Wacko Walter: Hahn Paid GOP
In the latest twist in the Mayoral race, Walter Moore - the self described only Republican to run for Mayor (other than Billy Wyatt) who gained enough votes to probably deny Bob Hertzberg a runoff berth and keep Jim Hahn alive - has left the Republican party.
Man, I heard the local GOP officials were corrupt, but didn't know it was that bad. Republicans should be pissed. I know I am. No wonder some decent moderate Republicans can't win. These people are in cahoots with the Democrats!
Have you wondered why Republican Party officials -- who did nothing to help elect a Republican as L.A.'s next mayor -- are now campaigning so vigorously to elect Democrat James Hahn? The answer appears to be "money." Learn the details at MooreIsBetter.com by clicking on "For Sale: Los Angeles County Republican Party." If you're still a Republican, you'll want to join me in re-registering as an independent.Moore is charging that Jim Hahn paid local GOP officials $20,000 to campaign for him and deny opportunities to Republicans. You can read Walter's case here. And with that, Walter has left the party to become an independent.
Cordiallly, Walter Moore.

Hoo Ha! It just gets better. ADV-lovers trying to tout one of Hahn's bitter "Valley City" wannabe councilmembers bashing him on a religious radio station with a transponder powered by sickly Griffith Park squirrels, and TODAY, Hahn is one ESPN radio -- DURING NBA PLAYOFFS season.
You have to wonder if this is ALL just because ADV is too yellow-bellied to answer tough questions from radio listeners about his ratty record, or it his nerdy campaign hacks just don't know the difference... ESPN? NBA? Are those PACs. Quick somebody, look those up so we know who'se funding ll his

Prett funny, that. . . Boyd on McIntyre yesterday was saying one of the main reasons Moore didn't get the county endorsement was that he nearly went Postal on the board, demanding things, going off all "wacky!"

He's STILL pretending he had some kind of chance (if EVERY GOP voter turned out and they ALL voted for him)... like, "where" on the non-partisan ballot does it say "HERE -- THIS ONE'S the BEST GOP guy to vote for!).
Please, this the the DEFINITIONS of the sourest of sour grapes.
WE KNOW this is what the ADV-lovers want. Get the 20-25 percent of the registered that are GOP to go off an "idealoguey" and vote for someone who SAYS they're GOP and doesn't have 1 shot in a million of making the runoff, and if he DOES has -1 chance in a million of doing ANY damage to
ADV would be leading Moore by 55 points in the Times poll if he had somehow miraculously squeaked by.

To hell with the money (and I though ADV people were crowing here that they had GOP's on staff????)
Boyd summed it up best on the radio - ADV is the democrat thatb can do the MOST damage to the GOP agenda,or the agenda of ANYONE to the right on Fidel Castro...
Make the best of being a very small minority in L.A. and get the best concessions from the bullies in the majoritym or DIE on principal. Hahn has appointed a few Republicans, and MANY more moderates than and ADV mayor would EVER even consider.
If ADV gets achance to clean house it's going to be do-nothing, pander-gridlocked "progressives" under every commission rock.
And the city will grind to a long-term halt.

Wacko Walter may have not been the guy, but the GOP could have put forward someone serious - however that requires an effective organization, something the Boyd's don't want (because it means they would have to give up their cushy positions).
The Boyds don't care about the Republican party, they only care about how much free food and drink they can get and be grand poobahs of a dying party they are helping to kill.

Looks like Doug and Linda will soon be joining Mayor Hahn in earning the title "Former" before their name. "Former" Mayor, "Former" Treasurer of the CRP, "Former" head of the LACGOP. Hopefully Doug will at least be able to use some of that money to buy Hahn a drink Tuesday night when he loses.

Pretty smart of all concerned if you ask me. GOP people take Hahn's money, help elect a lame duck liberal democrat, and get another shot with REAL GOP candidates in 4 years. Hahn pays a pittance to get some assistance getting in GOP votes, and exploits ADV's weakness among moderates and conservatives.
WIN-WIN.
ADV, meanwhile, gets endorsments from Parks and Hertzberg (for god-knows what back-room deals), and immediately starts losing ground among THEIR support groups.
Lose-LOSER!

