Republican New York gubernatorial candidate Carl Paladino's (pictured, left) campaign sent out an e-mail attacking his Democratic opponent, Andrew Cuomo (pictured, right), for not doing enough to support gay rights, just days after Paladino criticized Cuomo for bringing his kids to a gay pride parade.
Talking Points Memo reports that Paladino's e-mail references the New York Democrats who spoke out in support of same-sex marriage last year, adding, "But the state's most popular Democrat, Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo, was all but visible."
