Dear Louise,

Upstate NY is proud of you.  In your many years of serving the people, you have done so many great things for your constituents, your party, and the nation as a whole.  All of us on the blue side of the aisle in the Upstate are greatly honored to have such a wonderful Congresswoman representing our region.  In your 11 terms, we've always supported and stood by you and likewise, you've supported us.  For that, you will always have our gratitude.

However I am greatly troubled by the recent news that you might actually consider backing David Nachbar again rather than Eric Massa in NY-29.
