It was the cussing and the fact that his name wasn't Tommy Raffo. Polk tried his damnedest to make sure Cohen wouldn't succeed. He really poisoned the well with a lot of long time donors. They all thought they could get rid of Cohen and Byrne and get LT back so LT would hire Raffo.
When Cohen and Byrne told them in no uncertain terms, and Cohen was pretty abrasive about it, that this wasn't Ron Polk's MSU anymore, they took their ball(and money) and went home.
Some tried to come back after Cohen righted the ship and act like nothing happened, Cohen remembered.
