Sharpton has a long history of being a spoiler in local state elections. Apparently, he wants to be courted and consulted before you make a political move that concerns the minority community. Basically he wants to be the Political boss of minorities.
He actively worked against Green in the last election, throwing the vote to Bloomberg (another republican) by basically calling Green a racist.
And he's at it again. This is from today's Note:
"Just three days after Gore's endorsement, the New York Times ran a story titled, "Sharpton's Support Slips Despite National Attention" detailing his loss of support in New York. Sharpton issued a number of threats last week both to local officials who he believes have abandoned him and to Howard Dean. Sharpton released a statement asking "Will the real Howard Dean please stand up?" and shortly thereafter made virtually unnoticed threats to withhold votes with his political machine should Dean be the nominee."
Again, if Sharpton isn't in control, he tries to destroy the candidacy of others. He vows to work against the democrats, and he follows through on it. That's why, as funny as he is, he needs to go and go soon.
What can be done about him?
