Paladino lost and is finished in politics. He has nothing to lose in stiffing people, especially the pricey help these campaigns attract, unless a court says different.

A truly dreadful candidate. Hard to believe that so many folks actually thought this guy could be a serious candidate for Governor of NY.

He is a footnote now, not more.

Dreadful is the perfect word. He could not have been a worse representative for the tea party, and his promoters should hang their heads.

Baited with his fat purse, they mistook his bluster for sagacity and his arrogance for ability. They refused to listen to dissent, slapping down anyone who said the emperor had no clothes. Now he's just a bad example for the enemies of the tea party movement to point to and gloat.

Despite his banana republic campaign, some of my best friends voted for him. For lack of a better candidate, I voted for Ronald Reagan.
