Another "It's All About Me" Democrat

From the New York Daily News:  Bon Jovi fans hoping for a concert at the New York State Fair have been shot through the heart — and a fundraiser by Gov. Cuomo might be to blame.
State officials mysteriously scrapped plans for the New Jersey-based band to appear at the fair, in Syracuse, on Aug. 28, citing “scheduling conflicts.”
On Aug. 25, band leader Jon Bon Jovi is scheduled to give a private performance for Gov. Cuomo’s well-heeled supporters at a $1,000-per-ticket campaign fund-raiser in the Hamptons.
Two state government sources told the Syracuse Post-Standard the Cuomo administration scuttled the concert because it might seem as if the governor’s private show was being funded by the band’s $650,000 contract with the state fair. The concert was projected to generate up to $1.1 million in revenue for the fair.....
A Bon Jovi spokeswoman also blamed the cancellation on a scheduling conflict but refused to elaborate. The band’s official website, however, lists no other performances by Bon Jovi until Sept. 10 in Mexico City.
