So, who dazzled you?

It’s showtime! Candidates running to succeed Councilman Bill DeBlasio and represent a district that stretches from Carroll Gardens to Kensington are being asked to “dazzle” a Carroll Gardens community group at an upcoming forum. So The Brooklyn Paper asked the five men fighting for the Democratic nomination what politician has dazzled them.

Howard Dean. I was against the war [in Iraq] from before the beginning, and he was a guy who was right and early, [too]. It took a while for public opinion to come around to him. He took a bold stand that was unpopular at the time.”

Bobby Kennedy. I loved that he fought for the underprivileged and the middle class. He fought for people that needed government to help them.
