Yes, the time has come to torch this bunch of parvenue "consultants" who have turned their brand of political montbankerie into an art --- and fleeced quite a few naive and unsuspecting GOP victims in the process [they have felt free to try to invade my domain here on this blog --- so turn-about is fair play]
The principals, Liam McCabe, Robert Morgan, Alexandra Sherer, Nachman Mostofsky and Christine Sisto are all pretty well known to Brooklyn Republicans --- HOWEVER --- only one of them, Liam McCabe, actually is a Brooklyn Republican [and he only a recent and opportunistic convert to the fold; you see, he is a "recovering..." member of the Conservative Party]
So why all the consulting work for Brooklyn Republicans ? Don't YOU think that's a good question ??? What is their rather recent juice and cred with the Kings County GOP generally, and significant pockets within that so-called "county" organization, in particular ?????
Well listen my children, and you will hear...... Do duh name, Jazzy Kuhzah, mean sumptin to yuhz ???
Okay, how about Jerry Kassar ????? Yes, the once upon a time Chairman of the Kings County Conservative Party; oh, and don't forget soon to be ex-Chief-of-Staff to the soon to be ex-State Senator Martin J. Golden. You see Kassar has used his gunzels (love that word; and all that it means) from Steeplechase Strategies, Inc. to maintain his control over the Brooklyn GOP and most of its candidates ever since his "boss" Marty took over the Brooklyn GOP and installed Ted Ghorra as "Chairman."
All of this is pretty well known to most of the real Brooklyn Republicans, many of whom took a walk on the wild side in 2018, and decided to try "good government independence" for a change..... BYE-BYE MARTY..... BYE-BYE DANNY BOY..... (Everybody knows what you do with used-up scumbags --- you just give them the "deep six".....)
WHAT TO DO ABOUT STEEPLECHASE STRATEGIES INC.
If anybody needs a pox on their houses it's this crew.
They tout themselves as "Reliable"...... Christine's recent Al-Anon memo about Liam says it all on this subject..... But, if you focus on Bob and Allie, you'll see that they are even more of a "bag of glass" for the kids to play with. They have yet to find a campaign to which they can't bring their own special brand of FUBAR.....
After being underlings in a few campaigns here, there and god-knows-wherever, this crew of miscreants have fancied themselves "experts" on the following: "Direct Mail"; "Robo-calls & Surveys"; "Graphic Design"; "Web Design"; "Fund Raising"; and " Branding".....
Generally, just look at what this crew has done recently in Brooklyn: 2017 -- the primary campaign of Liam McCabe -- LOSS; 2018 -- the primary campaign of Michael Grimm -- LOSS: 2018 -- the general campaign of Steve Saperstein -- LOSS; 2018 -- the general election campaign of Marty Golden -- LOSS. Forget any of the subspecialties in those fiascos. [A real expert on these matters, with many Republican clients over the years, that I know pretty well tells me that their work in all these areas is worse than "sub-standard".....]
"Web Design" -- Whoa !!! What a joke --- just look at their own web page and look at "Testimonials"....... GIVE ME A BREAK !!! What a look..... What's with all that Latin ?????
And best of all "Branding"..... This from the crew that decided to re-brand the Metropolitan Republican Club into an "OPEN MIKE NIGHT FOR RIGHT WING HATERS CLUB" --- OR --- "THE PROUD BOYS VERY OWN METROPOLITAN REPUBLICAN CLUB".....
Actually with the exception of Jerry, it's about the most attention and publicity they're going to get.
ReplyDeleteThink about it, these people have been crushed in campaign after campaign and most people can’t stand them. No one on SI will deal with them, pretty soon they’ll be advertising in New Jersey.
