My take is that Mary Benson will come out for Krekorian within a couple of days. She will bring a substantial grass-roots following. Essel has the advantage with money, but some unions, if they think Krekorian has a good chance will start to fund his race offsetting Essel's advantage.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12985098724033087421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-8213734312783301592009-10-30T22:32:23.143-07:002009-10-30T22:32:23.143-07:00Shallman is writing the hits on Mary BensonShallman is writing the hits on Mary BensonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-82797906569994306372009-10-30T22:16:27.097-07:002009-10-30T22:16:27.097-07:00If Benson really endorses Paul then it is really a...If Benson really endorses Paul then it is really all she wrote.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-81245952748480956312009-10-30T22:07:51.059-07:002009-10-30T22:07:51.059-07:00Paul Claims that he has Benson

I realize it's already a day late, but I guess that's how it goes. Who needs to make statements when there's plenty of money from the fat cats to slide across the finish line? <br /><br />With all due respect, Kerkorian has done more “for Hollywood” with AB1319 than Essel could ever shake out of herself in a cold sweat after waking up from a nightmare.Foxy LA Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16924949681100535629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8826939.post-78911660633628307572009-10-30T20:49:39.197-07:002009-10-30T20:49:39.197-07:00Actually, this endorsement shows just how desperat...<b><i><br />Actually, this endorsement shows just how desperate Krekorian is.<br /><br /></i></b><br /><br />Notice the timing of the release.
