Bruno loosing his grip-slip, sliding away
After Tuesday’s special election in NY’s 48th, Albany’s, Three Men in a Room becomes Two and a Half Men in a Room. From Rising Hegemon:
NYT:
In a major victory for Gov. Eliot Spitzer and his party, a Democratic assemblyman won a stunning upset in a State Senate election on Tuesday in a district that has been in Republican hands for a century.
The win reduces the Republicans’ majority to one seat and will intensify pressure on the majority leader, Joseph L. Bruno, as he tries to maintain his party’s grip on the Senate, which it has controlled for more than 40 years.
That’s five pieces of great news in two short paragraphs: (1) Spitzy wins; (2) Democratic upset (although The Albany Project says it doesn’t really qualify as an upset); (3) 100+ year Republican district goes Dem; (4) Republican majority reduced to one; (5) Bruno under pressure.
I’m thinking about having a party.
Invite me! I’ll BYOB!
Maybe we can hold a fundraiser so that Steve-Oh Minarik can update that CHEEZY monroegop.com website of his so that Tracy Logel’s name can be removed from the list of elected officials, along with David Bonacchi - the now DEFUNCT Mayor of East Rochester, amongst others…
Wubba mabba Steve-Oh? Can’t afford the webwork these days? Things looking a little grim? Just keeping those names up for the sake of having CONTENT on your site? Living in the past? Trying to convince the public that they still exist? Is your denial so DEEP you just can’t muster the courage to remove the names and admit your DEFEAT?
Or perhaps you’re just trying to save money by waiting to consolidate all of those changes when you have to remove the name of BUSH, REYNOLDS, KUHL, BRUNO, ALESI, ROBACH, REILICH, and just so many others, that my head spins when I think about it.
That’s our boy STEVE-OH - a true “Friend of Maggie” - saving those nickels and dimes!
LOSER!
Maybe you’ve just been too busy in your “meetings” to think of such things!