ReplyDeleteI hear Andrea Cats saw this and totally agrees

ReplyDeleteRe: Team Steeplechase. This is littered with non truths. Just look at the campaign finance records. McCabe sold the company in 2017. In fact Mccabes top consultant was Gerry O'Brien... Steeplechase Strategies wasn't paid a dime. The company did not work for Saperstein this year nor Michael Grimm and the only work they did for Marty Golden in 2018 was for petitions. Again, look at the campaign finance filings.. this "voo doo" narrative about the folks associated with Steeplechase are based in non-truths and jealousy to the only folks that want to fight the uphill battle of getting Republicans elected in the Dark Blue City of New York. What gives with the hatred to this group from people who profess themselves to be Republicans?
ReplyDeleteI notice all of the deleted comments on the thread. Maybe if these trust fund babies had to work a couple of honest days in their lives they wouldn’t be nearly so nasty and obnoxious.
ReplyDeleteEaton is a coward..he doesn't have the balls to say he supported Andrew publicly ..sad
ReplyDeleteGo on Twitter and read how Saperstein is forced to admit he used Steeplechase. They may be able to gather a couple of petitions if a candidate is desperate will use them that’s all they’re decent for. They are toxic to campaigns.
ReplyDeleteWow
ReplyDeleteSaperstein admitted Steeple chase cost him the election.
SPECIAL NOTICE: THE "A COMPLAINT FROM SOMEBODY NO LONGER ASSOCIATED WITH STEEPLECHASE....." EDITION
ReplyDeleteYES, MY "HIT PIECE" ON STEEPLECHASE STRATEGIES, INC. DID ENGENDER A RESPONSE FROM A PERSON THAT I MIGHT HAVE WRONGLY REFERRED TO AS A "PRINCIPAL" OF THAT COMPANY --- LIAM MC CABE
During a lengthy phone call, Mr. McCabe had lots of complaints about my feature post above. For my part, I explained how I had sourced my material largely from the Steeplechase Strategies, Inc. web page and long-commented upon material on this blog. And as such, that's why I didn't think anything needed any "confirmation," as such.
Since much of Mr. McCabe's call dealt with what he called inaccuracies concerning Steeplechase Strategies, Inc., I agreed to revisit the material above after a long sit-down with him, which we agreed would take place some time after the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. Basically, Liam maintained that Steeplechase did not have a hand in any of the races that I had held up as "Losses"..... We'll leave it to a later date to see if I'm wrong, or whether he is just spitting hairs.
Meanwhile, my post above will stand as written --- after all, one can't un-ring a bell once it's been sounded anyway; and contrary corrective comments are always welcome here as part of the coin of the realm ( I believe at least one has been made already).
Thank you all for your interest in these and other related matters.
Gale..don't fall for it...if Liam , Morgan, and Alexandra were involved it WAS steeple chase ..however they "paid" them so it would look like it was not steeplechase (probably for tax fraud purposes)..
ReplyDeleteLiam C ant deny his role with Steeplechase..
Maybe, Liam, Rob, and Alexa can charge Craig Eaton rent for going around with his great big "Steeplechase Smile" since last Tuesday night.
ReplyDeleteForget all this BS politics. Why isn't there a popular strawberry soda?
ReplyDeleteCome on GM which Steeplechase is Saperstein referring to then on Twitter? I wouldn’t blame Liam if he wants to distance himself from these people as he probably realizes it was a mistake to partner with them. Guessing they’re blaming Liam for Saps defeat in case Jerry can’t find them they’re next failed assignment.
ReplyDeleteLiam may have 'technically' sold his share of the firm, but the last few months on social media makes it clear that he, his long-suffering fiance, and the east side psychos are all just peas in a pod.
ReplyDeleteReal question is what do these 'consultants' do? Liem's day job is driving a car, his fiance is a full time law school student, one of the psychos is an extra on a TV show about 42nd street hookers, and the other is a trust fund baby who works for RAC, the special olympics of legislative campaign committees in New York.
Who in their right mind would hire them? You get better odds at a homeless shelter with a stack of singles and a bottle of Night Train Express.
6: 50 they don’t need anyone in their “right minds” to hire them. They have Jerry who uses them to do his bidding in exchange for continuing to get them roles on campaigns. Eventually he’ll completley destroy any remaining viable seats and they’ll have to find another state to lose campaigns in.
