What if they threw an election and nobody came out to vote ???
Now, THAT would be news.....
In spite of all the effort and resources expended, lots of it "Matching Funds" from the municipal fisc, this special election means next to nothing --- it's probably somebody's idea for a joke, since petitioning for the very same office to get onto the ballot again in the 2019 election cycle begins on the same day as this special election, or as some people might refer to it >>> TODAY
As for all of the hoop-tee-do about Eric Ulrich --- give me a break --- the guy is all hat and no cattle --- or as an old Times Square publican used to say about various gentlemen, "He's nothin' but a hunk o' hat....."
Hey, do what ever you want --- I won't call you a fool in public if you vote today --- but it's what I'll be thinking. And you can take that to the bank.
After the results are in later and Ulrich loses, we should be ready for some reports of a late night by Liam McCabe at the Kettle Black or Salty Dog if you know what I mean
ReplyDeleteMaybe peeing on somebody's rug is a sign of political protest comparable to not voting in a special election for that same person.
ReplyDeleteI think getting a robocall from Marty Golden telling me to vote Ulrich is the same as Golden coming into MY home and peeing on MY rug.
ReplyDeleteI think somebody else is right. Just don't vote.
UPDATE & BACKFILL: THE "POSSIBILITY OF SPREADING THE "JUST DON'T VOTE' MESSAGE A LITTLE FURTHER" EDITION
ReplyDeleteNICOLE MALLIOTAKIS IS WELL ON HER WAY TO GETTING ON MY "JUST DON'T VOTE" LIST
SHE SEEMS TO BE PLEASED AS PUNCH TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED NEXT TO JERRY KASSAR IN HIS NEW ROLE AS THE STATE-WIDE CHAIRMAN OF THE CONSERVATIVE PARTY NEWLY-SELECTED UNANIMOUSLY BY THAT PARTY'S POLITBURO IN THE UPSTAIRS ANNEX TO A FRUIT AND VEGETABLE MARKET
Nicole is such a slut, cozying up to Kassar is just the wrong thing to do at this time.
Hmmmmm ! Mee-mee-mee-mee-mee !!! Just getting my throat ready to lead the chant --- "JUST DON'T VOTE FOR NICOLE -- THERE ARE OTHER REPUBLICANS"
If you feel really bad for Golden being out of work, and don't like Ulrich, do what I did: write-in Marty Golden.
ReplyDeleteOr do what I did, and Write In Liam.
ReplyDeleteGM everybody talks a lot of smack against Jerry behind his back and then bow whenever he is around. I mean dramatic boot licking. Joe Borelli and or Michael Grimm and others would love to have his support. I think too many are focused on perceptions about who is close to whom and how much. Most of it is perception and several local hacks have keyed in on this and claim to be close to all the various players. Yes she is close to Jerry but she is close to a couple of other people no one has ever heard of. And anyone who knows her also knows being "close" to her does not exactly confer any power. Let's just focus on who is the strongest candidate to take back the seat from Max.
ReplyDeleteRESPONSE: THE "I DON'T THINK YOU ARE BEING AN 'HONEST BROKER' HERE" EDITION
ReplyDeleteTO: "ANONYMOUS SAID... AT 9:25 AM"
I HOPE YOU WEREN'T REFERRING TO ME AS ONE OF THOSE "SEVERAL LOCAL HACKS" --- FIRST, I'M NO LONGER VERY LOCAL (I'M QUITE EXPRESS, ACTUALLY [SEE WHAT I DID THERE ?]); SECOND, I ONLY ASPIRED TO BEING A "HACK" AND NEVER SUCCEEDED IN GETTING THERE.....
IT'S NOT FAIR TO NEGATIVELY REFER TO THOSE WHO "TALK A LOT OF SMACK AGAINST JERRY BEHIND HIS BACK" --- HE HAS A VERY BIG BACK --- AND AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT MANY PEOPLE ARE IN THE UMBRA CREATED BY THE DARK SIDE OF JERRY KASSAR --- AND I CAN'T EVEN COUNT ALL THE PEOPLE IN THE PENUMBRA CAST BY MR. KASSAR WHEN THE SUN SHINES ON HIS BIG FACE AND MASSIVE BODY --- BUT I MUST SAY THIS WHEN YOU LOOK AT HIM HEAD-ON YOU NOTICE HIS BEAUTIFUL HAIR AND WONDERFUL EYES; AND THEN I CAN'T SAY ANYTHING BAD TO THE BIG LUG; MAYBE HE HAS THAT EFFECT ON EVERYBODY
As for Nicole's part in this, I just don't have a taste for her style of Greek Salad and Cuban Sandwich when it's being served by the new Lebanese boss of the joint over the fruit and vegetable stand.
No one was referring to you about being a hack GM. No one knows who you are close to for sure and you don't name drop like a some of the locals. The point is a lot of people talk smack about Jerry behind his back and trip over each other to say hello to him when he enters a room. So many people claim to be close to Nicole and speak with her a couple of times a year mainly about the weather. Nothing wrong with that I guess, but she is a lot more independent than many people know. And there are more "servers" than people would think. Jerry and all servers often get frustrated that she insists on doing the "serving" herself.
ReplyDeleteI would like to support Nicole but everyone and their mother knows Malliotakis can't mumble a word or make a move without checking with Kassar..this Brooklyn Republican and their family will be voting in the congressional primary for Anybody But Kassar (I mean Malliotakis)
ReplyDeleteJumaaaane for Mayor
ReplyDeleteGet used to it !!!
As mostly everyone predicted, Ulrich lost tonight.
ReplyDeleteThe results are in..as said here several times, Ulrich lost the race and lost Brooklyn
ReplyDeleteLiam will continue answering phones at TLC ..and lose yet again..this guy is like 0 for 6 in last 2 years
