The Legislature Blew It, but Smith Passed a Test

One thing I'd like to note, lest it get lost in the ruckus surrounding Shelly Silver and Joe Bruno's Comptroller stupidity: new Senate Minority Leader Malcolm Smith stood up on the right side here. As described in the mentioned before [1] that Senator Smith, as Majority Leader-in-Waiting, will be under great scrutiny from progressives.

So credit where credit is due: in the Comptroller battle, at least, Senator Smith sided with reform and with the voters of New York State. Kudos.
