Take the Money and Run

Who would have ever thought that our old friend Hank Sheinkoff would be staring in a re-make of the old Woody Allen movie, "Take the Money and Run." Well, what else to make, then, of the following from today's NY Daily News: "Mayor Bloomberg snatched another high-profile political consultant from his rivals Tuesday, hiring veteran Democratic operative Hank Sheinkopf. "No one knows more about New York City politics and campaigns than Hank," said Howard Wolfson, Bloomberg's campaign communications director."

Quite a turn of events-but if any one can make a silk's purse of the mayoral sow's ear. it's Hammerin' Hank. We do wish him well, and can't wait to see the W-2 on this gig. Salud!
