RIGHT NOW, THERE IS SO MUCH WRONG WITH THE BROOKLYN GOP --- PARTICULARLY, THE WAY IT IS CURRENTLY CONSTITUTED AND LED AROUND BY MARTY GOLDEN, GOLDEN'S UN-ELECTED STAFF AND CAMPAIGN BOSSES (SOME EVEN DEMOCRATS, LIKE MICHAEL TOBMAN) --- AND ESPECIALLY, THE NYS CONSERVATIVE PARTY'S BROOKLYN TENTACLE, WHICH IS WRAPPED TIGHTLY AROUND IT.....
THE ONLY THING LEFT FOR REAL REPUBLICANS AND CONSERVATIVES TO DO IS TO REBEL --- COMPLETELY SHUN THE REPUBLICAN AND CONSERVATIVE PARTY LINES --- AND INSTEAD, VOTE IN PROTEST FOR ALL THE CANDIDATES RUNNING ON THE REFORM PARTY LINE IN 2018 --- REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY ARE RUNNING ON ANY OTHER PARTY LINES --- OR WHETHER THEY ARE PRINCIPALLY REPUBLICANS, DEMOCRATS OR SOMETHING ELSE
>>> In particular, that means making the tough choice when it comes to the State Senator from the 22nd District. --- It means, as an extreme protest, not casting any kind of vote for Marty Golden on any of the lines upon which he is running; and as a one-time practical alternative, giving your vote to Andrew Gounardes, a moderate Bay Ridge Democrat, running on the Reform Party Line. <<<
REMEMBER, JUST THIS ONCE, BY NOT VOTING FOR MARTY GOLDEN AND VOTING FOR ANDY GOUNARDES INSTEAD, YOUR PROTEST VOTE WILL HAVE TWICE THE POWER AND STRENGTH THAT IT OTHERWISE WOULD HAVE BY PROTESTING IN MERELY NOT VOTING FOR STATE SENATOR AT ALL.....
*****
*** ALSO, YOU NEED TO KNOW THERE IS A VERY GOOD CHANCE --- THAT BY VOTING FOR STEVE SAPERSTEIN, NICOLE MALLIOTAKIS, AND DAN DONOVAN ON THE REFORM PARTY LINE --- YOU WILL ENSURE THAT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY NOT ONLY REMAINS ALIVE IN BROOKLYN --- IT WILL BE REVITALIZED AND STRONGER BY DUMPING GOLDEN AND HIS CABAL OF OUTSIDERS & SELF-SERVERS ***

I dunno, Gale.
Gounardes endorsement aside, Slippery Sliwa and his faithful ward Capano have proven not to be the kind of people deserving real political power.
Besides, New York would be a better place if the minor parties (especially WFP and the Conservatives) lost their ballot status.
RESPONSE: THE "DIRECTION NOT 'ENDORSEMENT'" EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 2:36 AM"
I THINK I KNOW WHO YOU ARE --- AND I THINK I KNOW ABOUT WHICH YOU SPEAK.....
I understand your joint and several concerns, both personal and institutional.
It remains to be seen what kind of political power Sliwa and Capano will garner in the aftermath of the instantly upon us 2018 election, if any at all. In the past, the Reform Party has not demonstrated any predictability or "form" when it comes to local races in Brooklyn --- their election numbers range from around 1% (note to self: temporarily lift the ban on the mention of that "1%") to percentages quantum leaps better than that.
More important, the "Third Party" issue is a real bear --- as long as the Conservative Party has the GOP in an intractable hammerlock, there will be no change in that --- the answer has to be legislative.
Lastly, let there be no doubt, I HAVE NOT ENDORSED ANDREW GOUNARDES --- I HAVE ISSUED AN ADVICE OR DIRECTIVE TO "INDEPENDENT-MINDED REPUBLICANS" TO DO CERTAIN THINGS IN ORDER TO PROTEST THE INTRA-PARTY DOMINATION BY MARTY GOLDEN AND HIS AIDERS-AND-ABETTORS, AND ALSO GIVEN THOSE INDEPENDENT-MINDED REPUBLICANS THE BEST WAY TO AUGMENT OR AMPLIFY THEIR PROTEST VOTE --- BY VOTING FOR GOUNARDES ON THE REFORM PARTY LINE --- NOT COMPLICATED, SIMPLE !!!!!
Saperstein will lose by at least 8 points which will be a disgrace as he could have won
How could Sap or any Republican win a seat that was scientifically designed by Assembly Democrats, with the best computer software available, to be a safe Democrat seat, in a year where even incumbent Republicans like Marty and Donovan are running scared?
659am
100 percent right bit that's the bull Liam and Morgan gave Saperstein..Will be yet another loss for them
Thank you, Gale!
UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "ROBOCALLS HAVE BEEN COMING IN FAST AND FURIOUS....." EDITION
THE LAST FEW DAYS I WAS QUITE SURPRISED AT HOW MUCH THE MARTY GOLDEN OPERATION WAS INVOLVED WITH ROBO-CALLS AND HOW LITTLE WITH TARGETED MAIL.....
BUT SINCE THIS COMMENT IS MOSTLY ABOUT ROBO-CALLS, LET'S DO A QUICK COMPARISON --- AS I SAID ABOVE, THE CALLS FOR MARTY HAVE BEEN FAST AND FURIOUS, TOO BAD THEY WEREN'T VERY GOOD --- MOSTLY, THEY WERE STUFF LIKE "... COME OUT TUESDAY/ TOMORROW/ TODAY TO VOTE FOR MARTY GOLDEN AND THE REST OF THE REPUBLICAN TEAM, BECAUSE WE CAN'T ALLOW THE DEMOCRATS TO HAVE ONE PARTY RULE..." ONE EVEN FOOLISHLY REMINDED FOLKS THAT NOT VERY LONG AGO WE DID HAVE ONE PARTY RULE BY THE DEMS.....
I HAVEN'T RECEIVED A SINGLE CALL FROM THE DEMS ABOUT GOUNARDES..... HOWEVER, THE ONE CALL ABOUT ANDY GOUNARDES THAT I DID RECEIVE WAS THE BEST OF ALL THE ROBO-CALLS, TO DATE.....
The best robo-call that I heard was from Curtis Sliwa urging a vote for Andrew Gounardes. It was enthusiastic and heartfelt, and Sliwa's passion for the material was palpable.
Maybe Sliwa will run against marty next time.
RESPONSE: THE "LET'S FOCUS ON THIS TIME --- BECAUSE MARTY GOLDEN HAS BEEN REPORTED TO BE ELECTIONEERING AT POLLING PLACES....." EDITION
TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 9:18 AM" (ONLY PRO FORMA)
THIS IS SOMETHING THAT MARTY WAS CAUGHT DOING LAST YEAR DURING THE CITY COUNCIL RACE..... NOW, HE'S BEEN CAUGHT DOING IT FOR HIMSELF.....
State Senator Marty Golden has been reported to be introducing himself and talking to people in line to vote at the Shore Hill polling place.
Clearly, Marty Golden is a well-known and habitual scofflaw based on his driving record. Since unlawful electioneering at a polling site is a violation of the New York State Election Law, we can add that to the list of laws that Marty feels he can break with impunity.
Just got back from voting at PS 185 on 86th & Ridge. Probably been voting for 20 years at this place and never had to wait. Different today. Lots of new faces on line and they didnt look like golden voters.
Who can focus on the mid terms with the Miss BumBum contest going viral.
WTF! Who or what is Miss BumBum?
Sliwa and Capano going all-out for Gounardes
The lines are the result of problems with the reading machines, the people not feeding the ballots into the reading machines properly or the ballots being wet when they're being fed into the reading machines.
That's BS. For the AM, there was a very high volume of voters and the failure of several scanners at the larger polling places caused big backups.
This is what wave voting looks like. There is very heavy voting in the Gounardes and BR Dems-friendly EDs. Andrew should run very well at the polling places in the Bay Ridge & Dyker parts of the 22nd state senate district.
Did anyone see in another slap to Eaton, John Catsimatidis sponsored a Facebook ad with Marty Goldens appearance on the Cats show
Talk about adding insult to injury.
Ghorra rolled over Eaton with Cats
Craig is done..cats abandoned him..he lost is only sense of relevance
What happened 5:03 and 5:52.....I hear crickets.....
I guess you are at the Bay Ridge Manor Funeral Home waiting for the now retired Golden to come down and tell you that there was a mistake. He won, but, really the vote count is wrong!
Someone please take away Golden's belt, shoelaces and sharp objects. Afterall without having a Senate pin on his lapel, he is only, lets say a retired drunken cop.
And, pretty please, also take away his driver's license since once he starts drinking again, God only knows how many speeding tickets he could get.
Gerry told him he was going to win all along, and the Morgans and all the other psychophants were going to bring him to victory. Kepi, Mclelland, Testa-Facebook guy, Ghorra and all the other stooges told him, we got this.
Well I guess they were all wrong.
Time to start packing up Golden, Kassar, Ghorra, Saperstein - all the losers...big losers tonight.
Well it couldnt have happened to a nicer group of people.
Amen, Amen, Amen
Ghorra rolled over who?
Craig is done?
Maybe you guys need to re-think this.
Eaton always made sure his Senator, Aseemblywoman and Congressman won, and he even won a lot of special elections also along the way.
Eaton won big tonight..very big tonight.
Ghorra lost big tonight. He now has no electeds in Brooklyn.
I just heard from the Manor that Marty is not conceding. Something about hanging chads?
Marty, when you move to Florida next month, hanging chads matter. Not here in Bay Ridge.
