T: Is for Time for a change?


Comptroller William Thompson is vastly outspent on his NYC mayoral campaign by billionaire opponent Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a Quinnipiac University poll released yestersday showed that Thompson, the top Democratic challenger, now trails Bloomberg, an Independent, 47 percent to 37 percent among New York voters, the poll showed. The 10-point gap is less than half of Bloomberg's 54 percent to 32 percent lead since June 16th. Bloomberg, of course, dismissed the poll at an unrelated event in Manhattan. I guess that is your reaction when you have spent $36 million and your opponent has only spent $2.3. I'm sure Bloomberg, has more to spend considering he spent $85 million in 2005. Will the issues actually come into play? There is a lot at stake here. Or maybe Robert Burck, aka the Naked Cowboy, who might show Mayor Michael Bloomberg the way out. He is the #1 tourist attraction and is serous about running. Check out the Times Square Chronicle on August 12th for an exclusive interview. All I know is New Yorkers need to research all the F.A.C.T.S.
