So, this open New York senate seat and the selection process has been screwed up to a fair thee well, and now we’re at the he said/she said part of any good scandal. I can hear the great Ed Koch mocking it on the news as I write this. And of course Pete King, Congressman [...]

There are still a few more Senate seats that need to be determined (Al F’n Franken), and of course the most important one is Hillary Clinton’s once she gets approved to be Obama’s Secretary of State. According to the New York Post, the JBdotC paper of record, Gov. Patterson has settled on…wait for it…CAROLINE KENNEDY! [...]

It’s hard to be a Republican in New York. We’re not exactly what you would call a “purple state.” I mean, the GOP has got some game. We’re not Massachusetts (or California). However, we have seen better days. On top of all this, we have a Democrat Governor who was never elected by the people [...]

New York still doesn’t have someone lined up to replace Sen. Hillary Clinton once she moves to the State Department, and there’s a rumour circulating aboot someone named Caroline Kennedy who might be interested in the job. I’m not that familiar aboot who this Caroline Kennedy is, but apparently people know her family, and according [...]

Princess Caroline hasn’t even been coroneted as the next Senator of New York yet, and she already has an opponent for the 2010 special election…Congressman Pete King. So sayeth the man in a recent New York Magazine article… “I have been talking to a lot of people around the state. Giuliani is supporting me. The [...]
The Wheels Come Off Camelot v2.0

Sweet Caroline BAH BAH BAH, good times never felt so good (so good, so good, so good)… I’ve always looked at the open New York Senate seat in that David Patterson could nominate a horse if he wanted to, and I’m voting for Pete King in 2010 regardless, so I never really thought much aboot [...]
Geraldine Ferraro Hates Fairy Tales

With Hillary Clinton being appointed to the BAM Administration, that leaves an empty seat to be appointed by New York Governor David Patterson (you know, when he’s not raising our taxes on beer and iTunes). And you may not have heard, but the leading contestant is Caroline Kennedy. Everyone loves the “fairy tale” aspect of [...]
The King vs. Camelot

While the national media, relative to the open NY Senate Seat, keeps throwing around the names Caroline Kennedy and Andrew Cuomo, our local Long Island newspaper had article reminding everyone that, as much as the media wishes it were otherwise, there is still a Republican Party and our nominee for Senator is Rep. Peter King. [...]
