Friends, I have recently been thinking about this whole mayoral control conundrum. As interesting as I’ve found it that Mayor Duffy, David Gantt and Joe Morelle were able to agree on a mutual plan to reward their supporters and create a whole new level of patronage; the fact that the unions have vowed to withhold [...]

I’ve been meaning to get to this — Democrat Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi is behind in his re-election  – a race he was expected to win big. He is currently trailing his Republican opponent by 390 votes out of 250,000 cast.

I’m thinking about opening a political consulting business — Cincinnatus & Associates.  I saw mustardstreet had a link to a City News piece pointing out the problems of local Democrats being tied to Sheldon Silver and the dysfunction of Albany.
It seemed to me that I’d seen someone else make that point.  Let’s see who was [...]

Unable to find real people to back up their charges, Monroe County Democrats actually sent out mailings using stock photos available on the internet and claimed they were real Monroe County Republicans fed up with the local GOP.

I’ve never been a big fan of Ren Square.  But I have to give credit to County Executive Maggie Brooks for her vision on this project.  I think her support was well intentioned — revitalize a blighted area with a project that should help spur economic development.

Those must be some really messed up cats if Joe Morelle’s staying away.
Liz Benjamin reported yesterday that Governor Paterson asked Monroe County’s very own Joe “the Cat Whisperer” Morelle to be state party chairman.  For those new to monroerising.com, we call Morelle the Cat Whisperer because of his success in managing the local Democratic Party.  [...]

I’m not sure what is more outrageous.  County Democrats having disgraced former County Finance Director Paul Haney be their point person on budget matters, or County Republican’s failure to slap him down every time he opens his mouth.
