NY Democrat Takes Shot at Other Democrat AG Hopefuls

From LoHud.com:

Nassau County District Attorney Kathleen Rice, one of five Democrats running for attorney general, said on TALK 1300 AM in Albany this morning that the job is one for a lawyer, “not a career politician,” and she took shots specifically at Sen. Eric Schneiderman, D-Manhattan, and Assemblyman Richard Brodsky, D-Greenburgh, two of her four opponents. She also said she’s an “outsider” and not a “Wall Street insider” or someone who donates hundreds of thousands of dollars to political campaigns.

On Schneiderman, Rice said, “He doesn’t have the experience to do this job. This is a job for a lawyer, not a career politician. That’s the difference between Senator Schneiderman and the difference between me.”

Schneiderman, who is a lawyer, has been a senator since 1999. Brodsky, an assemblyman since 1982, is also a lawyer. Other Democratic contenders for the Sept. 14 primary are former federal prosecutor Sean Coffey; and Eric Dinallo, former commissioner of the state Insurance Department and a lawyer.
