The NY Times has a hilariously depressing feature about the perks State Senate Democrats have discovered ever since taking control from the Republicans. It's hilarious because there are quotes like “I don’t believe they ever gave us the password that shut down the waterfall to enter the cave leading into the studio" (from Senator Craig Johnson's spokesman Rich Azzopradi, referring to the Long Island TV studio facility for Republicans to film their videos). And it's depressing because they found a vehicle now dubbed the "Brunomobile"—"$50,000 specially outfitted GMC van, with six leather captain’s chairs (some swiveling), a navigation system, rearview camera and meeting table."
