Buffalo Pundit Endorses…
Although I realize that this is about as worthless and useless as just about anything, I still do it every year. Why? Because I feel like it! So, coming up Tuesday the 9th, I recommend voting for the following candidates:
1. NY-26 Democratic Primary: Jon Powers
This ought to come as no surprise. I have been in Powers‘ corner since I first met him and heard him speak in July 2007. This young, energetic, and smart man came back from service in Iraq to find a government that wasn’t working for average people – people he grew up with. When he returned, he set up War Kids Relief with the assistance of the Vietnam Veterans of America. The group was, at the time, the only organization that sought to raise awareness of, and assist Iraqi youth to work towards a future that seemed quite dim at the time. While sectarian violence worsened and the security situation in Iraq eroded, Powers realized that these kids were susceptible to becoming tomorrow’s terror threat. There was no palpable future for them in that environment, and he decided that through outreach and education, those kids could find hope again, and that the US could not only battle the terrorists on the military front, but prevent future terrorists from being created.
Many have questioned the motives and results of War Kids, but the fact remains that Jon Powers brought attention to an issue to which no one was paying any attention at the time. It was representative of the generous and open nature of America and her people, and it was a forward-thinking effort. It was also indicative of a young man who didn’t wait around for other people to do something.
Powers’ plan also includes a plank for national service. There is more to citizenship than just bitching and moaning about stuff. People need to get involved, and there are few things more noble than working for a cause greater than one’s own self-interest. AmeriCorps, Peace Corps, teaching, volunteerism, military service, nursing, mentoring, etc.; they’re all covered in Powers’ plan to encourage people to get more involved in civic affairs and their communities.
Powers says on the stump that there are officers who lead by rank, and there are officers who lead by example. For far too long, the 26th has been represented by a career politician who loved the pomp and circumstance that went along with his position, but had very little time for anything or anyone outside the Beltway. Powers is dramatically different than that. He’s not an arrogant anachronism of a CEO who is used to telling people what’s what without listening to them, and he’s not a longtime bigshot attorney who lies in debates and comes off as dismissive. I have no confidence that either of his opponents would listen. And ultimately, that’s what we want our representatives to do. He listens, he learns, he gets things done.
On the issues, Powers has adopted common-sense solutions to the energy crisis, education, health care, foreign policy, and a whole host of other problems that Western New Yorkers deal with on a daily basis. I have seen Powers travel throughout the district for over a year, not content to just impose his opinions on others, but to engage in a conversation and listening to people’s concerns and working together to come up with solutions that might improve their lot. This is what we want and expect from a representative in Congress. Jon Powers is no patsy to special interests. He’s a regular guy who’s running against self-funded millionaires on every side, and he without a doubt can stand up against outsiders, and in support of his prospective constituents.
It is with pride and honor that I endorse Jon Powers’ candidacy for the 26th Congressional district.
SD-61 Democratic Primary: Michele Iannello
In a crowded, heated primary race on the Democratic side, I heartily endorse my friend, Michele Iannello.
Michele is no career politician. She’s been in the Erie County Legislature for about 3 years, but in that short time she’s made a big impact. Quite simply, she had to come in and help to fix a catastrophic fiscal crisis, and she excelled at it. She joined with Kathy Konst and Cindy Locklear to propose a “Chinese menu” of reforms that, if implemented, would result in a more streamlined, cheaper, more transparent county government. Some of those reforms made their way to the revised County Charter, which Michele helped to formulate, and for which she voted. The people of Erie County approved that new Charter by a huge margin.
The winner of the Democratic primary will take on 20-year Erie County legislator, Republican Mike Ranzenhofer – a guy whose record with which I’m ridiculously familiar. If you put Iannello’s record of reform against Ranzenhofer’s record of not-a-lot, her selection as the Democratic nominee is a no-brainer. I am troubled by the 527 organization(s) spending insane amounts of money on behalf of her opponent, “Baby” Joe Mesi, and I have heard and met Dan Ward, and am not at this time willing to support a guy who has been on one of the more dysfunctional town boards for a long, long time, and has otherwise been something of a perennial candidate.
Iannello is the only candidate in this race who has blogged about 40 issues in 40 days that she’d like to go to Albany and implement. Issues. What a novel concept. Whether you agree or disagree with them, at least she’s putting them out there, which is a lot more than either of her opponents has done.
When asked what her biggest issue is:
Decreasing taxes and reducing spending in Albany so that businesses want to come here and create jobs. I will propose the same five steps for change I did with two colleagues in the Legislature: transparency, accountability, best practices, term limits in the legislature and ethics reform.
Iannello is the only candidate in this race with a record of pursuing and implementing real reform. She can do the same in Albany.
