Tony Castro (DA candidate- Westchester) makes the DFA list !!
http://www.democracyforamerica.com/dfa-list.php

(snip)
Tony Castro for District Attorney of Westchester County, New York. At the age of nine, Tony immigrated to America from Portugal. His family settled in New Bedford, MA where his father worked as a deep-sea fisherman and his mother as a seamstress in a union shop. He became the first in his family to go to college when he won a scholarship to Harvard University. After law school, Tony took a job in the Bronx District Attorney's office where he worked his way up the ranks. Now, Castro is running to fill the open seat left by Jeanine Pirro for D.A. of Westchester County. In 2001, Castro came within just 6 points of victory when he ran against Pirro, despite being outspent 10-to-1. Let's make sure Castro has the resources to finish what he started and bring change to Westchester County. The election is November 8, 2005.

FYI, I belong to Democracy For Westchester, and we are busting our asses to 1) get him on this list and 2) get him elected to the DA's office.

1. I would love to see him win because it would
be a slap in the face for Pirro. She was barely re-elected in 2001 and now her ego has grown to the point that she wants to attack Hillary. By the way Jeanine, we have page 10, and it shows how your limo driver is one of the highest paid county employees.

2. Pirro's husband is also a convicted felon, BTW.
And from a personal encounter more than 10 years ago, I can tell you he's a prick.

3. I know about that, but the limo driver example is more
specific yet humorous.
