We didn’t know there was so much anti-Yassky sentiment out there when we wrote a post about our disillusionment with the city councilman from the 33rd District last week. Well, to be fair, we don’t know that there’s a lot of anti-Yassky sentiment–but at least one person cares enough about it to have started an entire website and blog devoted to derailing the pol’s Congressional aspirations. One link on the new site is to a post on the Daily Gotham blog about how the very fact that Yassky is white makes him a non-starter as a replacement for Congressman Owens. We’d like to think that’s not true. Are we just being naive?