A-142 Republican Primary: No Endorsement
This a solely Republican race, and I can’t vote in it and therefore haven’t paid much attention to it at all. I think Mike Cole was sent to Albany to reform it and work hard for his constituency, but he blew it with his intern issue. Jane Corwin had pledged not to bring up Cole’s intern problem, but she brought it with a vengeance this week, and I can’t fathom why. Run on your record as a businesswoman and Cole’s lack of any real achievement. Hell, even bring up the intern thing if you feel you need it, but her ad this week was so brutally negative that I thought it went beyond the pale. Former Democrat Jeff Bono? Who knows. Len Roberto? He’s a bit extreme for my taste. So, hold your nose and vote for whomever you want.
A-144 Democratic Primary: Sam Hoyt
Sam Hoyt is not my hero. There is much to disdain and dislike about a guy who was born into great privilege and really, really screwed things up in the last 8 or so years with respect to his ethics. He has been in Albany and doesn’t have a real palpable record of change, and I don’t at all think that he really, truly understands the problems that fundamentally ail the economy of Western New York; high taxes, onerous regulations, unfriendly business climate. On the other hand, Sam does have a record of listening and taking action on behalf of his constituents. He has been an advocate on housing issues, social issues, problems affecting the city, and has been vocal on development, waterfront, and casino issues. He doesn’t just go to Albany to fraternize, he goes to Albany to try and make WNY a better place. He’s extremely responsive to constituent concerns and is always a phone call or email away.
But there’s a lot more to Albany than handing out pork. Land banking proposal good – pork not always so good. Reduction of taxes and spending good. Let’s give Sam another shot to go to Albany and have him move forward with Governor Paterson’s proposal to make state government leaner and cheaper. Sam, it’s a change and reform election. Make it happen.
With that said, when someone is subjected to an unfairly brutally negative campaign, I can’t just sit back and say “vote for the new person”. Barbra Kavanaugh’s campaign has been completely consumed by the Pigeon camp. They have engaged in such base, gutter campaign tactics that Hoyt’s own shortcomings pale by comparison. I don’t want Pigeon or Golisano leaking tawdry emails to websites in an effort to smear a politician. I don’t want phony websites or phony special interest groups set up in an effort to embarrass an opponent. It is by far the dirtiest, ugliest campaign waged in recent memory in Western New York, and the people behind it should be ashamed. Kavanaugh claims not to have been involved with these tactics, but she never gave much more than a token gee-isn’t-that-lame, and claimed not to have any clue about what was being done on her behalf.
If I was running in a race and someone who endorsed me went around smearing the living daylights out of my opponent, I’d be screaming bloody murder about it. That’s the template, as far as I’m concerned, and she didn’t even come close.
Clarence Town Justice: David Donohue (the only endorsed Democrat).
SD-59 Republican Primary: David DiPietro
While Sam Hoyt is an imperfect state legislator, over the past couple of years State Senator Dale Volker has become little more than a punch line. Whether he’s getting an aide to scream at Scott Brown, referring to an immigrant RIT Professor by a racially insensitive name, or whether he’s being a camera hog at the opening up of the I-190 tolls and getting into an argument with Donn Esmonde, pretty much everywhere Dale Volker goes, craziness follows. It’s really quite simple. Dale Volker is an ineffective thug.
Topping all that off, when former East Aurora Mayor David DiPietro announced that he was running for Volker’s seat, the Republican establishment didn’t just try and persuade him to sit this one out, it threatened him. Political office is not an entitlement. Dale Volker does not get to maintain his office just because his party and his aides bully the challenger and his supporters. Frankly, this type of intimidation is more sickening to me than whether or not Cole slept on an intern’s floor or Hoyt had affairs with interns.
DiPietro has been endorsed by gadfly Carl Paladino. He’s a small business owner who is affected by Albany’s broken policies; high taxes and onerous regulation. While Dale Volker has been in the State Senate for 36 years, the state has only declined further and further. He’s had two generations to get things in order, but he hasn’t. Instead, he sends out what amount to campaign lit at state expense and puts out ads that really underscore that the guy is brusque and doesn’t listen. DiPietro is a breath of fresh air in a district that is in desperate need of one.

So dump Volker … but give Hoyt yet another chance ?
unsuprising choices pundit, given all you’ve written in recent months.
i think powers/davis kind of doesn’t matter because chris lee will take the district in november. not because chris lee is so great, but because it is a republican district. which is also why i would give davis the slight edge in the primary.
joe mesi’s been a friend of mine for a long time and i believe would be superior to any of the candidates in the above mentioned congressional race. he has been an important asset to buffalo and western new york and put his money where his mouth is by turning down lucrative offers that would have resulted in his leaving the area. he’s a smart guy and a nice guy and some of the attacks on him by ignorant commentors here have made me angrier than anything else this primary season. the brain bleed stuff was beyond disgusting.
and which is worse; sam hoyt banging a pair of albany interns then lying about it or joe illuzzi telling people about it and providing incontrovertable evidence? i would posit the former. that, combined with his severely lackluster assembly record would disqualify hoyt in my eyes. and let’s face it, if he doesn’t lose this year, he’s in for life. that said, i know nothing whatsoever about barbara kavanaugh other than that she’s an out lesbian, which i consider a plus.