Or is it just SMART!
And are Villaraigosa's supporters REALLY outraged by this, or just too dumb-dumb to think of doing it themselves, OR just couldn't find any GOP operatives with any current party pull and influence that could hold their noses long enough to work in the midst of the rabid, socialist, far-left stench that surrounds ADV?

Speaking of the Times, 10:24 a.m., they're bias is becoming so much more obvious. Twice in recent coverage they've taken apart claims against ADV and just laughed off his serious credibility problems like, "so what.
When they were talking about him breaking his promise to his district not to run for mayor, they said "so what, politicians always do it - Delgadillo is making plans to run for another office within weeks of re-election." BUT Delgadillo did make a SPECIFIC promised not to during his campaign and REPEAT IT 50 times, like ADV did. Delgadillo is also in his SECOND term, not the first half of his FIRST.
Then TODAY, they take apart Hahn's ad on the Florida money and say "no evidence ADV did favors for the contributors. But in the VERY NEXT SENTENCE, they talk about him trying to kill contracts extentions for COMPETITORS of the Miami money people (to open the door for THEM to get the contracts).
DID the TIMES fire all it's editors and fact checkers when they lost all those subscriptions (to save money)? Don't they even read their OWN stuff. How more BLATANT can you get than that! Oh, but ADV says there's NO connection. (And he ALWAYS tells the truth, right CD14???)

Difference between Hahn and Antonio is Hahn doesn't have to lie on TV ads like ADV. THose police officers are FAKE not real cops. Hahn got endorsed today by REAL LAPD. Ohhhh looks like ADV is in trouble again by Daily Breeze.
Villaraigosa's schedule called 'sanitized'
Councilman's work list excludes out-of-town fund-raising events
NOW THIS IS AN ENDORSEMENT
Credit L.A. mayor on safety, stability, housing
We supported Los Angeles Mayor James Hahn's re-election bid back in March and continue to do so in the runoff campaign against a popular city councilman, Antonio Villaraigosa.
We base our endorsement of Hahn on many of the same reasons voiced by Harbor Area residents, who overwhelmingly supported the mayor two months ago. They include:
Hahn's appointment of William Bratton as police chief, his efforts to restore community policing and the resultant 18 percent drop in crime over the past two years.
The easing of tensions between Harbor Area communities and the Port of Los Angeles as a result of the formation of a Port Community Advisory Committee, progress on the waterfront promenade plans and the efforts to craft a long-term plan to hold the line on port pollution.
The progress the city has made in doubling housing production in a region where demand for homes consistently outpaces supply.
The approval of a modernization plan for Los Angeles International Airport. This is a work in progress, and the city will need to dialogue with neighboring communities to ease congestion fears. But the overall goals of the plan are sound: Keep annual passenger traffic to below 78 million and make LAX less vulnerable to acts of terrorism.
Credit the mayor also with working to hold the city together when San Fernando Valley leaders were advocating secession. Meanwhile, traffic remains a perennial headache, but a study released this week found that traffic delays in the L.A. region in 2003 were actually a bit less than in previous years.
Hahn's leadership style may not be flashy, but he has provided stability and hope that the quality of life here can be improved. We urge L.A. voters to re-elect him on Tuesday.

