LISA MADIGAN'S CHAMPIONS EVENT AT FULTON'S ON THE RIVER













CLOSING REMARKS BY HOWARD TULLMAN:

I know. You’re asking yourselves what’s he still doing here? I’m usually gone before they serve the salad, but Lisa, who’s nothing if not crafty, had them put me at the end of the program since she knew that no one would be briefer or more ready to leave than me.



So let me ask you just one last important question. Where has she been keeping all that hair for all these years? Honestly, who knew we had “Sigourney” Madigan in our midst?


But seriously, here’s the real question – when’s the last time you were proud to vote for a politician? How long has it been since we’ve had the luxury of supporting someone we believed in and not the lesser (albeit shorter) of two evils?


That’s why it’s so important to be here today and so critical that everyone here – sad and disheartened as we may all be about the general state of things – not forget the one “general” who actually cares about justice, who works her butt off, who stands up for the people who can’t defend themselves, and who just makes you proud to say –“she’s ours” and she’s out there every day making the state a better place for all of us.


So that’s why I’m still here, why I’ve been supporting her forever, and why I think in the very short time that we have before this election that every one of us needs to get up, get involved, get a friend or two to join the team as well, and do everything we can to re-elect the best Attorney General in the United States – Lisa “Sigourney” Madigan.