Hudson – you hypocritical jackass.
You post more bullshit and attacks than anyone – but get your panties in a knot when Mesi is the target ?
the brain bleed stuff, burke. just that. if he was blind would it be ok to make blind jokes? would i make one if i opposed him? it’s too early to fight john, let’s hear your endorsements.
First off … it’s NEVER too early to fight. Second – I recall you posting stuff about peoples’ families and children. Joe Mesi is a public figure/pro athlete, and while I agree that making light of a health problem may be in bad taste and offensive to the “normal” poster – you live by the sword you die by the sword so to speak.
Anyway … I am not a resident of those districts, but if I was :
“Crazy” Jack Davis – I agree with a lot of his positions. I guess I’m crazy too.
Mesi – anyone who punches a heckler right after announcing candidacy is ok in my book !
Kavanaugh – only because she’s not Hoyt
Volker – just because he makes me feel better when he’s around.
you crack me up burke. but it’s pretty clear somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed this a.m. go get some coffee. or better yet, a guinness.
Whats the over/under on Hudson’s BAC in this post?
Saints preserve us ! Is this a kinder/gentler Hudson ?
Funniest statement of the year on Hoyt: “He doesn’t just go to Albany to fraternize…..”
I can’t seem to find anyone who is for Volker except those on the receiving end of a Volker tax dollar pass, but that’s a huge number of people. Will the tax-payers vote?
How can you say that Powers is not a Patsy to special interests. His entire support base is union and DC establishment support. I’m not sure how he could be any more of a “patsy to special interests” if he tried. Of any candidate in the race, nobody owes more favors to special interests and to Washington insiders than Powers, and I guarantee that if he’s the guy, those favors will be called in.
BTW, something that hasn’t gotten much attention until todays article, but what does Powers do for a living? He claims to be a teacher, but has spent all of a couple days as a sub, and no longer even has a teaching certificate. That means he’s not a teacher, so what is he, besides a candidate? Does he have a career? $600 from subbing for a couple days doesn’t sound like a career. It sounds to me like this guy was chosen by the party establishment early on without really being vetted, and now it’s simply too late to dump him.
WNY has a lot of serious issues facing it, and it astounds me that we would even consider Powers as the guy to face them. I really think that Alice Kryzan deserves a second look, she’s incredibly bright, not beholden to special interests or party leaders, and it’s about time somebody made the green economy a central issue. She’s got my vote…
William, you couldn’t have laid it out any better. Jon Powers is not ready to serve in Congress – maybe in a few years, after some more real-world experience, but not now. Also, his story keeps changing about what he has done. Where Davis is on the issues is crazy. Kryzan has my vote and I’ve been talking to a lot of people that are leaning in the same direction. I think she will pull off a surprise win on Tuesday.
Joe Mesi seems like a good guy but often you are judged by the company that you keep. I would rather vote for somebody rather than against somebody but when it comes to someone who is associated so closely with Pigeon, even “none of the above” would be preferable. Joe, you lost my vote when you threw in with Pigeon. You seem like an honorable guy, but you chose to associate with a guy who consistently lowers level of politcal debate below the level of mudsligging. Make no mistake, many of the primary races are in essense a referendum on whether politics in WNY is going to slip futher in to depths of ugly Pigeon brand politics.
“William” and “Joe” are posting from the same IP. What a surprise.
BP,
What about the DA’s race?
Re; William & Joe.
So what if the same IP posted … can you refute what they said ? Would you have bothered to check their IP if they were pro-Powers ?
Powers, Kryzan and Davis have all been pounding this blog with fake commenters from their campaigns for the last two months and have done an AWFUL job of disguising it.
Mark my words. Two weeks from now 75% of the blogs ‘commenters’ will never be heard from again. The fact it’s taken this long for anyone else to call them out on it is depressing.
Then Davis better get his money back ! I could count the pro-Davis comments on this site on one hand. Powers, on the other hand …
I think you forgot to endorse…
http://www.thinkgeek.com/geektoys/cubegoodies/abea/zoom/
William Joe Sprezzatura?
What great analysis!!! I am heading to Vegas to bet the opposite on everyone of these. I might lose one, but that should leave me way ahead.
Hudson
Mesi’s bloody brain is absolutely fair game.
Brain injuries can effect someone’s performance in office or ability to remain healthy. Subdural Hematomas have a high rate of reoccurrence. If he bumps his head on something he could die or end up severely impared.