ReplyDeleteSo Steeplechase was hired to get Golden signatures so he could get on the ballot. Golden got on the ballot.
ReplyDeleteGWM if the entire point of this story is false maybe consider something not false.
It’s funny how they are running away from their own once much vaunted company. Golden used them for petitioning courtesy of Jerry, then they got on the Saperstein campaign because of Jerry, once there they kicked Steve’s Bay Ridge guy out of the joint campaign office so they could assume a visible role in the Golden campaign. Eerily similar to the plot of a horror movie and unfortunately for Senator Golden, their arrival there sealed his fate.
ReplyDelete6:50 nailed it: they aren't a consulting firm, they're a collective train wreck.
ReplyDeletePS 207 in Marine Park is the polling place with Goldens strongest election districts. The scanners were broken for hours. Tomorrow begins the count. This blog may be a little quiet.

RESPONSE: THE "NO NEED TO BE SILENT" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "PRODITOR"
I FEEL YOUR ANGST AND ALIENATION --- ALWAYS REMEMBER THIS: "SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS"
Before the Civil War, Virginia was America --- it was only by Lincoln's slaughter of millions of Americans did Virginia stop being America.
The "Fugitive Slave Act" was passed into law in 1850 --- it was part of a North-South compromise at the time. That law was reaffirmed as the supreme law of the land by the U.S.Supreme Court in 1859 overruling a Wisconsin Law declaring it unenforceable in Wisconsin.
ReplyDeleteOnly wartime measures during the Civil War stopped its implementation --- with Gen. Benjamin Butler actually freeing "contraband" slaves as a way to weaken the South.
Yes, Virginia was America and there was no Santa Claus.
There is no magic cache of paper votes that can put Marty Golden over the top. The election night totals will be reflected in the BOE's recanvas of the vote which starts later this morning.
ReplyDeleteMarty was overrun throughout the whole of his district, and his very strong pockets were very small by comparison to the size of Gounardes' strong pockets.
I hear some local reporter's lives this post exposing Liams losing record
ReplyDeleteHow is one of the psychos an extra on TV?
ReplyDeleteYou'd think the Hollywood libtards would refuse to hire a Republican. DOn;t they know?
Local Republican Party is hollowed out and smoked but Liam is focused on his reputation and the reputation of his loser "firm" which reads more like a ragtag group of mutants that Stan Lee nixed.
ReplyDeleteBased on the fiance's rants, it doesn't sound that "firm" these days.
ReplyDeleteBrooklyn GOP has been wrecked by ego maniac Jerry. He has to have his tentacles in every decision. While every other campaign in the city refused to hire the psychos he insisted they play important roles in Brooklyn, I don’t care how many votes the scanners in Marine Park come up, I hope Marty wins and has the good sense to
ReplyDeletesend Jerry and the psychos packing.
The New York State and Brooklyn GOP have to axe the NYS Conservative Party completely and absolutely. The fifty year association with the Conservatives started with the Republicans in complete power in New York with a governor, two senators and a mayor of NYC, and has resulted in the current state of complete oblivion for the GOP. The New York Conservatives are not a party, they are a fatal disease.
ReplyDeleteNote: in the history of New York State, only one Republican endorsed by the Conservative party has ever been elected Governor.
ReplyDeleteGail, don't blame the Kings County Conservatives. Kassar and Fran think that Liam is a loose cannon with a few loose parts.
ReplyDeleteGetting Liam out of their party before he self destructed, and before Jerry stepped down, was a major coup for them.
Note in the history of New York City, NO Republican endorsed by the Conservative party has ever been elected Mayor. Three Republicans have been elected Mayor of New York City WITHOUT having the Conservative party behind them, sometimes even having Conservative candidates run against them.