JUST to clarify one very misleading point here.
VILLARAIGOSA was the one who kept Hertzberg out of the runoff -- NOT Walter Moore. Hertzberg had one runoff spot sewn up, before bitter, vindictive ADV jumped in late to settle an old score (and break his MAIN 2003 campaign promise).
Read the media endorsements, people... Hertzberg would have been showered with praise in a two-way with Hahn -- ADV's nods are weak and perfunctory, at best.
Without ADV in the primary, and with Parks pulling major African American percentages away from Hahn, Hertzberg had a VERY good chance of squeeking over the 50 percent mark in the PRIMARY, had ADV not been COMPELLED to give L.A. a "choice" against Hahn.
HUH, Hertzberg, Parks, and even Alarcon weren't "choices against Hahn!
This thing COULD have been over back in MARCH if not for ADV's massive bruised ego, thin skin, and LEGENDARY vengeful nature.
Read the Times profile on the campaign hacks -- even ADV's handlers are in this to SETTLE A SCORE! They probably would have worked for free this time (BAD negotiating ADV... thought you were the labor negotiating whiz?)
SCREW you rationale thought chips back into the motherboards, people. If your HATE Hahn, you should be MOST pissed at ADV.
He broke it up, and now HE'S going to lose AGAIN, and put Hahn back in.
Anonymous said:
The chance of Hahn winning this thing is zero. There is absolutely no scenario in which Hahn can overcome the massive amount he trails Antonio (especially with the inept team that he has in place). You can type, type, type all you want to try to put on a good show, but this thing is over, and has been over for months. Hahn has no one but himself to blame. If he would have demonstrated some leadership during the past four years he would be breezing to re-election, but he didn't. He is too lazy and too stupid to be Mayor. Game over, folks.
Anonymous said:
Good point, but the logic behind the original post heading here is even more disturbed than that. If you read it through -- they're bashing a GOP operative for working for the less liberal of the two democratic candidates, but then implying somehow that ANOTHER Republican -- Moore -- should have for SOME reason, stepped out of the way of a THIRD liberal Democrat, Hertzberg (in the primary), so that the runoff would have been between the two MORE liberal democrats in the race.
And this would have benefitted Moore and the Republicans how? Moore said DURING the primary that is he had to pick one of the challengers to support/benefit it would have actually been Parks.
Now he supports Hahn (or did?), and now he's an independent. So it's all moot point.
Even in a supposedly non-partisan race, you really can't be faulting a GOP player for staying in and possibly having some small part in bumping out the Dem you happen to like best.
That's not his job...
That's just ALL bass-ackwards. The democrats conniving together to give another one of their ilk a better shot makes some sense, but when you jump across party lines to suggest that someone "screwed" your guy's chances. Sorry, nothing in that makes sense.

Thanks for reviving it (for the record).

PART ONE*
The Rebel
At 49, Skelton is not as woolly as he was when his shoulder-length hair and a full beard spooked at least one client.
"I looked like Peter Kropotkin," he said with a laugh, referring to the Russian anarchist of the turn of the 20th century.
He spends his free time listening to Appalachian bluegrass music and rereading Icelandic sagas. Epic struggles are the kinds of plots he relishes. "Relatively uncontested reelection work doesn't interest me," Skelton said. "I need the warp and woof of a really interesting campaign I could lose."
He didn't always love that. There were periods when he went through the final couple of weeks of a campaign with a stomachache. In 1991, as he stood poised to ascend to the bigger political races, Skelton lost three races by a combined total of fewer than 1,000 votes.
"I was catatonic," he said. "I didn't get off my couch for a week." Fortunately, his girlfriend, Alison Morgan, didn't think he was a loser. He and Morgan, a ballet dancer and actress turned political fundraiser, eventually married and now have two children.
Over time, he said, he realized he could lose a race and still live — not to mention get another job. "I love L.A. politics — more than anything else I do," Skelton said.

