I guess you don't check the Republican campign finance reports, as I have not seen any reference to them. Are you a one eyed one horned flyin' purple Democratic eater, as you seem not to report on them as well? I also received an anonymous phone call today on behalf of Peg Ferraro. Does that qualify as sleaze or is that just bein' neighborly?
You see no reference to them bc there are no 24 hour reports. I would have reported them, too.
As far as the automated call from Ferraro is concerned, I understand it is a positive recording of her own voice. but right now, people are so disgusted by those robo calls that they will hurt her.
I received an automated call from Peg Ferraro simply asking me to be sure to vote and please consider voting for her. No problem!
Democrat County registration edge is huge but R's Ferraro and Angle will sweep to victory big time, is my opinion. larry@kisslinger.com
Go fuck Yourself in the mouth ASSHOLE
Peg Ferraro's robo-call identified her in her own voice and asked for my vote. It sounded like a reminder message from my mom.
The Branco's/Maher's ANONYMOUS calls identified nobody, were completely negative, and were done by a voice that sounded like a mouth-breathing thug with swollen adenoids.
To paraphrase the '92 Clinton campaign: it's the negativity and anonymity, stupid.
Anon 4:17, I guess you haven't caught on. Sleaze does not work.
Just received Morganelli robo-call asking for support of Branco.
I know politics makes strange bedfellows, but we've learned in this election cycle that these guys are not so strange to each other.
You can tell a lot about someone by his friends, John.
Hmmm. Now let's see. Abe Atiyeh wouuld like to team up w/ the county and build some goofy combo assisted-living center and recidivism center. Noew Abe has a pal at the courthouse named John Morganelli. Abe has given John $51,000 over the years. Now Abe has a few other pals, too, like Tony Branco and Lamont McClure.
I admit that I contributed to John Morganelli's previous campaigns. However, his blind support to McClure and Branco has just made up my mind. No more. You just lost my support, John. And I don't believe I am the only one. The more I hear others talk about abandoning the Democratic ship, the worse it gets. It's a shame, really. It didn't have to be. It's time for a change tomorrow.
Well it paid for another negative sleazy last minute hit job on Peg Ferraro from some phony senior citizen claiming that Peg is going to reasses her property and drive seniors out of their homes. Branco is truly desparate and pathetic.
If Stoffa wants that minimum security prison, he will be forced to put it in uncle Abe's assisted living unless their is an exorcism tommorow.
I also don't get the Branco-Morganelli connection. John is very selective about who he will actually do anything for. A recorded call endorseing a candidate is quite a deal for him, frankly I'm a bit surprised even if there is a donor connection.
anon 4:187 - you kiss your momma, your wife, and your daughters with that mouth?
if you were smart enough, you'd be ashamed.
