The Village Voice’s Powerless Politicians
The only thing I found interesting about the list — which isn’t at all serious or even logical — is that it did not include embattled City Comptroller John Liu.
The list, written by Steven Thraser (#50), did include a number of politicos:
#8-Public Advocate Bill De Blasio
#16-Former public advocate Mark Green
#17-State Senator Ruben Diaz Sr.
#18-Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr.
#20-Former NYC Schools Chancellor Cathie Black
#21-Former NYC Schools Chancellor Joel Klein
#25-Manhattan Borough President Scott Stringer
#54-Republican Rep. Michael Grimm
#55-Former NYC Comptroller Bill Thompson
#57-Empire State Pride Agenda
#59-Former Rep. Anthony Weiner
#60-Former governor Eliot Spitzer
#61-Former governor David Paterson
#64-Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz
#66-Staten Island Tea Party leader Frank Santarpia
#83-Jimmy McMillan
#88-Anyone who voted for term limits
#93-Former NYC Transportation Commissioner Iris Weinshall
