The 1920s had the Great Gatsby --- 2020s have the great Craig Eaton


Just a few pix courtesy of Conservative Party honcho Jim Kelly  ---  and a very important one from Diana and Russ Gallo  ---  of the last real GOP leader in Brooklyn.....


... Taken at the annual Craig Eaton BBQ at Eaton's very significant waterfront manse on LBI, at the NJ shorefront















                     





                                                 

                     

                                           

                                            


                                                                   


 




















And this group shot of a bunch of Eaton's GOP "old hands"  ---   especially presented by Diana Gallo next to hubby Russ Gallo, next to Craig, etc., etc., etc......




Maybe the old adage  ---  "living well is the best revenge"  has something to it....

With Eaton's strong refusal to come back and pick up all the broken pieces of the Brooklyn GOP; and clean up the mess made in Southwest Brooklyn by Golden, Ghorra, Kassar and Fran, the most important man IN and FOR the Brooklyn Republican Party is Justin Brannan, the Boss of Bay Ridge, who will soon be crowned the Boss of Bay Ridge, Bath Beach, Bensonhurst, Graves End, and Coney Island.

The only thing larger than Kassar's ego is Fran's afro. The Clueless Cons are going full kamikaze in a mutually assured destruction mission aimed to take out Ted the Dummy at the knees. Only problem is that in the process the Clueless Cons (Fran and Kassar) colateral damage will deliver the new Asian council seat on a silver platter to a Democrat named Zang while slicing and dicing the rest of Dyker Heights up and over into a zillion pieces that for the next 20 years will be represented by a Sunset Park socialist by the name of Avelez!

And you knew who you were then...
Girls were girls and men were men...
Mister, we could use a man like Craig Eaton again!

Craig Eaton and Gatsby. Of course.

Eaton would have as much success as his guy Avery if he tried to beat Ghorra..

Eaton and Pereira did what they needed to in 2023 in order to show the people that count in the NYC & NYC GOP that their long game is in place and ready to go. Now that's especially true because the Brooklyn part of the Malliotakis district will soon look like the Gounardes district and the Staten Island part will look like the Scarcella-Spanton district; meaning Nicole would probably rather run in the district where the South Staten Island part gets attached to some of the State Senate District of Iwen Chu in Brooklyn and some of Park Slope.

INTERESTING STUFF: THE "JERRY KASSAR ASSERTION" EDITION

IN A RECENT EXCHANGE OF E-MAILS NYS CON-CON CHAIRMAN KASSAR EMPHATICALLY POINTED OUT SOMETHING TO A TOP LOCAL DEMOCRAT IN BROOKLYN THAT TOO MANY BROOKLYN REPUBLICANS SEEM TO FORGET OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER AGAIN.....

Dem leader in a jibe at Kassar: "Running a spoiler [Vito LaBella] to hand a victory to [the Democrats].... Masterful !"

Kassar's response: "... We are not the gop... Never forget it..."

Then the Democrat leader told Kassar that when the Democrats win in November he would be sure to give Kassar and Fran the credit; to which Kassar answered with a real non sequitor about the Dems sounding afraid of the Conservatives; to which the Dem replied, "... just appreciative."

Dont worry Ted, I have it on good authority that Craig will never run again. Why should he? He left on his own terms and is now living the life that most only dream of. Luxury homes, Boats (did you see that Boat in the photo-wow), Jetskis, classic cars. Why would he ever want to deal with scumbags like Kassar, Ghorra, Fran and the other losers in Brooklyn politics today? But in Brooklyn we do need new leadership and I truly hope someone steps in. And, hey, maybe Craig would do a fundraiser for you at one of his mansions.

135, let me explain it to you, because you obviously don't understand politics 101.

The point of the Pereira for City Council exercise was to oppose Ari Kagan and his supporters and make them work to secure the GOP line. The succeeded in that; and they showed that they could master the nuts'n'bolts of getting onto the ballot even with the GOP orgnization being against them.

You mean just like Anna Delfaus did & got more votes than avery...LOL

851, keep laughing. That means Craig and Avery had an operation equivalent to that of Inna V. and Anna BD. Combined, two insurgencies showed that 25% pf Republicans opposed the Kassar-Ghorra cabal's backing of the opportunist DEmocrat Ari Kagan.

Craig has done well for Craig.

Ted has done well for the GOP.

Q: Why did Ari Kagan had a stuning victory

A: Because Craig spent his time on the jersey shore

Yeah yeah yeah the again "long term" Eaton plan..we heard it all before..he is a mover and shaker but loses races bad.

Everybody is focusing on the wrong thing. Avery Pereira always said he intended to run a grass-roots campaign from the bottom up. That means strictly retail campaigning and getting out to the people personally.

By getting on the ballaot and getting around 500 voters in the primary to vote for a virtual unknown is an overwhelming success, especially by the one candidate who had by far the very fewest resources with which to run a primaary to run.

Your kidding right? By that logic Lucretia is a political mastermind with all her times getting on the ballot and getting 500 votes. But if Eaton and Avery want tp be conpared tp lucretia, have at ot..lol

809, since we were talking about Avery Pereira, being compaired to Lucretia Regina-Potter is quite significant an accopmplishment for the young man. We all know that Lucretia is one of the biggest success stories and survivors with longstanding associations and influence in the Brooklyn GOP --- has stood up against Kassar and Golden for more than twenty years, she has has opposed and then been with Eaton until he turned over the Brooklyn GOP to her mentor Arnaldo Ferrara, she supports and is supported by her 46th district's GOP Assemblyman Alec Brook-Krassny, she succeeded in blocking Vito LaBella's obtaing the GOP line, she openly opposed the nomination and electionof Ari Kagan, and is now predicting openly that he will lose in November, and might very well be quietly working for who she's sees as the best candidate for Republicans in the 47th Council District against the still very poorly vetted turncoat Democrat supported by Kassar and Fran. And also showing some very notable personal skills and political maneuverability, she has opposed and been with Ted Ghorra and is now a key part of the coalition keeping him in power for now, all while not supporting very much if any of the Kassar parts of the Ghorra agenda.

Pereira would do well to emulate Lucretia and nore openly align with her, especially since people like you are already making comparisons about him and her.

Don’t forget that Lucretia managed Brook-Krasny’s campaign and won in spite of the Brooklyn GOP, unlike some other grifter campaign managers out there today.

Yes Eaton and Lucretia are of equal stature
