Hey Johns, Quaglione & Seravalli, what gives ?????
I visited the [your] Twitter site --- NOTHING NEW THERE FROM YOU SINCE BEFORE ELECTION DAY
Enquiring minds want to know.....
The last entry is on election night, but it's from Ross Barkan; you know, the former DEMOCRAT CANDIDATE FOR THE STATE SENATE against Gounardes and Golden.....

UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE " 'NO RESULTS' CROWD STRIKES AGAIN..." EDITION
I JUST CHECKED OUT THE TWITTER PAGES OF MY TWO FAVORITE "JOHNS" --- NO, I WON'T TALK ABOUT THAT, RIGHT NOW: I'LL STICK TO POLITICS --- SERAVALLI & QUAGLIONE SEEM TO HAVE HAD A SUDDEN AND COMPLETE DISINTEREST IN LOCAL POLITICS SINCE ELECTION NIGHT
IT'S LIKE THEY ARE THE ONES WHO BRIEFED THE "...THREE COPS..." AT PIPIN'S ON ELECTION NIGHT --- YOU KNOW, THE "NO RESULTS" LINE.....
WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE THERE ARE STILL "NO RESULTS" IN THE GOLDEN-GOUNARDES RACE --- AT LEAST AS FAR AS JOHN QUAGLIONE AND JOHN SERAVALLI ARE CONCERNED
Maybe, it is they, who are telling Marty G. not to throw-in the towel.
Q was too frightened to meaningfully play a role in this election. John S was the only Manhattanite involved who wasn’t a total train wreck. Marty’s most loyal supporters will tell you it was a train wreck of a campaign. Andrew Gounardes should be sending thank you notes to Jerry for a long time.
The FACT is, and I do stress FACT, no results are official until all the ballots are counted.
Do facts matter on this cop hating anti GOP anti Catholic blog?
All that tough talk suddenly silenced. Look, Golden knows Kassar blew this one majorly. Golden blindly trusted Kassar one too many times and let it all fall appart. Most agree that Golden lost this race because Kassar allowed him to be surrounded himself with cocky young hot shots and "Yes Men" who don't live in the district. Call a spade a spade; if Ray Riley and Georgia were still in that office, Golden would be in Aruba celebrating right now and not counting hanging chads on Court Street

>>> YOUR "FACTS" <<< DON'T JUST BECOME "FACTS" BECAUSE YOU SAY SO --- THE REAL FACTS ARE THAT WHEN ALMOST ALL OF THE VOTES WERE COUNTED ON ELECTION NIGHT, MARTY GOLDEN HAD CLEARLY LOST RE-ELECTION BY A SIGNIFiCANT MARGIN OF THE VOTE --- PERIOD, FULL STOP..... ANY EXPERIENCED ELECTION WATCHER WILL TELL YOU >>> THAT "RESULT" WILL NOT CHANGE <<<
In addition, you seem to be a little distraught and confused on many other points.
This is an >>> independent Republican <<< blog; you do get that don't you?
"Cop hating"! For poking a little fun at a few guys in a bar for their lack of social skills? Hardly...
"Anti-Catholic" for arguing against cover-ups and trying to clean up one of the Catholic Church's biggest fiascos ever, since it's been organized in the United States? For the record: I Galewyn Massey am probably more an agnostic than an Ayn Rand atheist, but most of my closest and most active BSIs are solid, church-going, God-fearing Roman Catholics. So, when it comes to church-related matters this blog is often critical, but not anti-Catholic at all.
10:02 is absolutely right. Georgea and Ray Riley may not be the nicest people around but would have made mincemeat out of Andrew Gounardes. Marty used to have pit bulls. Jerry came with lap dogs.
Sad when we talk about Golden effective staffers like Ray and Georgia..Quaglione is never mentioned. .
John, you can only get an unemployment check for so long
No unemployment checks for Bob. Unless the scanners break down.
John..u wish u had a job as a business executive to a billionaire.