ReplyDeleteThe Conservatives blaming Liam is rich indeed. Dovetails nicely with rumors that Manhattan couple trying to distance themselves from Liam and blame him for another string of crushing defeats. Let’s put aside the fake news though, Liam was basically the only normal approachable functioning operative they had. Jerry now desperate to repair relationship with Liam he’s making all sorts of gestures to get him back on his side. Jerry didn’t step aside he was told to step aside and he probably wouldn’t even be Marty’s Chief of Staff had Golden won. He’s despised in and out of conservative and GOP circles in Brooklyn, if Liam doesn’t come to his rescue, all Jerry has left is Ted and the psychos. Jerry wishes Liam would come back to him.
ReplyDeleteNick Chamberas, Bob Capano, and Craig Eaton all have good jobs in the private sector whose lives d ont depend on politics yet they have great influence.
ReplyDeleteThat's the difference between them and the psychos, Kassaw, Quaglione, Kepi , McCabe, etc
7:32 Hi Justin. Nobody cares what you think of people in the Republican Party in Brooklyn. All of the people you mentioned in your post seem like decent folks and have far better things to do than take the bait.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDelete8:18 is off on several points. Liam is a lot nicer than the girlfriend. Jerry needs Liam now, not the other way around.
ReplyDeleteAs her rants and episode at Cebu show,Christine fits right in with the upper East side psychos
ReplyDeleteoh boy
ReplyDeleteMore and more Republican leaders especially in northern and central bklyn have been briefed on Liam and they will not be supporting him for anything..
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by a blog administrator.
ReplyDeleteThere aren't any real Republican "leaders" in Northern and Central Brooklyn.
ReplyDeleteThere are Republican leaders?
ReplyDeleteCome on folks, everyone knows Liam and Friends are fine for lit drops and petitioning and lawn sign deployment. Street stuff. That is all.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing they have any business doing is petitioning for third parties. Pretty much horrible for everything else.
ReplyDelete2:33, why do you say that? If you can petition, you can petition. Should not be a difference in the quality between different party petitions.
ReplyDeleteWas hoping Jerry would move to Florida but worried he may screw the pooch on the President's Re-elect!!!
ReplyDeleteI hear some Staten Island and Bay Ridge Republicans are planning to protest outside Liams next Verrazano Rep Club meetinf with Eric Ulrich as guest speaker.
ReplyDeleteThink about how screwed up this is, Liam , who claims to be the new GOP king maker and the Verrazano Republican Club is hosting Eric Ulrich, who is running for Public Advocate and is a Republican supported that Bozo Bo Dietle over the GOP candidate for Mayor last year Nicole Malliotakis. Liam, and Ulrich will have a lot of explaining to do..
I hear that Golden is almost done. He only gained a few votes after the scanner were read and the emergency ballots were counted.
ReplyDeletePoor Marty Golden. Will have to accept defeat soon.
Karma is a bitch!
When the final numbers are in, Democrat Andrew Gounardes will be the State Senator Elect from Marty Golden's very own and very custom-cut State Senate District. It took real hard work for Marty to lose his own specially-cut seat, but Marty did almost everything that he could to lose it and he succeeded in the end.
ReplyDeleteMarty lost thanks to Jerry and the crew he assembled. It’s that simple. He has never won a competitive race and had wrecked countless other campaigns that should have been able to compete. With him everything is about absolute power and intimidation the results almost don’t matter at all as long as he in charge. Just ask Saperstein.
ReplyDeleteIf only Nicole was smart enough to learn from Marty...if only she could be smarter and realize that Jerry, Leticia, Golden and their crew are evil
ReplyDeleteOnly one person is responsible for Marty losing: Marty Golden.
ReplyDeleteHe stopped taking advice from people with experience.
He started throwing his weight around.
He got cocky.
And just this year alone, he inflicted more damage on himself with bad news stories than most pols do in a lifetime.
Attaboy, "Senator."
Marty delivered a lot of money to this district and started off with a huge lead in the polls. He let Jerry assemble a highly paid crew of incompetents who never had a grasp of social media and modern day messaging. Instead of Jerry stepping back and letting Marty bring in professionals he let Jerry keep bringing in his hacks which alienated everyone even further. Marty’s campaign decided to spend the last weekend before the election accusing Gounardes of possibly making it easier for voters to become victims of burglary. This is what they led with on social media.
