...BACKFILL: THE “REPUBLICAN WHISTLE BLOWER” EDITION<br /><br />DICKER “NAMES NAMES” AND “REPORTS ON DEAL” TO KEEP GOP SENATORS IN POWER <br /><br />INSIDER GOING “ON RECORD” ABOUT THIS STUFF IS RARE<br /><br />On Monday, the New York Post published one of the most important Fred Dicker columns ever. Seldom does such political backroom dealing get such a complete airing “on the record” by high level political operatives.<br /><br />According to Post NYS political columnist Fred Dicker, “The state’s most powerful Republican secretly worked for months to help Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo win re-election — in exchange for Cuomo’s promise not to aid Senate Democrats in their Long Island races, a top New York GOP leader has charged. *** Former state Republican Party Executive Director Michael Lawler — who managed Rob Astorino’s ill-fated gubernatorial run against Cuomo — told The Post that he learned of the alleged bombshell deal between Senate GOP leader Dean Skelos and Cuomo just days ago, after suspecting for months that it existed. *** ‘Dean Skelos clearly was working against Rob’s campaign — he and the governor cut a deal,’ seethed Lawler, a protégé of GOP Chairman Ed Cox. *** The Nassau County-based Skelos and his aides ‘fight for nothing, stand for nothing except staying in power,’ Lawler charged....” (See “Cuomo had a secret re-election ‘pact’ with Republicans” by Fredric U. Dicker, 11/10/14, NY Post [http://nypost.com/2014/11/10/cuomo-had-a-secret-re-election-pact-with-republicans/]). Dicker tied all of it to GOP Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano and his operatives, who backed Democrat Cuomo in his recent race against Republican Rob Astorino.<br /><br />Obviously, this kind of skulduggery was not limited to Long Island. What is needed is somebody on the inside with the likes of Marty Golden, Mike Long and Jerry Kassar to describe all of their deals with Cuomo and/or other Democrats to insulate the likes of Golden from a real challenge.Galewyn Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210379476512207622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-41543721584613962672014-11-12T01:33:00.776-05:002014-11-12T01:33:00.776-05:00BACKFILL: THE “CLUE TO WHAT ‘WE ARE NOW THE PARTY ...BACKFILL: THE “CLUE TO WHAT ‘WE ARE NOW THE PARTY IN CHARGE IN ALBANY....’ ACTUALLY MEANS” EDITION<br /><br />BROOKLYN EAGLE USES WORDS AND SYMBOLS TO SHOW OFF CONSERVATIVE LEADERS AFTER BIG “REPUBLICAN” ELECTION WINS IN SOUTHWEST BROOKLYN<br /><br />HEADLINE SHOUTS: “INCUMBENTS REIGN IN SOUTHWEST BROOKLYN” — PHOTO SHOWS CONSERVATIVE PARTY LEADERS KASSAR AND LONG<br /><br />J. Dozier Hasty has long been a friend of people like Mike Long, Jerry Kassar and Marty Golden. Seldom does one see such a blatant tipping of a hat as was shown in Mr. Hasty’s Brooklyn Eagle’s post-election coverage of the 2014 Elections ( See “Incumbents reign in Southwest Brooklyn, by Paula Katinas, 11/5/14, Brooklyn Daily Eagle [http://www.brooklyneagle.com/articles/2014/11/5/incumbents-reign-southwest-brooklyn]).<br />The picture that accompanied the richly symbolic article had this caption: “Assemblymember Nicole Malliotakis was among the incumbents cruising to victory in races in southwest Brooklyn. She is pictured with two of her key supporters, New York State Conservative Party Chairman Michael Long (left) and Brooklyn Conservative Party Chairman Gerard Kassar....” <br /><br />The words and pictures should be deeply troubling to Brooklyn Republicans. First, the picture is a “file photo” from October about a statewide ballot proposal concerning legislative paperwork; and it has no connection to any of what happened on Election Day 2014 in Southwest Brooklyn. Second, none of the people depicted in the photo are elected incumbent office holders from anywhere in Southwest Brooklyn [Malliotakis is from Staten Island and has represented only a shifting sliver of Brooklyn since 2011]. <br /><br />What gives ? It looks like spiking the ball and a victory lap by the Conservative Party and another kick in the pants to Brooklyn GOP Chairman Craig Eaton.Galewyn Masseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09210379476512207622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3872239785607728837.post-34035817969730563292014-11-12T00:25:34.676-05:002014-11-12T00:25:34.676-05:00The Owls Head wine Bar.