Enjoy the unemployment line
I remember Quaglione campaigning to end bottle collecting ..bet he never though this would be his only source of income come January
Ahahahaha

TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 12:23 PM"
YOU HAVE TO ADMIT THAT YOUR REFERENCE TO "SCANNERS BREAK[ING] DOWN" IS SOMEWHAT VAGUE
Since around NYC the news on Election Day included scanners breaking down and long lines at the polls, maybe that's what you were talking about.....
Lucky for you, if you clearly were referring to checkout scanners at the supermarket your comment would have seen the inside of the dust bin.
So now this cop hating anti GOP blog has moved on to staten island. GWM must be tired of sitting on Justins lap.
No tweets since election night? Gale, LIFE HAS NO MEANING WITHOUT MARTY.
Q will become a lobbyist and triple his income.
keep dreaming Q.
With Donovan,Fran, Kassar, a dozen Longs, all on the job hunt the best you can hope for is Sr Intern for Nicole.
Ever since election day the 99% of the voters who rejected capano last year really regret it.
And this year that reform party was only rejected by 98% of voters.
5;57 is being generous.
The reform party got less 0.4% of the vote.
Hey Bobs base is expanding

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK THAT THIS BLOG HAS MOVED ANYWHERE ??? LOOK AT THE TITLE; IT ONLY HAS BROADENED ITS GEOGRAPHICAL AND SOCIAL AMBIT A BIT
See yuhs around. Bye !!!!!
Q will snag a big high-powered lobbying gig because he has all tight connections with all the New York City Republicans and that is in very high demand right now since they are not in power
Where has Anthony Testaverde been? We all know Marty caved to pressure from the local Dems and wink-wink nudge-nudge "fired" him back in March but it seems regardless of what he told the newspapers, Marty kept paying Testaverde long after he was "fired"
I'll phone Ken Lovett in the morning and make sure he is aware of this tidbit

TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 8:05 PM"
YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS !!! --- OR CAN YOU ???
I Sincerely hope that you aren't John Quaglione himself --- if so, this comment would be more than a cry for help.....
Whether you are or aren't, let's unpack what you could have been thinking when you said this: "Q will snag a big high-powered lobbying gig because he has all tight connections with all the New York City Republicans and that is in very high demand right now since they are not in power." Honestly, does that make any sense at all ?
Why would any Republican like Q be "... in very high demand right now since [Republicans] are not in power."
And I did a quick fact check whether "[Quaglione] has all tight connections with all the New York City Republicans...." Nobody even knows what that is supposed to mean.
Put it all together, and there is nothing truthful or logical in the comment.
You got it right Gale. Election day was the day the music died for the Bay Ridge GOP.
Bye bye miss American pie
Bye bye John Quaglione, Jerry Kassar, Marko. Kepi, Anthony Servalli and upper East side Psychos
You know the local GOP is in shambles when the only person who came out smelling like a rose was Nicole. What bitter poetic justice that is for the old stodgy boys club.
About the music dying in Bay Ridge, perhaps it’s over and Brooklyn GOP turns into the Bronx, sad but most likely scenario. We should at least try to right the ship and resist Jerry and find a new County Chairman someone older who can stand up to him. What was allowed to happen to Marty’s campaign is ridiculous and Jerry owns it. That we let him make it happen is even worse.
Nicole's problem is that the more people who meet her, get to know her, the fewer people who trust her. The longterm prognosis for her is not good.
If Nicole was always afraid to stand up to Marty and Kassar, there is no way she can be taken seriously..as of yesterday she is still taking her marching orders from kassar...very sad especially given the election results...
Jerry is suggesting Liam has a lock as the new Chairman just to get people like Nicole in line. Even Jerry doesn’t know if he’s the one he wants he just needs to appear in charge which is why Nicole listens to him more than Leticia on Staten Island.

I NEVER SAID OR IMPLIED THAT THE MUSIC DIED FOR THE BROOKLYN GOP ON TUESDAY, 11/6/18 --- DIDN'T YOU SEE [HEAR] THE SERENADE OF QUEEN'S "WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS" FROM THE ANTI-MARTY REPUBLICANS ABOVE ???
