The Brooklyn Paper: Dems to Vito: You’re going down … this time!
The Brooklyn Paper: Dems to Vito: You’re going down … this time!
The Democratic Party — which failed to do even basic behind-the-scenes work for its candidate in 2006 — now says it will go after Rep. Vito Fossella (R–Bay Ridge) with a vengeance in 2008.
The powerful Democratic Congressional Committee — or the “D triple C,” as it’s known in politico parlance — announced via its blog that the city’s only Republican congressman has been targeted for elimination in the next election.
“We will aggressively work in districts targeting ethically challenged incumbents like … Vito Fossella,” read the announcement posted on the Stakeholder, the DCCC’s blog.

Not sure my comment posted last time (sometimes I hate Blogger). If it did, I guess you can delete this one.
Anyway, yeah - it's about time. The Dems screwed that seat up last cycle - if they could take out Sweeney and Sue Kelly, they could put the whammy on Vito.
Steve Harrison did great work with zero party support. But better late than never, I guess.
