Lanza's support of Bloomberg is mystifying and disappointing

I recently wrote to state Sen. Andrew Lanza expressing my disappointment on how he acted as spokesperson endorsing Teflon Mayor Michael Bloomberg for a Republican slot on the mayoral ballot.

Bloomberg, in my opinion, is a selfish, self-centered individual who is a political party all to himself.

This arrogant, pompous man is totally responsible for huge tax increases during his tenure. He has raised every possible tax, fee, penalties, fines, etc. affecting the middle class more than ever.

He is out of touch with everyone but the wealthy. His recent disrespect to a disabled news reporter, showed the true side of our mayor.

Bloomberg's daily onslaught of political ads, ad nauseam, touting his "economic plan" is a farce! Where was this economic plan before our economic woes?

Why not implement this plan immediately?