He has stated that the mayor has no control on LAUSD then he shows an ad lying saying Mayor Hahn has missed board meetings. People are now questioning his flip flopping and wondering if he's LYING about and misleading with these ads it will only get worst if he wins.
Anonymous said:
PART TWO*
Skelton works with his partners out of a stark Pasadena loft decorated with 1950s Mexican art posters. He stays in touch with Villaraigosa's team via conference calls. He avoids actual campaign events, but made an exception to take his 5-year-old son to the Van Nuys event where former presidential candidate Sen. John F. Kerry (D-Mass.) endorsed Villaraigosa.
"I would love to be an elected officeholder," Skelton said. He just doesn't want to be a candidate. "I can't imagine sitting down for five hours and calling people for money."
Skelton won't disclose how much money he will earn in this campaign, but city Ethics Commission records indicate his consulting company — SG&A — has been paid $140,000 through the end of April.
Skelton was a quarter of an academic year away from his bachelor's degree in philosophy at UCLA when he organized a successful campaign to pass a rent-control initiative in Santa Monica. After he won, he was launched. His trademark has become clever direct mail, and hoisting opponents on their own petards.
When Rep. Adam Schiff, the Democrat representing the 29th Congressional District, ran in 1996 for state Assembly against Paula Boland, Skelton made a collage of Boland's attack mail and put it on Schiff's own mailer. "It asked, what do we know about Paula Boland?" Schiff recalled. "And then it said, 'Paula Boland obviously doesn't like Adam Schiff very much.' " The mailer proceeded to dissect Boland.
"Voters don't take this as deadly serious as we do," Skelton said. "They aren't disposed to believe attacks on a campaign. They need to know you're responding to them and that you don't think it's true…. But humor helps deflect it."
Anonymous said:
PART THREE*
Skelton, who guided Villaraigosa's unsuccessful 2001 campaign for mayor, said he never expected to win four years ago. "We couldn't get more than 20% of the African American vote," Skelton said. "And in making the decision to run this time, my mantra was: Can we get 40% of the black vote? If we can't, we shouldn't run."
Skelton knows the knock on him is that, four years ago, Villaraigosa didn't counter Hahn's attacks harder and faster.
This time, Skelton wasted no time striking back at a negative Hahn ad in the primary campaign.
"We wanted to send a message in the primary that we were not going to let any hit go unchallenged," he said.
The negative battle has been dialed up this week as Hahn tries to close an 11-point gap in a Los Angeles Times poll.
"I think we're prepared for any possibility," Skelton said. "Within an hour of Hahn going negative, we're ready to respond."
The Gambler
Villaraigosa is ready to counterattack largely because he has Ace Smith. A pioneer in the field of opposition research, Smith has burrowed deeply through records for information — often dirt — on opponents and his own clients.
Smith's speed-reading skill — he can inhale a 400-page book on a cross-country flight — helps.
"I probably personally know their records better than either of them do," he said while sitting in a restaurant not far from the office space he rents in Little Tokyo. Over a lunch of udon noodle soup — which he eats sparingly — he is courtly, his words measured, his steely blue eyes intense.
On the telephone or in e-mails, it's a different story. He'll deluge editors and reporters with the tidbits that skewer and deflate his opponent's statement du jour.
"Ace is very good at the rapid response," said former Assemblyman Richard Katz, who has been helping Villaraigosa on the campaign trail, and even played the role of Hahn in Villaraigosa's debate prep.
"When Hahn first started saying, 'Antonio, we want to see your e-mail,' Ace was right there saying, 'See our e-mails? We haven't seen your appointment book that you're required to release.' It allowed the candidate to be above the fray."
When Villaraigosa attacks, some see the hand of Smith at work. The campaign manager said his client is markedly more aggressive than he was four years ago. "One of the fundamental rules of politics is if someone is attacking you, you have to respond," Smith said. "If you sit there and take it, you'll lose."
Anonymous said:
Yes, you're right Antonio is aggressive right off the streets. He's a typical gangster thug. City Council just got blasted for Antonio, Weiss, Zine missing yet another meeting. John Walsh went off on them for being absent because they only have to attend 3 meetings. He spoke for a long time stating that they are elected officials that have a duty to get business done first.
Gee, Antonio has missed two weeks of city council meetings. Is the rumor that is running rampant citywide that he's actually running for Governor and this is yet another stepping stone?

NC'S are essential to the community as the voice of the people. The only problem I have is when politicians such as Villaraigosa use these NC's to push their agenda. For example, in El Sereno, you have Alvin Parra as an interim President, and in downtown you have Meruelo deeply seeded in that council, those are two that I know of and I'm not even involved in them personally. Imagine those of you that are involved in these NC's, you must know more rats that are implanted in these NC's to push, work, and promote inhouse political agendas. I'm only speaking of these two, I have no idea of the others. If the NC's maintain a their own identity, they would be effective in promoting community concerns and comments. Although, the NC's board members should be barred from running for office and donating to politicians. The NC's need to have more community involvement. Last time I went to vote, there was a flyer for a community meeting. I asked the lady, "What happens at these things?" She said, "Why, your not going to go anyway." What crap. She is absolutely right though, if these groups do not fight for more community involvement, we really won't be interested in attending. Many of us think that the NC in El Sereno is run by Villaragosa thugs. I have heard good things from the Eagle Rock and Boyle Heights NC's...

