Pataki?? isn't he the one that blamed Ontario for the power failure back in the summer of '03? Do you think he's got good information or the balls?

I don't recall who stated who was responsible for the blackout in '03. I do recall seeing something on Discory Channel or National Geographic that sourced it north of the Canadian border as the origins.
As far as Pataki having the stones, no he's never had the stones. Would Cuomo? (edited for wrong name)
As far as getting public sympathy for the unions, you strike before Christmas when people are already stretched thin for money and you make them have to spend extra money taking cabs or extra time walking/biking.
There's also lots of other unions watching this, the police, teachers, sanitation, etc. because they are going to see just how far they can or cannot go in the future or if they didn't go far enough in the past.
I say bankrupt the union. They played their hand as best as they saw it. You bluff and if they lose, they lose. Period.
