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.