AND THEN, just a few days later SHE resigned (she was a Hertzberg endorser, and about the 3rd or 4th president to resign this board year).

Previous Anon,
This is a red flag. Isn't there an ethics department that oversees the treatment of NC's by politicians and their staff? It sounds as if the NC president was being bullied, possibly because of the Hertzberg endorsemnt. How sad, in this day and age, the NC's experiences sound as if they are bullied by commies. Villaraigosa's office is full of this mentality, they try to suppress free speech. This is not democracy, people should wake up.

OH, and someone mentioned the Times coverage. They screwed up the endorsement story and said the "neighoborhood councils" endorsed Hahn.
The councils can't, but their officers can, as private citizens -- and most NC presidents who have endorsed are in Hahn's column.
They've worked with him, they know he's attentive, deals with their issues, and puts a lot of stock into using their networks to reach communities. He kept their budgets intact, when others got squeezed -- and not to pander to them (since "they" can't endorse...)
What do you expect, when Times first profiled ADV the writer said he "won the general election" in 2001 -- not the primary.
Does anyone there understand city government, at all?

I have gathered some research of the Southwest Voter registration. This is what I have so far. I have spoken to over 100 people, usually at the Lincoln Hts. Park baseball games, weekday and weekends. I have gathered from this 62 people that will go on record commenting about the Southwest voter registration and what they witnessed or experienced. I have the names, addresses, phone numbers, and their comment, plus their signatures. Can someone please tell me, where do I send this data to and to who's attention. Many of the comments are negative about the voter registration, some comments are in Spanish. BTW, certain persons felt compelled to comment about the councilman and their disgust, also when Gloria Molina showed up, there is so much negative experience, but I wrote everything, and they signed after the comments. I video taped 11 people on one day, the rest are written comments.

"Villaraigosa's schedule called 'sanitized'
Councilman's work list excludes out-of-town fund-raising events, Hahn's adviser points out.
By David Zahniser
Copley News Service"
Now Councilman Antonio Villaraigosa is the one under fire for releasing an updated schedule from the past two months that has almost no mention of his campaign activities.
http://www.dailybreeze.com/news/articles/1576712.html
Anonymous said:
Villaraigosa spokesman Joe Ramallo defended the councilman's decision to omit his campaign activities in the latest schedule, saying state law does not require him to disclose such information.
**************************
Joe Ramallo
For four years he served as Asst. Director of Policy for Miami-Dade County Mayor Alex Penelas
According to the Democratic official in Washington, Gore is said to be disheartened by Penelas' actions. "The vice president likes Alex and has spent a lot of time with him," says this source. "I think he is more hurt than shocked by the way Alex has distanced himself. When people make comments critical of Alex in front of the vice president, he doesn't say anything. He just looks hurt."

Ultimatum from CA State Lands to the Hahns
On Wednesday, May 11th, EAA received a copy of a letter dated May 6, 2005 , (reprinted below) addressed to Port of LA Commission President Tonsich regarding some plum projects Mayor Hahn and his sister have been working furiously to deliver to their own community in San Pedro. In this letter, the State Lands Commission advised Nick Tonsich in no uncertain terms that POLA’s approval and intention to move forward on the “welcome park” and “charter high school” does not comply with the trust agreement in effect between the State of California and the City of Los Angeles . State Lands respectfully advised the Commission to not only stop work on both projects forthwith, but also to sell the property already purchased for this “welcome park”. The trust that allows the City of Los Angeles to operate the Port of Los Angeles requires the profits from this Port be used either to directly mitigate the effects of operating the Port in the area of the Port or that they be used for the welfare of the State in general, not a specific community. Hahn cannot claim ignorance of this issue because, as City Attorney, he was involved in a previous instance of violation of this trust while Riordan was Mayor and he knows that this resulted in City taxpayers having to repay 10’s of millions of dollars to the Port for a similar infraction.
We wonder why this information has not been distributed publicly even though it is in the hands of the Harbor Commission as well as top management at the Port.
Is the ugly spector of Hahn politics rearing its ugly head again?
Does the Mayor want to wait until after next Tuesday’s election to let his own district know that he has apparently once again bungled the projects he and his sister have pledged to their neighbors and friends?
Or, even more cynically, have Hahn and his little sister decided that since the lawsuit that would result from these actions wouldn’t be settled until after the ends of their terms, they couldn’t care less if taxpayers all over the city were then forced to pay for the projects that they’ve placed in the neighborhoods where they live?
What does this say about how serious the Mayor is in his commission to serve ALL of the citizens of Los Angeles as opposed to serving himself and the neighborhood he lives in?

