Main St. or Wall St. Rick?

Just last week, Rick Lazio said, "I think the people of New York would never tolerate somebody who ducked or hid from answering questions about where he or she stands on the issues." (Alan Chartock Show, 6/25/10)

So why won't he reveal his stance on the landmark financial reform bill the House passed yesterday?

"Rick likes to talk about taking a stand on the issues, but when it comes time to actually take a stand on an issue that might bother his big banker buddies, he ducks," said Charlie King, Executive Director of the NYS Democratic Committee.
