U.S. Senate Debate: There was a debate at Cornell University last night, with incumbent Democratic U.S. Senator Charles Schumer squaring (triangulating?) off with Republican moderate Assemblyman Howard Mills and Conservative Party candidate Dr. Marilyn F. O'Grady. In review, Howard Mills turned out to be quite the social liberal; Schumer performed decently; and O'Grady came on strong to a Republican base.

Schumer will probably win the majority, Mills will gain some Democratic votes with his John Kerry-style debate, and O'Grady will gain the respect of a lot of Republican-conservatives...

Throwing in the towel: The owner of Buffalo's "Jimmy Mac's" bar and grill has given up his valiant effort against the Erie County Health Department; he is shutting down after 24 years in business, citing the absolute smoking ban imposed unilaterally by the New York State government in July 2003 that caused him to lose 40% of his business (WGRZ)...
