deeply in the hole and with state revenue dropping sharply, there is no discussion of cutting the state’s bloated labor costs.

The WFP has no shortage of cash. Indeed the ACORN’s founder embezzled $1 Million dollars but ACORN elected not to prosecute him for fear of a court laying their financial books and records bare.

Because of the unique nature of New York State election law, candidates are allowed to be endorsed and appear on the voting machine ballot as the candidate of multiple Parties, winning the cumulative total of all votes cast for that candidate on multiple Party lines. Minor Parties such as the Conservative, Liberal and Right-to-Life Party have played significant roles in New York politics. The WFP is the tail that wags the New York Democratic Dog. The volunteer and club-house machinery of the Democratic Party of Al Smith, Franklin Roosevelt has to rely on a paid canvas of voters for their nominees.

The WFP gained greater respectability when Hillary Clinton and Eliot Spitzer each made their deal for the Party’s backing. The WFP uses all the classic ACORN voter fraud techniques: forged absentee ballots, rounding up “homeless” voters, fake voter enrollment and multiple voting by ringers. W henever busted for their illegal activities, ACORN claims it is all news to them and the act of a few misguided employees who have been fired; not likely.

Democrats with the WFP endorsement win primaries against those who don’t by dint of the WFP/ACORN canvass. The WFP demands fealty to a “soak the rich” economic agenda and minimum wage law “reforms” with an escalator clause the guarantees the future bankruptcy of small and middle size business in the Empire State. Governor Paterson himself caved to a demand by WFP that taxes be raised on upper incomes to solve the State’s budget deficit after
months of Paterson publicly opposing the idea for its guarantee of driving business, and capital, from the State.

Last Week John Liu, a New York City Councilman, won the Democratic City Primary run-off for Comptroller while City Councilman Bill de Blasio ended the frenetic political career of Mark Green in the Public Advocate’s primary. Both Liu and de Blasio cheated the Public Campaign Finance system in a WFP arrangement the New York Daily News called “a campaign finance Scam” by paying a for-profit campaign consulting firm, controlled by the Working Families Party, a discounted price for the expense of canvassers.

Liu will have trouble letting ACORN dip into the pension funds the New York City Comptroller controls; too much attention for the WFP’s activities in the run-off caused Liu to pledge he wouldn’t invest in anything ACORN rel ated, which could have not have made his puppet-masters back at ACORN headquarters in Brooklyn too happy.
