Which was the most fevered lunge for self-promotion?
1. Suffolk Legis. Brian Beedenbender (D-Centerreach) pushing legislation to require licensed contractors in the county to document their employees' legal working status.
2. Rev. Allan Ramirez condemning the measure, and arguments used to support it, as “race-baiting.”
3. Radio commentator Rush Limbaugh saying Sen. John McCain, despite winning GOP primaries, “is not the choice of conservatives as opposed to the Republican establishment.”
