Underdog being, under funded, under endorsed and under attack.<br /><br />Gloria Molina did it in 1991 with her supervisor victory over Art Torres though she was outspent 4 to 1. In 1992 Xavier Becerra defeated the Old Boys' candidate Leticia Quuezada to take Ed Roybal's congressional seat though being outspent 3 to 1. (Roybal himself started his political career with an underdog victory in 1948 for city council)<br /><br />Then there was Nick Pacheco's victory in 1999 which doomed his career because he beat Antonio, Miguel Contreras, Gloria Molina, Richard Polanco and Maria Elena Durazo. Griego is hardly worth mentioning but his bankroll is - outspending Nick 5 to 1. <br /><br />These were genuine Grass Roots movements and guess what, no Parke Skelton around. Anybody can get the keys to a Cadillac campaign and look good - the talent comes out when you take an underdog to victory. When was the last underdog victory Parke or Trujillo have had - and Chu and Antonio for mayor don't count because money was never an issue.<br /><br />What these campaigns did have in common - in person and in protege success - was Pat Bond. Pat was the driving force behind Gloria Molina and her Italian motherly instincts made her a mentor to a generation of Latino eastside activists, including Nick Pacheco. One can only dream of what Gloria could have been if Pat didn't succumb to breast cancer.<br /><br />The organizers of Las Madres, Homeboy Industries (vast majority of credit to Boyle), the East L.A. prison movement, the Vernon toxic incinerator movement among others - all honed their skills under the tutelege of Pat Bond. It is very simple, if there where a Pat Bond still, there would be no Parke Skelton in the eastside.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-9453589294078198532011-02-03T09:24:28.742-08:002011-02-03T09:24:28.742-08:00Yes, 7:24, bumbling, clueless and a fairy tale end...Yes, 7:24, bumbling, clueless and a fairy tale ending.

Alatorre was the head of the NAACP in Socal, Polanco was the labor progressive candidate, Villar has sold out the unions and his community. <br /><br />Parke and his minions might want to give him a pat on the back but if it wasn't for his intrusion into communities of color, those communities would be way more advanced. <br /><br />High school drop out rate, home and business ownership and voting participation in these communities of color are the same as when Parke began his "progressive" career by helping us poor disenfranchised community get "leaders" like Antonio, Huizar, and Ludlow elected.<br /><br />With his big labor money and scorched earth campaign logic, Parke has stymied progressive grass roots leadership in these communities. And in the case of Latinos he has done this by taking well know stereotypes and turning them into slick political brochures. <br /><br />Antonio comes from a single mother home - bullshit, Tony's mother kicked out his dad and shacked up with another man right away. There was always a man in Antonio's home.<br /><br />Antonio is a high school drop out - bullshit, getting kicked out of Cathedral high for selling drugs does not equate to being a high school drop out.<br /><br />In Huizar's case, Parke should do a brochure about the Lazy Mexican, that's a stereotype, make it into a winner Parke because that is the label on Jose.<br /><br />History will be the judge on Parke legacy. Given the vendidos he has elected, it would be good reading for his blind faith fans.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-57944978873014050172011-02-02T17:39:12.952-08:002011-02-02T17:39:12.952-08:00If when you say progressive, you mean "not t...If when you say progressive, you mean "not tied down by any recognizable ethical standards" then maybe Parke is progressive.<br /><br />That's why he's so valuable to the mob.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-50229917718974454692011-02-02T14:57:52.073-08:002011-02-02T14:57:52.073-08:00I have to agree: Parke Skelton is a particularly n...I have to agree: Parke Skelton is a particularly nasty version of a veneral disease.

The L.A. Times reported that MARTINEZ (the "honesty-challeged" opponent of Huizar, with a MILLION axes to grind), told the paper that the FBI had ASKED HIM QUESTIONS about Huizar. And 2 unnamed former employees were also ASKED QUESTIONS.<br /><br />He didn's even say the FBI had sought HIM out, which means HE could have tried to rat Huizar out.<br /><br />If I call that cops and say you're urinating in my front yard, and they say for how long, their ASKING ME QUESTIONS about the complaint. Then if they send a car out and the officer ask TWO OTHER NEIGHBORS, "did you see the guy pissing in public", they're ASKING OTHERS QUESTIONS, to decide if it even worth pursuing any further.<br /><br />Once they drive away, stick their notes in a locker, and do nothing further.... <br /><br />IT'S OVER.<br /><br />There is no INVESTIGATION (just as Huizar's camp said), and it's just as likely there never WILL be, because they're pretty sure IT NEVER HAPPENED. <br /><br />THAT'S not an "INVESTIGATION" - thats responding to a complaint. Period. They have to do it. Its done. <br /><br />But if I want to keep stirring up trouble, like Martinez's camp does, I can go to every other neighbor on the block and say "LAPD asked ME questions" (and never explain why), and mislead them, and pretty sure, everyone on the block has heard the FALSE rumor that my neighbor if UNDER INVESTIGATION for public pissing.<br /><br /><br />Get it? ELECTION TIME. Lies you can get simple-minded people to believe = votes.<br /><br />(And there was a ANOTHER huge lie here posted overnight, that the GUY who oftens CAPITALIZES words is M. Trujillo).<br /><br />It's NOT, it's ME, the SAME GUY who calls Trujillo - TURD-Jillo.<br /><br />And for ONCE and FOR ALL, children... anyone else here who LIES and PRETENDS they know who any of the ANONYMOUS posters here actually is, belongs in a nut house.<br /><br />The standard B.S. cowardly response tactic here for years, also enouraged and practiced by Red Snot and Higby, is to try and ignore and discount VERY GOOD arguments aagainst their unfounded, factless posts, by simply saying:<br /><br />"OH, Trujillo posted that" or "PARKE Skeleton" or "Huizar Staffers."<br /><br />All lies, all cowardly avoidance of actually addressing the DAMNING content of the rebuttal comments.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-3106743027186585312011-02-02T09:57:48.892-08:002011-02-02T09:57:48.892-08:00Jose Huizar really being investigation?Jose Huizar really being investigation?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-79909669311880182222011-02-02T08:44:37.128-08:002011-02-02T08:44:37.128-08:00Trujillo is such a loser.