ReplyDeleteFor Golden it was the karma of a boomerang and backfire campaign all through 2018. It was a long time building to a critical mass, but finally ignited near the end of the campaign.
ReplyDeleteFor years, Marty Golden cast his lot completely with the Conservatives led in Brooklyn by Kassar and screwed the Republicans at every turn. In the end, there was no Brooklyn GOP left to fall back on, and Ghorra was left holding the bag. Instead of GOP volunteers, in the end Kassar had to bring in Liam and his Steeplechase crowd.
There's a picture going around that tells the whole back story. It's of Marty Golden at the Manor talking to Mike Long on Election Night. That snapshot was like a vignette of Faust talking to Mefistofeles. Mike is probably telling Marty, "Well kid, it's time for you to go to hell, it was part of your deal all along."
11:16 so profound.
ReplyDeleteGhorra could care less
Malliotakis pissed at Liam for inviting Eric Ulrich to his rep club meeting this month. A Republican "leader" inviting Ulrich , who supported bozo Bo Dietle over the Republican candidate for Mayor (malliotakis) last year. Ulrich portrays himself as the only Republican in Public Advocate race and Mr. Republican writing oP ed on how to improve GOP bit didn't support his own nominee for Mayor but now expects Republicans to rally around him for Public advocate. Liam has a lot of answering to do, and I hear a contingent of Staten Island and Bay Ridge Republicans will be outside the meeting protesting Ulrich and Liam for inviting him..this should be fun
ReplyDeleteUlrich and Malliotakis have a lot in common. Probably explains why they don't get along.
ReplyDeleteNick- get off this blog.
ReplyDeleteT he big open secret is that Nicole humors you but when it comes to real decisions, she listens to others
5:05 you might be on to something. It’s hard to figure out who Nicole listens to though, it can’t be Jerry because she won, and it can’t be Rob and Alex because she didn’t lose by at least forty points.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think anyone from Nicole’s team organizing boycott as they seem to get along with Liam—that said it’ll be interesting to see who shows up to support Ulrich and still pretends to be Nicole’s friend.
ReplyDeleteThere is no hope for any future for a Republican Party in Brooklyn from any of these people: Nicole Malliotakis, Eric Ulrich, Liam McCabe or anybody associated with Steeplechase Strategies, John Quaglione, Bob Capano, Ted Ghorra, Craig Eaton, Jerry Kassar, Gerry O'Brien, Anthony Testaverde, Nachman Caller, David Storobin, Russell Gallo, Gene Berardelli, Arnaldo Ferraro, Lucretia Potter, and more than anybody else Marty Golden.
ReplyDeleteThere is only one guy that needs to figure things out on his own and decide if he wants to lead the Brooklyn GOP into the future; and that is Steve Saperstein. He has worked with the few new active Brooklyn Republicans not named above and some are even in his in his circle. He even put a significant pocket of support together in the 46th AD, out in Manhattan and Brighton Beaches.
7:57 The wannabe "hotshots" from the Saperstein campaign need to sit down, be quiet, and listen. Steve is a smart dynamic guy who had the wrong team. He has a lot of catching up to do with all of the names you listed. A Russian Jewish candidate running against a Black candidate with no money, who is bragging about doing well in Brighton Beach is not going to impress anyone outside the campaign. People on Steve's campaign who were calling the shots should have been interns who were listening to seasoned professionals and being mentored by them.
ReplyDeleteThere is no sugarcoating it. Steve disappointed in his loss to Deutsch and he shockingly disappointed against Mathylde Frontus, it is not a personal reflection on Steve and I think he has a bright future but it hardly makes the argument that Steve is ready for prime time.
When it comes to politics , Nick Chamberas is an amateur compared to Kassar and Morgan, and Malliotakis knows it and admitted as much to them
ReplyDeleteAnonymous at 7:57 seems like they have a grudge axe to grind against anyone who has ever been involved in GOP politics in Brooklyn. I don't think it's Steve but it sounds so bitter angry and miserable that Steve would do well to disassociate himself from these triggered loose cannons.
