An anti-...Yea someone is not doing the math right. An anti-AV vote is an anti-AV vote whether it goes to Zuma or Walter. <BR/><BR/>The candidates who I do believe who will get most of their votes by taking away votes from Walter are David H. and Phil.<BR/><BR/>There is a certain core of anti-AV voters who are liberal. They may not like Antonio but they won't vote for Republicans/Conservatives like Walter, David H. or Phil.<BR/><BR/>Zuma on the other hand, though not a Democrat or a liberal, is not viewed as a Republican or conservative and has far more moderate viewpoints on the political scale. He's really more of a populists. Liberals who hate AV can go with that. <BR/><BR/>So for Zuma his challenge is getting out there and getting out that vote. It appears he's getting some decent media coverage for a candidate with no funding; he just needs to be out there everyday talking to folks and turning out the vote. He appears to be doing that.<BR/><BR/>Hence my original prediction stands that while I don't think there will be a run-off, Zuma will get more votes than Walter. The lower the turnout the less likely that is.<BR/><BR/>However if there is to be a run-off it's completely irrelevant that Zuma is running; Zuma not running would not have increased Walter's chances for a run-off.Michael Higbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03229225335109401795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-22794138494182169642009-01-31T13:30:00.000-08:002009-01-31T13:30:00.000-08:00Michael, I heard Gil Cedillo State Senate candidac...Michael, <BR/><BR/>I heard Gil Cedillo State Senate candidacy was rocked when his labor union support went to the Antonio-supported candidate Carol Liu.<BR/><BR/>Here's what happened: <BR/><BR/>Remember when Villaraigosa's cousing John Perez was running for Assembly? Villar offered the Cedillo-backed candidate (Augusto, his former aide) a commissioner appointment to drop out of the race.<BR/><BR/>Well, the union now sees that as a sign of weakness of Cedillo's part (that Antonio knocked out Cedillo's candidate so easily). <BR/><BR/>So although Gil thought the unions would NEVER turn on him after his lifetime of support to them, they did.<BR/><BR/>So to the people who are scared Antonio is running away with the City and State...HE IS!<BR/><BR/>THIS IS THE PROBLEM...Villaraigosa is selling out the city with these commissioner appointments. These people are not being appointed because of their experience in the department.

