Is a grand old name re-emerging in Brooklyn's Grand Old Party ?

There are many birds in the trees near my early summer hideaway and one of them told me that the better part of a thousand signatures will be filed on behalf of the D'Angelo-Carbo leadership team in the 47th AD ---  I said, "Birdie, that's not very recent news...."


BUT, NO THIS ISN'T VERY OLD NEWS OR A TIME-WARP  ---  THIS IS NEW NEWS !

Since, my little bird is a Baker Street Irregular, who keeps his ear to the ground like Tonto, and backs that up with a lot of shoe leather where he keeps his ear [yes, he is a professional contortionist that occasionally appears on stage], I am willing to go out on a limb with this birdie.

It looks like Ron D'Angelo is making a comeback in Brooklyn GOP politics.  If even a small part of his old networks are intact, that would be a significant addition to the team supporting the "County Organization" of Craig Eaton, whose team is backing D'Angelo and Phyllis Carbo. In addition, it will also restore some additional institutional memory to the GOP in Brooklyn about the wheelings and dealings of the Seergy Club, late of the 49th AD, and more recently active in the 46th and 47th .

The return of D'Angelo is proof positive that talk of political graves is pointless.

Does the name Franco Zefferet sound familia ? Ask Mario Biaggi.

Packaging, packaging, packaging!

Just got a taxpayer funded letter from State Senator Marty Golden.

It advertises "Concerts in the Park 2013 Sponsored by State Senator Marty Golden."

It should read "Bread and Circus sponsored by YOU."

It is mind-boggling how he could get away with these "free" concerts (paid for with tax dollars) while so many of his constituents are out of work and/or struggling to make ends meet.

I hope real change comes in 2014!

Bob DiCarlo, roughly of similar vintage to R D'A, has tried to have a political rebirth out on North Shore Suffolk County. So far he's as popular to the GOP in Suffolk County as he was in Brooklyn.

There are second acts in life; they just aren't as memorable and are quickly forgotten. Unless you are from California --- Nixon, Reagan, Jerry Brown.

It was Bruno Zeferet. Mario Biaggi was the attorney who changed his name to Leo Zeferetti because it rymed with spaghetti.
