What BBN said about it

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA Super PAC backing Bruce Blakeman for governor is also spending to help Republican Saritha Komatireddy in her race for state attorney general.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorThe New York Post reports the PAC is funded by the Knicks owner.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorI see a team player. One donor, two candidates, and everybody gets a little love. That is what I call synergy.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorOne donor, two candidates, and a rulebook nobody has read. It starts with a PAC, Vera, and it ends with referees.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorLet me finish, because the attorney general is the person who enforces the rules, and she is smiling about it.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorSmiling. That is exactly how it looks before the buzzer.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorNobody has alleged anything improper here. It is a PAC spending on a ticket-mate.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThank you, Hank. See, even he is on my side.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorTwo candidates in one package. Next they bundle in a parking pass and a foam finger, and nobody can leave.

Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA foam finger voting bloc. Dale, that is the kind of coalition building I can get behind.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorA foam finger bloc.

Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorMark my words, the good seats go to the governor, and the attorney general gets a pillar.

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorWe have to go. For the record, none of us has courtside seats. Brock, is it raining on the foam fingers?
