It was only a matter of time before Todd Kaminsky, the Democratic state senator from Long Beach, brought in the big guns in his campaign for Nassau district attorney.

No, not an AK-47.

But actor, producer and comedian Mel Brooks, who is Kaminsky's great uncle.

He was born Melvin Kaminsky in 1926.

Brooks has weighed in with a droll message of support in all of Kaminsky's past campaigns, definitely contributing to his great-nephew's past victories.

Kaminsky, a former federal prosecutor,  is running against Republican Anne Donnelly, a 32-year prosecutor in the county district attorney's office, in the Nov. 2 election.

Here's what was texted --or robo-called -- to many people -- not just Democrats -- this evening.

But the exempts are not happy with some of the rumors about the agreement: one is that the CSEA will take a lesser health insurance plan in return for an upfront payment, perhaps of $1,500, for each member....
