I am starting to like Paladino for Gov.

Now that Paladino has paid-off Lazio to drop out of the race, he has a better chance. However, I highly doubt he will beat Cuomo.
Paladino's dirty laundry is seeping out now, anyway.

I'm irritated enough with the shenanigans of the Democratic party that I'm voting Republican straight across the board this year.

I'm irritated enough with the shenanigans of the Democratic party that I'm voting Republican straight across the board this year. I was thinking of doing the same, Denise, but have decided I like Kracker's idea better. After I enter the booth, for each name I recognize, I'll vote for his or her opponent. The resulting slate won't do any worse than any other, I'm thinking, but Kracker's method might get rid of a lot of dead wood.

Kracker's idea would work, except that it would split the vote, where by voting a straight republican ticket, whether you are in favor of a particular candidate or not, will certainly help to regain the majority for the republicans. THAT would be my primary goal in voting this year. To vote any other way will only split the vote up and the democrats will retain the majority. I am not in favor of many of the republicans either, but they can't do any worse than the present band of thieves and miscreants.

Lets face it one party is just as bad as the other and history has proven that. I like Kracker's idea also. Who knows, if ALL of us do just that, all the incumbents might lose and we can get some new bodies to deal with. That would definitely send a strong message to both parties.

Still almost 5 weeks to go and I am throughly sick of the commercials telling me that our candidate Luke will drain the swamp with his baseball bat and create millions of green jobs at the new shovel (or maybe spade) ready, tax payer incentivized light saber factory while their candidate Darth has been secretly channeling his father Satan and diverting funds stolen from hard working tax payers to his job sucking dark bulb manufacturing program.
Of course I mostly use my TV to play news programs as background music while getting my real info from Clipper's Busy Corner, so I may have gotten a couple details wrong.

Reading this mornings paper about the swearing in of Gov and Lt. Gov. I am not use to seeing our ex mayor's name as Robert. Here in Rochester we always addressed him as Bob Duffy. Lt. Gov. Robert Duffy, sounds so formal and "untouchable".

I did not know until today the the Gov. has a girl friend. And she has her own program on the Food Network. I forgot her name but it is the program that has a different set each day and provides tablescapes to highlight the menu for the day. www.cnycentral.com/news/story.aspx?id=562319Sandra Lee is her name. When asked how she wanted to be referred to (the news release announcing her tour calls her a 'close friend' of Governor Andrew Cuomo) Lee told us that she did not want to discuss her private life. When asked if she thought her relationship with the governor gives more prominence to the hunger awareness effort, she tells up 'I don't even think about that. I think about doing the work I've always done and is important to me. I want to stay with what's true to me."

Ain't that the truth. When I lived in Utica I knew that first hand. You saw them in church with their wives on Sunday but the night before at the Ramada Cumada on a Friday and Saturday.
I was flipping throu the channels today and stopped for a moment on CNN. There was Spitzer talking about the Naval officer who did those videos that is in the news now on his ship. I was thinking this should be an interesting commentary coming from him. But changed the station cause I can't stand Spitzer.

The old Ramada on Burrstone Rd was known for it's shack ups back when I rode an ambulance in the city. We used to call it the "Ram it in". LOL Picked up a couple of older men that were "screwed down to parade rest" and were having chest pains. Not politicians though. THAT would have been much more entertaining. Thank God Viagra didn't exist back then, or we most likely would have encountered more cases of needing the coroner instead of the ambulance, ROFLMAO.