PLUS, to the dummy who says ZD will help Antonio avoid a run-off with every vote ZD "takes away" from Walter (if ZD is "taking" votes from Walter, I guess they weren't his in the first, place), but the point is...it doesn't matter if the vote goes to ZD or Walter...it's if it DOESN'T go to Antonio.<BR/><BR/>So if you are hoping for a run-off, it doesn't matter if the vote goes to Walter or Zuma. The only outcome it will have, is whether it would be Zuma or Walter in the run-off. But that is not your complaint. Your complaint is that Zuma will hurt the chances of a run-off. YOU DON'T GET IT:<BR/><BR/>A) It's Antonio vs ALL OTHER CANDIDATES COMBINED. So it doesn't matter where a non-Antonio vote goes, if you are only concerned about forcing a run-off. Now if you are conncered that Zuma will prevent Walter from being in the run-off, because you think ZD will be #2, and Walter will be #3...then that is a separate issue. That is the issue of Zuma Dogg simply beating Walter and making it into a run-off, instead of Walter. That is not about allowing AV to win withoug a run-off, crybaby.<BR/><BR/>B) You automatically assume that Zuma only shares voters with Walter. I would say Zuma will pull votes in the way 6:07 has described. <BR/><BR/>Seriously, I think Zuma will pull WAAAAAAAY, WAAAAAY, WAAAAAY more votes from people who would have voted for Antonio in the past, that I will "take" from Walter Moore. (And again, if the mere placement of my name on the ballot means I will be "taking" votes from Walter, they weren't his in the first place. He just announced he was running a year before I did, loser.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, In the past week I was on ABC News Nightline, KNBC 4 11 o'clock News, and last night (Friday) on the Fox 11 10 o'clock news.Zuma Dogghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13654815682490506196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-61935605944517713832009-01-31T07:48:00.000-08:002009-01-31T07:48:00.000-08:00To anonymous @ 12:17 PM,Politics is politics, and ...To anonymous @ 12:17 PM,<BR/><BR/>Politics is politics, and you have to be tough if you want to be involved. I'm plenty tough.<BR/>I actually served in the military, unlike most of the other candidates for Mayor.<BR/><BR/>I don't care what type of names you call me or what type of criticisms you level at me...that is all part of the game. But don't make factual statements that aren't true. Don't say that I did certain things unless I actually did them. It is a disservice to the whole process when you make things up.<BR/><BR/>I did not "demand" that the LA Times interview me. I simply went over there and told them I was one of six (at that time) candidates who would be on the ballot. I asked if they wanted to interview me or photograph me...they said they "didn't have anyone who could do that."<BR/>They were politely blowing me off.<BR/><BR/>I was disappointed because it seemed amazingly unprofessional, but I don't blame them. The Times has big problems right now...huge layoffs...employees in fear. Probably nobody wants to risk their careers interviewing someone running for Mayor who DOESN'T have a million dollars in his campaign account.<BR/><BR/>No problem.<BR/><BR/>It is my responsibility to get my message out.<BR/>If the Times can't help me or even mention my name...so be it.<BR/><BR/>I'm not going to cry about it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-79948124604424214172009-01-31T07:43:00.000-08:002009-01-31T07:43:00.000-08:00THANK YOU RICK ORLOV-Daily News read the reportSOL...THANK YOU RICK ORLOV-Daily News read the report<BR/><BR/>SOLAR PANEL INITIATIE GETTING COSTLIER....<BR/><BR/>Measure B, the city initiative on the March 3 ballot that calls for the installation of rooftop panels to capture solar energy, could cost more than double current estimates, according to a draft audit of the Department of Water and Power obtained by the Daily News. <BR/><BR/>The report by an outside consulting firm urged more study on the Green Energy and Good Jobs for Los Angeles proposal. <BR/><BR/>www.dailynews.com/breakingnews/ci_11595582Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09697502521871521202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-41125879892475615152009-01-31T07:39:00.000-08:002009-01-31T07:39:00.000-08:00What needs to start happening in this city for the...What needs to start happening in this city for the gang banger Mayor to know we are fed up with him and the morons on council who pander to $$$$ is START BOOING HIM when he comes to your side of town.

I think he is going to allow AnVil to escape a runoff.<BR/><BR/>How is ZD allowing it? By allegedly taking away votes from Walter Moore, Mr. 2.7 percent? Is that what you believe? Because at the height of Walter's popularity, with Jamiel's Law, his unpopularity was pathetic. <BR/><BR/>So are you really that dumb? Can't you get it through your thick skull that ZD could take away Black and Latino votes from Villar that Walter wouldn't get because they resent his having worked with hate groups and racists. And ZD can energize the uncommitted youth vote, that isn't going to any other candidate, and won't go to Walter. Unless you think that there's a lot of youth dying to line up with a sloppy old man handing out his lawn signs and straw hats. <BR/><BR/>But <B>Thank You HOZ</B> for revealing your true motive.

Zuma's made an ass and public nuisance of himself for years while jennerjerk is trying to go for personal attacks on AnVil that no one cares about except 3 fat Latinas, and then on the other hand he tries to ingratiate himself with the mayor by saying he agrees with him on how he's handling his campaign and maintaining the high road in the face of crazydogg and Wacky Walter.<BR/><BR/>Sure Lopez would like more merriment at the expense of all of them, especially Antonio -- what else is a columnist going to work with? -- but he knows the score.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-11281148759242590412009-01-30T12:38:00.000-08:002009-01-30T12:38:00.000-08:00Yeah, that approach (demanding an interview with t...Yeah, that approach (demanding an interview with the Editorial Board) is a quick way to get labeled a lunatic.<BR/><BR/>Welcome, Phil!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-84388334902632942009-01-30T12:17:00.000-08:002009-01-30T12:17:00.000-08:00The funniest story I heard was Phil Jennerclown wa...The funniest story I heard was Phil Jennerclown walks into the LA Times front lobby, tells them he's a candidate for mayor and demands to be interviewed.<BR/><BR/>What a moron!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-64006192319058173022009-01-30T11:57:00.000-08:002009-01-30T11:57:00.000-08:00JUST Get rid of him If youy look into the Housin...JUST Get rid of him If youy look into the Housing Authority (Rudy Montiel) you will find enoug stuff that the mayor has his hands in to justify getting rid og both of them.
