Which was the most fevered lunge for self-promotion by a power player?
1. Former U.S. Sen. Alfonse D’Amato breaking from the state GOP to back former colleague Fred Thompson for president.
2. U.S. Rep. Joseph Crowley (D-Queens) supporting Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s controversial weekday toll plan for Manhattan, saying “from time to time there come issues of such importance that are bigger than anybody.”
3. U.S. Rep Peter King (R-Nassau) declaring that “defeat of the Senate Amnesty bill was a victory for Americans and for the rule of law.”
