Why I Endorse a Republican for Weiner's Seat
I am here this morning to suggest that the contested race in New York's 9th Congressional District be turned into a referendum that will allow the voters of this district, the largest Jewish district in the country, to register a protest against the positions of President Barack Obama and the Republican leadership on a number of key issues.President Obama, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party have failed the American public in several ways. Two issues come readily to mind.
One is jobs. Not a single law that would provide jobs in our country has been adopted. We are now suffering from a 9.2 percent unemployment rate. Both parties have failed miserably to address this vitally important issue.
