To get us ready for the Republican National Convention, which is going to happen, like or not, folks, Gotham Gazette has created yet another fun interactive game that allows you to "Find Your Inner Republican." And, yes, there might be one lurking. It's actually a great tool to see where you line up on the issues and which NYC (or NY State) Republicans you're most like and a way to learn more about those past and present leaders. It's looking like there's quite a bit of Mayor John Lindsay in Gothamist on social issues. Another Gotham Gazette interactive game that we've enjoyed is the NYC Budget Game.
And today, the Daily News has an exclusive about the police trying to tell the homeless to move away from Madison Square Garden because homelessness = scary to convetioneers and national TV crews, just as the NY Times looks at a draft of the city's new policy on homelessness that may eliminate some from entering the shelter system. Sigh.
