no how. I am totally committed to this race. I'm not going to do anything but run for Congress... I don't want to be a judge." Stay tuned.
