The Infant Assemblyman Mike Gatto bemoans Political Future

What a way to start another bloggin week here at Mayor Sam. Forget for the moment the LA Times expose on LAFD, Steve Lopez pondering what LAFD's response time would be if he fell off his bike again and whack his head, or campaign theatrics in the District Attorney race. We have a more pressing concern that involves the latest on Infant Assemblyman Mike Gatto and judging from the face above, he is not a happy infant politico.  

 We last saw our Infant Assemblyman Mike Gatto at the CD 15 City Councilman Joe Buscaino's victory party in San Pedro. We should note that at the same time Assemblyman Gatto was making his way into CD 15, the City of Glendale City Council was conducting a special meeting to discuss the future of redevelopment in the city and had requested the attendance of their assemblyman. But why pass on a great party when you will have plenty of time in your political future to deal with Glendale's issues? (** or you thought). 

 While the Infant Assemblyman pick partying over constituent concerns in Glendale or ponder ways to lock up more Raider fans dress in springtime Dodger Blue ( wonder if Burbank "political/security consultant" Kevin Harrop is a closet Raider fan?). Glendale School Board Member Greg Krikorian was filing papers to challenge the Infant Assemblyman in a newly redrawn moderate 43rd Assembly District. 

The fact that Krikorian waited to the last minute in filing papers for the 43rd AD, took away any chance for Gatto to replicate his tactic of finding someone in the Armenian Community like Chahe Keuroghelian (on left in picture above from a April 24, 2010 Meeting with Gatto), to enter the race and split the large Armenian vote. Thus, there will be no reason for the Infant Assemblyman to skip out of April 24 Observances in the Armenian Community in 2012,  unlike 2010..

Mucho more from the 43rd AD Campaign in the weeks ahead.