THIS IS THE WORST THAT IT'S BEEN FOR THE BROOKLYN GOP SINCE THE EARLY-TO-MID-80s --- THEN THE "BLUE WAVE" WAS IN REACTION TO REAGAN'S ELECTION AND IT SWEPT OUT ALMOST EVERYBODY --- HOWEVER, COMEBACKS FOR THE BROOKLYN GOP ARE POSSIBLE --- HOWEVER, THEY REQUIRE A MIX OF SOME "RETURN TO BASICS" AND SOME "RE-INVENTION"
Your choice of Don McLean's "American Pie" was not apt. The GOPers who lost out last Tuesday weren't "Greats" - "Okays" - or even "[Acceptably] Poors"; they were a bunch of self-serving rotten scumbags and useless dead-enders. What I say unequivocally is this "Good riddance to bad rubbish !!!!!"
11/6/18 is the day of the deliverance and rebirth of the Brooklyn GOP..... And to show you that the music didn't die..... [Cue the Mormon Tabernacle Choir]
"ALLELUIA ! - ALLELUIA !! --- ALLELUIA-AL-LE-LU-IA !!!!! ....."
7:15, better stop talking about Liam for a long while.
Get up to speed.
Things are bad, again, for Liam. Very, very bad, indeed.
7:24 GM Malliotakis looks like be only Republican left which means not only more of same but probably worse. Jerry exerted heavy influence on Golden. Jerry owns Malliotakis she is his robot.
Nicole is a lapdog for Kassar and another waste, Leticia.
They run circles around her and control her every movement.
She will NEVER will anything other than her piss-ant assembly seat unless she cuts them loose. The SI Electeds despise her also, so she really has no friends in politics.
728am
Are you saying Liam had yet another "slip" after yet another election night drubbing?? Back to the rehab story and claims of redemption? Republicans are done with his games
825
Ahahahah
Envy for a business executive working for a billionaire, columnist, Professor , Bklyn Independent Political Club Co Founder.
Ahahahahahahahahababavababav
Bob Cratchit worked for a billionaire
That's the great thing about Capano..you take away one of his titles he has many others..compare to to his 2 GOP primary opponents last year , you take away their only title they have no others..
Quaglione- Golden lackey, that is gone come January
Liam- TLC Operator, well at least he still has that (unless he has to take another "personal leave"
Wait a minute! Bob Capano, "Bob Cratchit"? I don't think so.
I knew Bob Cratchit. Bob Cratchit was a friend of mine. And Bob Capano sure ain't no Bob Cratchit.
BTW, Ebeneezer Scrooge had a nice tidy sum, especially after Marley died, but surely he was no "BILLIONAIRE"!
Neither was Trump
I don't understand why all this squabbling over who will be the new Party Chair when there is no Party to speak of. Nicole is the only one left. The Brooklyn Republican Party officially died last Tuesday night. And Liam? He will be with Artie Lang soon enough if you catch my drift. Things are bad, again, for Liam. Very, very bad, indeed. A conversation by the old raildroad trestle isn't going to save him now.
Even if Liam is chosen as Jerry’s new puppet he can’t be worse than what we have now. Jerry has more influence in the Brooklyn GOP with only Nicole left than he did as Golden’s chief of staff. She does exactly what he tells her how he tells her when he tells her.
No, the statement: "The Brooklyn Republican Party officially died last Tuesday night...." is patently false; the Kings County Republican COmmittee still exists, under the law and in reality. You should also know that "Nicole" officially has nothing to do with the Brooklyn [Kings County] Republican Organization; so, her being "the only one left" is completely irrelevant.
Nick Chamberas is the fresh, new leadership the GOP needs in Bklyn and of course him working for Brooklyn's only Republican elected is a plus.
Unlike Liam, you don't have to worry about Nick embarrassing the party, if you know what I mean...
I suspect Nicole made show some independence here from Kassar and back Nick...kill 2 birds with one stone--- show you are your own person by separating from Kassar and have your person leading the Bklyn GOP
1:31 is fake news. Anybody who knows Nick Chambers knows he doesn’t like the spotlight and doesn’t want any leadership positions.
