I understand he has to placate the powers that be... in this case the corrupt NYS DEM establishment.... but in cases like pseudo-dems like Avella and Jeffrey Klein he could have simply remained silent or done a perfunctory endorsement.

Running around telling everyone how wonderful he thinks these creeps are makes him look like an idiot... and a fraud.