ReplyDelete826 - Who cares, Nick is the kind of person the Republicans need. The others are irrelevant to what needs to be re-built.
ReplyDeleteBesides, Nicole's best days are behind her, and they weren't so great to start with. Bring back Janelle as a Republican, she still has some juice. Even with her "Shelley" history, she'd kick Nicole's ass in a GOP primary, because Nicole is the "Odd Man Out" in Staten Island politics.
Stranger things have happened. Call Janelle, see if she's interested.
836, 'triggered loose cannons'! Do you even know the meaning and significance of the term 'loose cannon'? Loose cannons can't be 'triggered'; they are untethered and knocking around on a gun deck, usually during a storm. They need to be lashed down before they cause serious damage, even death and destruction; but 'triggered' never.
ReplyDeleteKing Marty of Bay Ridge has just expired at long last.
ReplyDeleteJustin is the King.
Long live the King.
I don’t know why everyone on this blog keeps sweating Malliotakis. She’s an Assembly backbencher with no power.
ReplyDelete8:26 yes when it comes to the politics of losing, Nick Chambers is definitely a rank amateur compared to Jerry and Rob. Few people in the world of politics are experts at losing winnable elections like Jerry and Rob. This is true.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "LET'S SEE IF THERE ARE ANY SURVIVORS, FIRST" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO MANY, IF NOT ALL, OF THE RECENT COMMENTERS ABOVE
AS A LONG-TIME BAY RIDGE REPUBLICAN GUY AND A BRAND NEW STATEN ISLANDER, I'M STILL CAUGHT BETWEEN TWO WORLDS JOINED BY A BRIDGE WITH A BRAND NEW "Z" IN ITS NAME --- BTW, HOW LONG AND HOW MUCH $$$$$ TO CHANGE THE SIGNAGE ???
ONE THING THAT I DO KNOW IS THAT THE BROOKLYN GOP IS A SHAMBLES AND THERE IS CARNAGE IN ALL DIRECTIONS --- BUT I'M SURE THAT IN THE RUBBLE THERE HAVE TO BE SOME SURVIVORS THAT WILL COME BACK AND FIGHT ANOTHER DAY --- INCLUDING MANY WHOSE NAMES ARE ON THE LIST BY "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 7:57 AM"
[I don't think that person ("... at 7:57 AM) is "bitter" at all; it's one of my regular BSIs; to me, they seem euphoric and victorious, and they are doing their version of an "end zone dance"]
Let's get down to it. The smoke and dust hasn't cleared yet. There will be many Brooklyn GOP types (not all of them in the GOP and not all of them in Brooklyn) that decide they still want to be part of something going forward in what used to be "Republican Brooklyn" (yes, it is-and-always-was an oxymoron).
Nonetheless, not everybody from the past will be going forward for a variety of reasons. Let's wait a little while, maybe into the 2018 holiday season; talk things over in our little klatches; see who are among the walking wounded, and those who need intensive care, and yes, even see who needs a tag on their toe.....
Something will rise up from the ashes. But it might be closer to an over-cooked free-range chicken than any mythical Phoenix.....
Kassar and Morgan are the bosses of Bay Ridge
ReplyDelete7:57 is a bitter fellow who worked on Steve's campaigns, and needs to take his meds.
ReplyDeleteIn the past he's posted sheer nonsense. Today he just listed a group of names and ranted.
Neither wins elections or builds a political organization.
Martys recount is awfully quiet.
ReplyDeleteNicole may be a "backbencher" but she is all we got.
ReplyDeleteAnd Nicole is the only credible candidate to take out Max Nose
11:14 there will be plenty of candidates seeking the congressional seat in a couple of years. Mike Grimm is probably running as is probably Joe Borelli, and probably one or two others besides Nicole. I would not be surprised if Jerry is busy making an exclusive deal of support with each one. After he totally played her in 2014 and she still takes marching orders from him, anyone relying on a Nicole run would be foolish.
