N.Y. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand Under Fire from Opponents Over DADT

U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York has been a vocal advocate for repeal of the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy, and her potential Republican challengers attempted to portray that as “pandering to special interest groups” during a debate Tuesday evening. “You need to listen to the military leaders,” said Bruce Blakeman, who unsuccessfully ran for New York City mayor last year. “Give them time.
