Quinn "Taunts" Bloomberg On Soda Ban
Yesterday a state judge blocked Michael Bloomberg's ban on "large sugary drinks," which was to have gone into effect today. Openly gay 2013 mayoral candidate and current City Council Speaker Christine Quinn celebrated on CNN by swigging from a large Diet Coke during her interview with Piers Morgan. Because she has totally not been Bloomberg's enforcer for the last 12 years. Or something. Quinn then shrugged off Morgan's observation that Coca-Cola has donated to her campaign. "It's a small donation in total from Coca-Cola execs of $10,000 out of about the $6 million or $7 million we raised so far."
