Printed in the Lynbrook Herald 10/29 Dear Editor: In its endorsement of Carolyn McCarthy the HERALD says that a challenger must have a plan and an implementation strategy and convince the voters that he will do a better job.

Endorsement of McCarthy is 'Laughable'--Letter to the Editor by Christian Browne

2010-10-23T10:17:00.001-04:00

Endorsement of McCarthy is ‘laughable’ With all due respect to my friends at the Herald, your endorsement last week of Carolyn McCarthy for Congress is simply laughable. You laud her because she “knows how things work in the House of Representatives” and because she has touched such political third rails as “childhood obesity” and “cyber-bullying.” Yet you mention not at all the only relevant

Well it seems that the ever elusive and indeed reclusive Representative from the 4th CD has actually decided to allow the voters some idea of why she is running for an 8th term. The only problem is, she can't seem to make up her mind as to what we want to hear this time around. So very odd that she is not telling us how wonderful her health care disaster is, or how much we are going to enjoy
