After many years of scandal, Congressman Dan Maffei’s political mentor, Harlem Congressman Charlie Rangel, has abandoned his post as Chairman of the House Ways & Means Committee. Across the country, Democrats who received donations or fundraising assistance from Congressman Rangel are giving the money to charities, including the Congressman from the 24th District, Mike Arcuri. Congressman Eric Massa of the 29th District is facing calls from Republican challenger Tom Reed to rid himself of Rangel’s donated cash. So far, Dan Maffei, of the 25th District, has not indicated what he will be doing with the “dirty money” from his disgraced former boss, and though Arcuri was ahead of the curve calling for Rangel to step down, Maffei continues to be silent on the issue.
Who remembers this gem of a commercial from Republican Dale Sweetland’s failed run against Maffei in 2008?
