There is only one Kings County Republican Chairman at a time -- right now that Chairman is Craig Eaton
Eaton's job is to do his best to reunify the Brooklyn GOP in advance of the 2014 elections --- everybody who persists in interfering needs to be outed and then booted
Needless to say achieving party unity would necessitate disposing of all the distractions that are hanging over from the aborted coup engineered by the faction that liked to refer to itself as the "Republicans for Change"; although "Republicans 100% for the State Senate Coalition" would have been a more accurate appellation for that group. In particular, that means getting rid of the ill-conceived and even more poorly executed lawsuit that only serves to give vain hope to the hopeless dead-enders.
Once that has been dealt with, Eaton needs to tamp down any budding insurgencies within his ruling caucus, applying the simple hard logic that everybody who benefitted from the alliance that put Eaton back in charge needs to follow his lead and stand fully behind his attempts to re-unify the party. It doesn't matter whether the rambunctious ones are primarily interested in running against this or that incumbent, or are currently not satisfied with each and every modifier to the title of their party position.
There is one and only one relevant negotiation in the offing. The war with State Senator Golden has to end with terms clearly indicative that Eaton and his supporters won. That must include, but not be limited to the following items: the immediate resignation of Commissioner Simon Shamoun from his post at the BOE for reasons that are obvious; and the complete shakeup of State Senator Golden's staff to reflect the primacy of the Kings County Republican Party as the engine that elects Brooklyn's only Republican official.
Once that is accomplished, unity behind our 2014 Republican candidates will not only be possible, it will be a reality.
Now, Craig let's start with that list...
I personally have known Craig for over 10 years and I have known Marty for just as long - this whole situation between the two of them has to cease. Marty made a move to better himself - well, it failed. Also, his attempt to slander and defame Craig was a very scummy move. I am no longer friends with Marty because of what he did to Craig, and someone must take him out in 2014 - Craig, make the right moves - I, along with many Brooklyn Republicans, are behind you and will help to take Marty out of his current seat. We need our Republican Party back! (Marty, go to hell)
ReplyDeleteSenator Golden will be on the democrat and republican lines in 2014.
ReplyDeleteSeddio counts, Eaton does not.
Great ! He'll lose two primaries instead of one. Then he can run in November only on the Conservative Party line. OHOHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! With Carl Paladino at the top of his ticket AHHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!! Great plan, you got to love it. TEEHEEHEEHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Now stop, please. UNGHKUNGHK-HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Really, stop, with this Marty Golden asState Senator for life, and as a Democratic candidate WEEEEZWEEEZHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
DeleteWhere's my inhaler ?
your plan won't work. eaton's side is full of problems. if he makes any list, everybodies' name will be onit. neither side can clean house and have anybody left. if all the disloyal leaders got together than they would have the majority.
ReplyDeleteYour right. Craig Eaton is no Fred Panteleone
ReplyDeleteFred Pantaleone wishes he could be Craig Eaton.
ReplyDeleteGale, your blog has gone from being anti-Golden and anti-Eaton, to just anti-Golden, and now you have become pro-Eaton and anti-Golden. What gives?
ReplyDeleteIs that how it seems ?
DeleteJes, tryin' t' keep y'all guessin'; I s'pose....
Ed Sergy wishes he could be Craig Eaton
ReplyDeleteRemember these "good ol' days?"

Good times, good times !
DeleteNow, Jonathan J has decided to line up with State Senator Golden, Diane Rudiano and company.
Funny how things turn out...
Those arent so long ago good old days that Golden had a deal with Vito Lopez for a democrat to take the fall. The difference between Vito and Seddio is . . . I dont know what the difference is.
ReplyDeleteSeddio is giving the line to Marty.
If there is so much sentiment against Marty he should be getting 3 primaries.
Rep, Dem, Con.
That'll mean you'll have to leave your computers.
Then-now, actions-reactions, Marty initiates - Craig responds, Craig initiates - others respond, Gallo initiates and everybody has to respond.
DeleteSome will be responding and then checking their computers; others will be responding at their computers.... many will stand and wait.
Sounds like Marty is cruising to re-election unopposed.
ReplyDeleteSenator for life.
Get used to the sound of that losers !!!
Marty Golden, State Senator for what's left of the life of a Great Dane, like Hamlet.
Delete"Sounds like Marty is cruising..." That really is news.
DeleteWhere and how can you be sure that it was Marty Golden?
Let's start the list here. Who hasn't been nice?
ReplyDeleteMarty Golden - but thats because he is bitter that he is too soft to be a police office, too dumb to be a state senator and too fat and old to do anything else.
ReplyDeleteGoldens not fat
ReplyDeleteYou must be one of Marty's cruisees.
DeleteYou must think he's a real stud muffin, don't you?
Jeez Louise !!!
ReplyDeleteI agreed with 7:08 posting that Marty is a bitter soft broken down cop and dummy Senator, but not fat.
Do I have to look out my window to see if the Gale Squd is surrounding the compound?
2014 is just around the corner.
ReplyDeleteIt will be the year Marty finally gets the Golden shower
Yuk, let's say he'll get the "Golden Sombrero" instead
