Well THIS seems to say it all. You judge a man by the company he keeps, and Mr. Babinec looks right at home with Our Local Republican Elite.
You know Our Local Republican Elite ... The Ones always looking for that next big grant for that next "big project" that will solve our woes -- but never does . . . . The Ones who claim to work for you and me but have no problem giving us the highest taxes in the nation, putting us further into debt, and increasing water and sewer fees. . . . The Ones who constantly build more stuff for "economic development" that we do not need but have to maintain ... The Ones who won't hesitate to take your property to keep their schemes going . . . The Ones who will happily back a Democrat over a Republican (or split a Republican vote to elect a Democrat) if it keeps the money moving . . . The Ones who refuse to accept the decision of the Republican rank-and-file to support Ms. Tenney as their candidate, because they do not want their apple carts upset.
For all the hundreds of millions of dollars that have been brought into our area supposedly for us, only the connected are better off.

The old adage of " follow the money" applies to the politics of our area in spades. Their is no actual two party system at all. There is one party called the "ins" and the other the "outs." The "ins" control the money and the patronage. It is one club. Guess who is not a club member? Claudia Tenney. The "ins" need her to lose because she will not play their money control game. It is the simple. Even if they wind up electing Kim Myers, they will be rid of Tenney and Babinec will become the next Republican candidate of the "ins." The Tenney election will be a giant step for both reform and returning true democracy to the area.
Roll over that list of names in the announcement
Add up all the time in office and all the promises that they've made
Then give me actual accomplishments for the people of this district
They should be ashamed to call themselves Republicans
And ashamed of how little they've done
If someone can dispute this then go right ahead
I'll be voting for Ms Tenney
Anyone who has read any of Zogby's weekly "Report Cards" on Obama knows he is anything but an independent. More like an Obama cheerleader and propagandist. Our Oneida County "Republican" committee ceased being Republican a long time ago and they sure as hell aren't Conservative. I was a member of TARs (Teenage Republican) before I was able to vote, volunteering and stuffing envelopes for Real Republicans campaigns. The Republican Committee and many of our local elected officials might as well replace the "R" after their names with a big "D" for "disloyal". The voters spoke during the Primary. They rejected the lies and smears thrown against Claudia Tenney. Now the Committee is rejecting the will of the voters. After we elect Claudia to Congress, I would urge all Republican voters to seriously consider who you vote for the next time these people appear on a ballot.

One of the most gratifying aspects of the Tenney win will be the utter rejection of the old, insiders like Boehlert who could not make a dime in the real world. The sad thing is that we will be paying their pensions for a long time.
An old quote from RINO Boehlert: "I call on my fellow Republicans to open their minds to rethinking what has largely become our party's line: denying that climate change and global warming are occurring and that they are largely due to human activities."
So guess who moved to Maryland and made millions off this hoax.
Now he endorses Babinec, the "job creator" who opposes fracking that has charged the economies of PA and Ohio with thousands of good paying jobs, knowing full well that the Yale University study done one year ago found no verified cases of drinking water wells being contaminated by fracking.
Windmills (no power when the wind doesn't blow) and solar (no power when the sun doesn't shine) are surviving on subsidies while the abundant natural gas we have in NY can provide all of our power 24 hours a day.
Trump/Tenney, 8 votes in my household Mr.Zogby
One would be hard pressed to produce a list with a greater number of phonies than the Babinec invite. But, guess what? We elect and elect them. They laugh all the way to the bank to cash their huge pension checks.
Hopefully Tenney will win & a movement will be started whereby the likes of Picente, Joseph & others of their ilk will finally be given their walking papers by the voters. And anyone who listens to Boehlert should have their head examined. That clown left the area years ago, so why is he sticking his nose into this race, unless there's a quick buck in it for him.
Boehlert has moved back. He lives at Prestwick Glen. He evidently did not like being a nobody in the DC/Rehoboth communities.
Anon, 11/3, Apparently Prestwick Glen will rent to anybody.
It just occurred to me the reason why Picente was at the reception. They needed somebody there to wait on Boehlert I.e. get his drinks, server his meal, hold the chair for him when he headed off to the men's room, chauffer him back & forth to Prestwick, etc. Once the reception was over Picente was elected to wash Boehlert's car. Nice job Tony. Somebody had to do it.
Picenti has been a goffer his entire adult life which has been spent in politics. He has served Meir, Pataki, Boehlert and Halbritter. The only job he can handle is the one he has now since in actuality the County Executive has very little to do. Why we pay what we do is an amazement and is testimony to the very dull brained local voter.
Looking at Boehlert, it must be concluded that the food at Prestwick Glenn is very good.
Well, he's dining on the taxpayer's dime. Only the best for area elitists! Course, the rest of us have to eat "cake".
The Tenney win may be the start of major political reform around here. We sure need it!
Start the process of cleaning out the entrenched, corrupt and ineffective politicians we have continued to put in office. Ms Tenney was the first step and hopefully we can move in the right direction so people like Mr Griffo will not run unopposed and unchallenged in having to defend an empty political career
Has Tony been able to wipe the egg off his face now that Tenney wiped the floor with their boy on Election Day? How about Boehlert? In any case, they can console each other.
