We have before us an ordeal of the most grievous kind. We have before us many, many long months of struggle and of suffering.
You ask, what is our policy? I say it is to wage war by land, sea, and air. War with all our might and with all the strength God can give us, to wage war against a monstrous tyranny never surpassed in the dark and lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is our policy.
You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs - Victory in spite of all terrors - Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival.
Is Connor a Progressive/Reformer? It depends on his audience.
As I understand it, both Squadron and Connor were asked at the CODA endorsement meeting whether there were housing projects in the smaller BROOKLYN side of the district. They both got the answer wrong. Squadron couldn't remember any. Connor responded that there were TWO. There artually are THREE. I don't understand why such an issue would be held against Squadron, considering that he hasn't represented the district and is making his first race, but what's Connor's excuse for getting it wrong?
I"ve lived in Connor's district for the past 20+ years, and I'm amazed
at how well he convinces the progressives/reformsers that he's with them and the conservative/Democratic machine that he's with them. Who is the REAL Marty Connor?
In my view, Connor is part of the problem with the way Albany operates
(remember his complicity in the repeal of the commuter tax?) and it's time to get someone new to represent us.