All hail Chairman Chambers
The Republican party in Brooklyn died over 40 years ago. Around the same time as Elvis.
What Happened you ask?
What happened is the corrupt democratic machine stole an election and its our duty to count all the votes. This is a constitutional crisis.
1:31 Independence from Jerry? If Jerry told Nicole to "bury" Nick Chambers, her first and only question would be what kind of shovel to use. That's the kind of relationship they have. Anyone thinking to the contrary is naive. She's been using him for years and it's time he woke up.
Nick "The Corduroy Bodega Shlub" Chamberas throwing his own hat into a ring not currently accepting hats may be the best story of 2018. Give it a break, Chamberas, you are not Chair material. The only person I know who could and should be given the gavel is a very distinguished man named Craig Eaton. Returning Chairman Eaton is the only one who can right this sinking ship and prop it up and resurrect this Party into something worth saving.
4:45 is obviously one of the loser hangers on minions of Jerry hoping to curry favor. It is well known that Nick Chambers and Craig Eaton are good friends. Nick Chambers would probably be the first one to support Craig but both have a lot more important things going on in their lives than to spend countless hours worrying about heading up a non-existent party. But just like the "genius" who comes on here writing about how close Ghorra is with Cats, there is no way for these blockheads to know or process anything that they're not told by the people signing their checks.
Liam is the next chair.
Nick Chamberas can't stand up for himself never mind Republicans..Malliotakis looked to Robert Morgan throughout her campaign this year despite Nick being with her for years..Nick is a glorified gopher, not a leader
I remember that Kings County Politics story where Nick was mentioned as a candidate for the 46th AD..Nicole pushed him aside and Morgan and Liam made sure Saperstein got the nod
People going after Nick Chambers same people who go after Craig Eaton, sad that their livelihoods and political hack jobs literally depend on coming to this blog to attack people. Whether Marty lost or Nicole lost, Nick and Craig’s professional and personal lives don’t change a bit. I guess it’s a lot easier to blog nasty stuff when achieving any respect outside of your patronage job relies on affecting who becomes leader of a political party that no longer exists.
5:20 more fake news and it proves that these guys have no choice but to follow orders and post. Yea Nick Chambers wants to be in the Assembly and Craig wants to be Chair again. Steve reached out to Nick and maybe some of his idiot staff posting on here should ask him why he was never interested in running. Hint it would explain why he was one of Steve’s earliest supporters.
Is Nick related to Robert Chambers?
first cousins
Lets talk facts here:
a) Nick Chamberis is a man of honor and integrity who believes in the Republican Party and its principles and Malliotakis owes him a big debt of gratitude for all the support he has given her over the years - support, my friends, which is not warranted at all;
b) Malliotakis is a waste as an elected official, is Jerry's lapdog, and failed miserably in the Mayoral campaign - so badly in fact that she is an embarrassment to the GOP;
c) Malliotakis has thrown so many of her friends and supporters under the bus, at the request of Jerry and his henchwoman, Leticia "I wont work unless I get paid and can skim off all the campaign funds" Remauro - Jerry and Leticia are horrible human beings;
d) Jerry is now telling everyone that Golden lost because of Donovan. What Jerry isnt saying or explaining is why the campaign's mail sucked, why the campaign had no strategy in place, and most importantly why Golden still has over $ 200,000 in his campaign account? If he knew the race would be close, and all indications were that he was going to lose, why didnt he spend every last $$$ to GOTV, mail, and people on the ground;
e) Golden is a desperate old man, trying to hang onto his title, his $$, his stature and his soul - without a Senate pin he is just an old, drunken, retired irish cop -= plain and simple.
f) Eaton and Malliotakis were very close for many years and he picked her up every time Kassar and Golden abused her..and then she forgot all of that..and now I hear Eaton wants nothing to do with her.
BUT what isnt a fact is WHAT EXACTLY DOES KASSAR HAVE OVER MALLIOTAKIS? WHY DOES SHE LISTEN TO HIS EVERY WORD?
Nicole will be the nominee against Rose in 2020.
Whether Nicole is the nominee or not one thing is certain, much like the Mayoral campaign, J&L crony inc. will get well fed.