This is a few days old, but VERY telling about the reliability of the L.A. Times latest poll:
http://www.mattszabo.com/archives/2005/05/la_times_poll_i.html
Basically it shows that nearly one out of every 10 voters favoring EITHER mayoral candidate (identical numbers for Hahn or ADV), consider corruption an ASSET, not a liability.
Supposedly this poll has a margin of error of only about 4 percent, but this seems to strongly suggest their numbers are off WAY more than that, or else quite a few people questioned were very confused or intentionally trying to jerk the poll off its axis for fun or profit.
Most likely it means the MOE is several times what they claim...
Anonymous said:
Someone seems to like the little math problems they keep posting -- A+B=C, Here's an equation that defines the candidate very well.
So the Breeze reports that ADV wiped his calendars clean of campaign activities. Campaign confirms, saying they don't have to show that stuff.
Earlier, the Times reports on these same calendars and says ADV's show that he spent nearly all his time - for most of the past year - on campaign activities (while getting paid $140K to be a full time councilmember -- but that's another equation). Note, though that the Times fails to mention there are no specifics about these campaign activities (representing most of his released information) -- an omission that adds proof to the argument the Times is going easier on ADV (also another "equation").
ADV then beats Hahn up for not releasing his calendars, so he does -- and Times reports that unline ADV, he has "balanced" his time between city work and campaign.
But, if ADV spent almost ALL of his time campaigning, and purged those specifics, then WHAT information exactly was he actually releasing? Absolutely nothing -- nearly blank calendars, with just placeholders for campaign time.
Yet another bogus campaign trick to try and embarrass the other guy, without ever really being forthcoming himself -- when what SHOULD have been an embarrassment -- to ADV, was the fact that he was stealing city money every time he deposited his paycheck. AND, the information ADV his was the VERY same kind of details
EQ: Something (ADV's calendars) - nearly everything (his campaign time) = almost nothing (delivery on promises).
The more "open" and forthcoming this guy claims to be the more deceitful he actually is -- more weasel words and equivocations from this "all show" talker who has accomplished nothing in two full years.
"I voted against it, but then voted for it."
"I promised not to do that, but was 'compelled' to break that promise."
"I support public education but avoid using it myself. My opponent runs from educational issues, but entrusts his family to LAUSD."
"I support business development in Los Angeles, but I spend MY money elsewhere."
"I'm tough on crime, but not on criminals."
"My opponent is MIA, but I missed more council and committee meetings than any of my peers."
"My opponent is invisible, but I haven't been seen at a neighborhood council in my district in two years."
"My opponent is under investigation, but I wipe clean from my calendars the information investigators are most likely to want to see."
Enough -- there is no cure on the market for ADV's allergic reaction to the truth!
Hahn is already a better option to never being told the truth, and we can do even better in four years.

Breaking news, after Miguel's Saturday burial:
One of the gazillion L.A. Times reporters working the Mayor's race got a confirmation from a union leader that she witnessed a Hahn operative actually asking Charles Lester for permission to say "it was Miguel's wish that Latinos vote for Hahn."
THIS HAPPENED FRIDAY NIGHT AT THE HOSPITAL, RIGHT AFTER MIGUEL PASSED!!!
There was one other witness, a minister.
Charles Lester refuses to talk about it. But others are talking, including witnesses.
This is going to look so bad for Hahn.
How disgusting! A leader like Miguel passes, and all he can think about is how to use his death to benefit politically.

i.e. (my interpretation) Got to keep enough people ALIVE in L.A. city (16 homicides in CD14 and ADV hasn't BLINKED), to GET to the next city election and MAYBE find someone who doesn't first scare off most REAL Republicans come endorsement time.

