When Bill Thompson called fellow Democrat Carmen Arroyo at her Albany office to discuss his race for mayor, she ended the conversation abruptly.
“I had to hang the telephone on him because he was calling my office in Albany,” Arroyo, an Assemblywoman from the Bronx, said in a telephone interview from her home. “He has to be careful. I’m not going to discuss politics on that phone. I shouldn’t.”
“It’s not because I hate him or something like that,” Arroyo said. “You’re talking to me on my house [phone]. He could do the same thing.”
Thompson may want to save himself the call.