ReplyDeleteNone of those "candidates" is a cinch to win a Republican primary. More important, none is going to beat Maxie the Congressman.
ReplyDeleteIn 2018 Max Rose beat an incumbent Republican, in 2020, Max will be an incumbent Democrat.
Watch the Conservative Party in this congressional district; they have screwed the pooch before and they can do it again.
Mike Long is the "Prince of Darkness" going around the world seeking the destruction of souls.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of what faction you support, the downfall started when groups from Staten Island and Brooklyn got together to take away the nomination from Nicole Malliotakis for the special congressional election in 2015. The only person who legitimately and loudly supported Nicole back then was Craig Eaton. Jerry pulled off his usual behind the scenes deal, and if anyone doubts it remember that while the stafffing of the Donovan SI office changed dramatically, the Brooklyn office did not have even one change. It was still staffed by the all of the same people who were with Grimm members of the Kings County conservative.
ReplyDeleteSometimes the people on this blog still astound me.
ReplyDeleteLove him or hate him, Kassar was very much in Nicole's corner when she sought the congressional nomination.
1:46 more fake news. Kassar was so much in Nicole’s corner that Marty Golden was the first elected to endorse Dan Donovan even though he shared an office with Nicole. He was so much in Nicole’s corner Mike Long called her and told her to give up. Nobody is arguing with how how close they are that is a fact not worth disputing but deep down even she knows Craig Eaton was the only Chairman ever fighting for her. Oh almost forgot, Donovan replaced almost everyone in Staten Island Office but kept all the Brooklyn Conservatives because “love him or hate him” Jerry was the only one who “fought” for Nicole. Ahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteMy source says there are about 2,200 absentee ballots that still need to be sorted out and Andrew starts the day up by around 1,050 votes. Do your math. Marty is done for. It's All Over But The Crying. Talk about a tough time for Liam to be trying to get a new Republican Club off the ground
ReplyDeleteLiam getting a Reublican club going by having Eric Ulrich as guest speaker that didn't support the GOP nominee for Mayor last year
ReplyDeleteI don’t really think we should have a problem with Liam organizing the event. He is close to Ulrich and trying to boost his career. My problem is anyone who goes to that event and then acts like they’re friends with Malliotakis. Ulrich did horrible stuff against her in the Mayoral campaign some claiming he went so far as to depose Queens Chair Bob Turner and going after senior staff of her Mayoral campaign. In my personal opinion Ulrich is an irrelevant buffoon desperate for attention. We should ignore him and not show up for his appearance.
ReplyDeleteLiam McCabe started his brand new "Republican Club" out of nothing and for no good reason in the middle of tough campaigns for Saperstein, Golden and Donovan. It is going nowhere, because McCabe isn't a real Republican, he is a long-time Kings County Conservative in sheep's clothing. Ulrich isn't even from Brooklyn, so how can he help Liam or his club.
ReplyDeleteOne day Liam, the Conservative, woke up and thought, "I can stay a follower in the Conservative Party or be a leading candidate and/or a boss in the Republican Party." So he
switched into being a "Republican," just like that. Then he didn't try to work his way up in any existing club, instead he immediately launched his own campaign for City Council.
Can anybody name any long-time Republican or Conservative operative that likes and trusts Liam, and is willing to vouch that he is a dependable candidate, consultant or operative of any kind.
Liam doesn’t need anyone to vouch for him. Ted has his back and so does Jerry. If we learned one thing this past election it’s that for GOP campaigns all that’s important is who you know not what you know.
ReplyDeleteLiam doesn't need anybody to vouch for him!
ReplyDeleteHe needs to read the poem about "No man is an island..."
As for Jerry and Ted having Liam's back, guess where some of the sharpest silverware came from.
A couple of people have said that psychos now turning on Liam to save themselves blaming him for Saperstein defeat. Reality far different of course.
ReplyDelete