Mayor Sam started this out with: "These people are in cahoots with the Democrats!"
I see your "cahoots" and raise you one "consensus."
Potato, potahto!
If it's MY team it's "consensus-building" -- if it's yours it, "cahoots," collaboration, and treachery.
Weak thread... VERY, very weak!

In case anyone caught that slam a bit ago about the two gentlemen with Hispanic surnames having rumors thrown around about their personal lives -- this is a PRIME example.
These are two elected neighborhood council presidents who had the NERVE to endorse someone other than ADV -- traitors to their race, to la raza! How dare they!
So now there's payback.
This ALSO goes hand in hand with the OTHER NC president who resigned about being ripped a new one by ADV's CD14 field staff -- she ALSO endorsed someone OTHER than ADV for mayor. She was seen in the parking lot of the ER library taking verbal abuse from CD field staff -- and it now GONE from the NC system.
This is the payback, the "code," the OMERTA, that CD14 people have been talking about. Just like in the story books. And then you ask WHY ARE YOU ALL ANONYMOUS -- come out and make your accusations publicly.
Why, so this can happen to ME, too???
If you follow ADV, make DAMN sure you never decide somewhere down the line that he's not worth supporting anymore. EASY for a Mayor Sam to jovially say -- hey, if he's a bad mayor, we'll ditch HIM, too. BOY are you mistaken.
Your reputations will be forfeited if you CROSS him of his toadies in ANY way. You'll lose position, your community projects won't be funded, your name will be drug through the mud.
WITNESS this... You're seeing the attacks HERE, people ON this blog -- up close and personal. Slammed, slimed, painted as "race traitors."
You can't deny it. His is a crooked, vengeful little regime. If you're IN -- your IN for life, or your life will be made like hell!

No kidding, 6:46 Anonymous. I've only seen Antonio's field staff in action a few times because they avoid neighborhood council meetings mostly, but they start off defensive and end up downright abusive. They make that guy Bolton they're talking about putting up at the UN look cool and calm.
Future mayor's staff, huh? Good luck people downtown!

If the LA Times weren't paid Antonio lovers they would have done a story on these incompetent field staffers. All they would have to do is go to ANY community meeting and they would see for themselves. The disrespect, the lies, the condensing tone they use when speaking to residents, seniors, community activists. They are not liked in any part of CD14. That poster who has been saying its interesting that NOT ONE community person, or organization in CD14 has endorsed Antonio. That's a RED FLAG and dumb reporters should have gone after that story but they're too lazy. Except for the "Z" man David Z.

You should of seen how CD14 staff was treating volunteers at their so called day of service. Gabby and her Dike girl friend Sarno were such Bitches to every one. They didn’t even have food for any of their volunteers. I hope they do go to City Hall and get the hell out of El Sereno.

Proof of Southwest Voter Registration Education Project's working as a field organization for the Villaraigosa Campaign, in violation of it's 501(c)3 non-profit status and violating the reporting requirements for all Independent Expenditure Campaigns:
"While SVREP does not support candidates or political parties, according to our analysis, if the Latino vote would have been hyper mobilized and turned out at a rate of 63.2%, more than 199.759 Latino would have voted. Assuming the rate of Latinos voting for Villaraigosa remains constant at 82% he would have received an additional 51,679 Latino votes. This scenario, more simply expressed as Latinos comprising 32% of all votes cast, would have led to victory for Villaraigosa."

SarNO! isn't in the El Sereno office, 7:47 p.m. -- she's deputy CoS and runs the Highlad Park/Eagle Rock office (if you call that "running" something!)

Hurray for Sarno and that other lady at the cleanup, the accomplished more people to get pissed off at ADV!

Sarno’s bitch has never been a lady. Gaby and ADV actually share a lot of things in common. They were both thugs from the projects that got knocked up as teens. Their own children hate them. No wonder why constituents can’t deal with her.