The social media machine that Marty Golden's cabal ha going during the campaign has been silent for a whole week.
Quaglione, Seravalli and South Brooklyn Red doing their non-music, non-words version of the Simon & Garfunkel hit "Sounds of Silence" - or how odd to hear so many crickets in mid-November.
Martys guys were just in it for the buck. Like Marty.

TO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 5:23 AM"
YOUR FAKE NEWS NONSENSE IS NOT ACCEPTABLE HERE --- THESE ARE THE FACTS --- CRAIG EATON HAS BEEN QUITE ACTIVE BEHIND THE SCENES WITH THE ACTUAL LEADERS OF THE TWO MAJOR PARTIES CONCERNING THE RECENT PAST AND THE FUTURE OF MARTY GOLDEN --- WITH OR WITHOUT CRAIG EATON'S INPUT, BY ELECTION DAY, THE LEADERS OF BOTH MAJOR PARTIES WERE WELL AWARE THAT THERE WAS A REASONABLE LIKELIHOOD THAT MARTY GOLDEN WAS GOING TO LOSE HIS BID FOR RE-ELECTION
In the final days, few of the parties paid and/or more respected wonks were interested in any of the spin coming or from most of those connected to the Golden campaign or the almost non-existent Ghorra Brooklyn GOP operation. There were some in Golden's circle that knew a bad result was the likely outcome, but they stuck with the pro-Golden spin, rather than risk any internal reprisals. I'm told that even Jerry knew.
One link to ANY comment by Eaton on the race??
BACKFILL: THE "FOR THE RECORD" EDITION
GOLDEN'S PHONY PRE-ELECTION DATA HAD BEEN REPORTED-ON BY A MAJOR AREA DAILY, NEWSDAY, SOON AFTER THE ELECTION.....
THE "SPIN" WAS PUSHED TO STOP LAST SECOND DEFECTIONS --- NOW, YOU KNOW --- THEY EVEN >>> LIED <<< TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE
Here's the meat: "Some Republican allies said they were being told up until the final days that incumbents such as Sens. Martin Golden (R-Brooklyn) and Elaine Phillips (R-Flower Hill) were ahead in internal polls. Both lost. Phillips fell by about 10,000 votes to Democrat Anna Kaplan, who scored a 55 percent to 45 percent victory...."

DOES THE COMMENT THAT YOU JUST POSTED INDICATE EATON'S "SUPPORTED" GOLDEN --- NO !!!!!
MUCH MORE LIKELY, IT WAS/IS AN INTENTIONAL AND CLEAR SIGNAL OF CRAIG'S "NON-SUPPORT" FOR MARTY.....
Craig had given many people many an earful of what he had thought about our Republican state senator before the election..... FYI, he's still doing it.....
As for credit or blame for Marty's loss --- that certain someone, who seems to be your obsession, has told me this: ".... And I'm very proud to say that I had my hand in a lot of that [the total campaign against Marty Golden}, and we all can say that we contributed to it [Marty Golden's lost election in 2018]...."
Jerry and the Manhattan couple naturally obsessed with Nicole and trying to pretend that Cats and family don’t skeeve them like everyone else. Stands to reason that the would go after anyone affiliated with her since they’ve literally wrecked every campaign they’ve been involved in. Grimm, Saperstein, and even Golden lost races in which they once held huge leads. Eventually it would be Nicole’s turn to receive their generosity.
7:47 don't know if that's true about Nicole but seems like a logical conclusion since Nicole had the worst showing since winning office eight years ago, granted she doesn't fit into the typical Rob mold of a candidate losing by 40 points...she did do poorly enough to indicate that Nick was shunned and Rob was in charge.
Max Rose announced he is coming out against Nancy Pelosi as speaker.
Still time left for Dan to announce if hes coming out.
10:07 - But Golden lost...didnt you see the headlines? get over yourself and move on.
Mr. McCabe is back on Facebook attacking the Mayor again.
Point of information: the Mayor signs Mr. McCabe's paychecks.
The new king of bay ridge will be showing the Mayor McCabes attack.
