Warren Redlich has just attacked me on the Google newsgroups regarding
my campaign promise to abolish rent control.

Here is Warren Redlich's attack and my reply:

Dear Mr. Redlich,

I live in the Bronx. It is not true that I live in Section 8 Housing.
I must tell you that my son is seriously mentally ill and nothing he
says can be believed.

However, even if it were true I do not see how it would affect my
credibility on this issue. Everybody in New York City is affected by
the rent control situation. Either they benefit from Rent Control,
such as those who pay $150 per month to live in luxury thee-bedroom
apartments on the Upper East Side, or they are hurt by rent control,
such as landlords and building owners who cannot charge a fair rent
for their properties.

How is your campaign for the Republican Party nomination for Governor
of New York State going?