Breaking news. Election results:
Golden unemployed;
Kassar fat and unemployed;
Fran Vell Marone unemployed;
Jim McClelland unemployed;
Marko Kepi unemployed;
Hear there are some jobs at BJ's on the belt parkway?
Ghorra is the big loser. He walks around Bay Ridge with his ridiculous rug on his head, with his chest puffed out, with his big ego, like he is so important.
But he has been chair since November of 2016, and today lost all of his seats. Had no office, no friends, no ground game, no volunteers, and most troubling, no idea what the fuck he was doing, had to do, or should do.
He needs to go now, since he has decimated the Brooklyn GOP at the direction of Golden and Kassar.
You guys can say anything you want about Eaton, but he won races. Plain and simple, he worked hard and won races. And that is a fact. This would have never happened under his watch, and didnt during his 9 years as chair.
5:03, cat have your tongue now? Ghorra did what?
Oh yeah, I thought so.
Tonight was a disaster for the regime that brutally savaged Craig Eaton.
1,147 votes. Let us count the ways Uncle Marty's douchebaggery cost him those votes.
Eaton was muzzled in the state Senate race, one link to him taking a side so he is a non factor. Cats supported Golden over Eaton..fact
What races did Eaton win ? One link to a story of him supporting a winner..u just saw him supporting Dono van and he lost????
Cats went all-out for Golden against Eaton
I guess the guy or gal above just came home from the Bay Ridge Manor Funeral Home.
Whether Eaton was or wasnt muzzled is all irrelevant now. Golden lost and that is all that matters.
What races did Eaton win? If my memory is correct: Golden four times, Malliotakis four times, Fossella, Grimm and Donovan, Bob Turner special election, David Storobin special election, and County Chair four times...need I say more. I guess you werent around during the good times.
And the last comment, even if Cats went as you think "all out" for Golden, it wasnt against Eaton because Eaton gave his blessings to try to help the old man.
Go get some sleep so you can look at the wanted ads tomorrow. Need to get a job now I guess.
Anon at 10pm. Really. Do you really think anyone cares about what you have to say anymore about Eaton. He clearly was the big winner tonight with Golden's loss. You see Eaton went out on his own terms by not running again, but Golden got taken out by a young kid. Very embarrassing.
What will Atkins and Daly do now when Ghorra gets taken to the woodshed for these losses?
And what will Morgan do now that he lost another race?
I heard Liam was all smiles at the Manor tonight, salivating at the idea of being Brooklyn GOP Chair. Not so fast, Liam, I heard Marty was also looking at that seat
I guess if Cats went all out for Golden he also is a loser tonight....
Guess maybe it is good Eaton is not with him anymore
10:00 must have drank every last drop of whiskey that was left at the Manor tonight. As Chair, Craig had us a County Office and a County organization. After Marty and Jerry installed their puppet as head of the Brooklyn GOP we wound up with the Well known psychos running the ground game instead of a real organization and in place of a County Office we got to rent Dom Sarta’s basement once in a while. But that’s okay 10:00 can keep bullshitting us about Cats going all out for Golden.
Lets all dance on Golden's political grave now.
He has burned so many bridges and made so manyt enemies over the years, he deserves this loss
Good by you waste?
I heard Kassar and Golden were on life support tonight. After all, they have been on the public dime for decades and are basicly unemployable at the private sector.
Eaton won big tonight....very big.
Let's see after Eaton bragged on this blog about his "good friend " cats staying out of the race, Cats did a letter, Facebook endorsement, had Golden on his show, and a paid Facebook ad promoting Golden s segment on his show but Eaton says he gave his "blessing " according to his comments in 1008...laughable..the decisions were made by Cats and Eaton said yes sir....Eaton had no balls to come out for Gounardes so no One gives him any credit .....poor guy...some day he may be relevant again... until then he will still suck up to Cats even though it's clear when it comes to power moves in Brooklyn Cats listens to Ghorra
Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah
Does anybody really want to continue hearing about Cats and Golden, Golden and Cats, Andrea and Golden, blah blah blah?
I dont think so?
What do you people think?
Heard Kepi is on a plane back to Albania. Is it true?
All those chairs at the Manor had to be put away last night before Bob Morgan could go home.
10:11 not so fast about Liam being all smiles. As Ted Ghorra’s top deputy in this electoral disaster he shares much of the blame. Not only that, he and the real Brooklyn GOP Chairman Jerry, brought the two psychos from the Upper East Side. Not only did those two wreck the pullout of Saperstein and Golden, their constant presence in the Bay Ridge Office made it impossible for Golden to get volunteers to stick around. Many longtime GOP activists complained to Marty’s other senior staff members repeatedly and were ignored. Liam’s former business partners and Jerry’s favorite new couple needs to be kept away from any campaign that wants to win. They’ve literally destroyed every campaign they’ve been involved in.
Ghorra will be back with Cats now that all saw first hand that he and not Eaton have the pull with cats
