Fossella ruined his family, career and now his own Republican party

via the Advance;


Voting in favor of Straniere on the committee were Anthony Xanthakis, a 2006 party candidate for Assembly; top Fossella staffer Sherry Diamond; Fossella's sister, Lori Siciliani, and attorney Thomas Sipp.

"The committee to fill vacancies was loaded with Vito's people so this is the final blow delivered by the congressman," said one longtime Republican. "I guess he didn't want to go down alone on the ship, so he decided to take the whole party with him."

If the national party would have supported Harrison in 06 the way they are supporting McMahon now, we would have been spared Fossella's scandals. Harrison did better than all other Dems since the Molinaris took over without funding. It would be logical to assume that if someone does better than anyone before without money, that you give them another chance with money. The DCCC should have told Recchia to go back to Coney Island and immediately embraced Harrison after he announced last year.
