This 39th district City Council race just doesn't disappoint. If it's not one thing it's another. Ya gotta love politics. Howard Dean, former presidential candidate was in Park Slope this morning. He managed to endorse both Josh Skaller AND Brad Lander. 

Brooklyn – Dr. Howard Dean endorsed Brad Lander’s candidacy for the 39th City Council District at an event in Park Slope this morning.

“He is a progressive,” the Former Governor, DNC Chairman and founder of Democracy for America said, noting that Lander had worked on his presidential campaign.

Dean also endorsed fellow City Council candidate Josh Skaller at the same event. He explained that he had been impressed with the positive focus of both campaigns.

Lander said he was thrilled to have Dean’s co-endorsement. “Governor Dean is a progressive champion on so many important issues, from fixing America’s health care system to bringing our troops home from Iraq. I want to confront the challenges we face in New York City with the same energy, conviction, and commitment to progress that he has displayed time and again.”
