Not for nothing, state Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli might want to hit up Mayor Michael Bloomberg for a contribution or two if and when the time comes. Rhetoric as sweet as this is rare from such an office. Today's press release from DiNapoli trumpets:
"New York City ended fiscal year 2007 with a record $4.7 billion surplus and for the second consecutive year has managed unanticipated resources with an exemplary blend of prudence and foresight, according to a report released today by State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli."
"An exemplary blend of prudence and insight" could make for a good quote on somebody's campaign literature for something.
