Mayor Bloomberg shelled out $1.55 million in bonuses to members of his campaign staff.

Thanks a million!

Billionaire Mayor Bloomberg doled out $1.55 million in bonuses to 79 campaign staffers yesterday - including a whopping $400,000 to campaign manager Kevin Sheekey.

The other big winners were Patricia Harris, a top campaign adviser and deputy mayor, who got $350,000, and Bill Cunningham, a senior campaign strategist, who received $300,000.

The mayor gave every other staffer on the campaign's payroll a bonus equivalent to 20% of the staffer's total salary. The checks were mailed yesterday - and in time to bring some cheer in the new year.

The county where I worked for eleven years gave every employee a $4.00 credit toward a special holiday dinner somewhere. Happy Effing Holidays.

One of the figures quoted in the story, Stu Loeser, came to Bloomberg via Hillary and Co., if memory serves.

Bloomberg's Transportation commissioner is married ( yes, married) to Schumer. See how it works?

Accounts for much of the winking and nodding that RW DEMS were engaging in during Bloomberg's 73 million dollar reelection romp.

Lot's of Dems are making out like proverbial bandits under the Bloomeister... not just these folks.

I voted for him anyway - but only because he was the Dem nominee.

He couldn't run a political campaign if his life depended on it.

I am outraged. :mad: :nuke:

for a few.

What the fuck is wrong with that picture?

interest groups at the expense of the public.