John McCain’s shoulder injuries are irrelevant. Bob Dole’s arm is irrelevant. Neither can effect their ability to govern. This can.
nobody in vegas takes bets on minutiae like this you moron.
oh, i get it, you were making a joke. yeah. funny.
I can’t agree more with your comments about Sam Hoyt. Well stated. While I’m holding my nose on Tuesday, I’m pulling Hoyt. A vote for Barbra (or Mesi for that matter) is a vote for the Viscount of All that is Wrong in Politics, Mr. G. Steven himself. Bleck.
It will be interesting to see if the State Dems throw money up our way – esp against Ranzenhofer, Prince of Donothingness. We’ve been telling ourselves it’s a D Year for so long, I’m sure we are going to screw it up. The super jinx, you know?
oh it’s my favorite non-person, little stephen nazwinko.
little stephen said that the population decline in the city of buffalo was 0.2 percent annually since 1970, and called joe mesi a “fucking moron” for saying erie county has lost 200,000 people since that time.
a quick check of u.s. census figures showed that county population dropped by 163,226 between 1970 and 2000, and that city population alone declined by 170,000 between 1970 and 2008.
so now little stephen wants to provide medical diagnoses when a quick check of his previous posted argument with mesi clearly showed which one’s brains were scrambled.
michelle ianello must be so proud to have you for a supporter, little stephen!
“We’ve been telling ourselves it’s a D Year for so long, I’m sure we are going to screw it up.”
but you already have, of course!
Pundit – we gonna talk Prez race this weekend? For anyone watching, two new polls which include Palin and McCain’s speeches.
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/us/general_election_mccain_vs_obama-225.html
Obama up 2 and 3. I don’t know how much more I can take! That’s statiscally TOO CLOSE TO CALL. I think I might have to unplug the TV and computer until after the general election.
BP,
I agree with your choices especially in regards to Sam..
I do not live in his district and he has always been a great help to us on the ES.Whenever you call or email him you will get a timely response no matter where you hail from..Yes he has made some mistakes but to step back and look at the big picture is to see the positives outweigh the negatives by far..
the race is too close to call in the realclearpolitics averages. obama lost between 3 and 8 points in the individual polls. nielsen shows more people watched the gop convention on tv than watched the dems, and rasmussen shows that palin is more popular among the american people than either mccain or obama. also, according to the associated press, obama is abandoning his “50 state strategy” to concentrate on places he needs to win but fears he will lose — michigan, ohio, pennsylvania and west virginia.
yes, everything is going along nicely according to the democratic plan!
To “William” and “Joe,” what part of Army Captain in a WAR ZONE in Iraq don’t you get? Talk about a resume. Read this before you decide that Powers doesn’t have leadership experience:
http://www.powersforcongress.com/main.cfm?actionId=globalShowStaticContent&screenKey=cmpServing&s=powers
Jon Powers has literally been under fire and he is a great leader who will do a wonderful job actually representing the voters of Western New York.
Kryzan, for all her legal credentials, does not sway me because she was on the wrong side of the Love Canal environmental disaster. She also gave vague answers about foreign policy at the debates at SUNY Geneseo. At this moment in our nation, we need more veterans in Congress, people who know how the military works and what questions to ask.
Finally, Jon Powers is very much supportive of green initiatives, protecting the environment and investing in alternative energy.
And, I’m a real person. You can see my work at http://www.thealbanyproject.com.
Is this what you been doing all day hudson? You should of been signing books at the peach festival. You could of filled up the caddy and got a carton of smokes on your way home.
I never really believed the 50 state strategy. I think they always knew it would come down to a few key states – Ohio, PA, CO, VA, MO, WI, FL…
In this day and age it’s all viral so I’m sure hitting up people in non-battleground states ads to the buzz and contagion. But in recent memory, it’s all been about a handful of states. Scares the hell out of me.
BP you need one of those cheesy countdown to the election tickers on the site. Something reeeeeeeeeally flashy.
dunno how the weather was in lewiston today, mike, but a few miles upriver here on beautiful rainbow blvd. it’s been cold & drizzly. even that great peach cobbler couldn’t get me out today!
anyway, had a paper to get out — we’re coming out monday this week — and am shining my shoes for the mesi fundraiser tomorrow.
“But in recent memory, it’s all been about a handful of states.”
yes. a handful of states obama lost to clinton in the primaries.
Hudson – That point about Obama losing to Clinton in key states is completely irrelevant. Clinton was beating McCain in those states. So losing to her wasn’t such a big deal as people like you want to make it out to be. Clinton was #1 and Obama was #2 to McCain’s 3rd. Bottom line, it will be tight and was going to be tight no matter who won the D primaries. I just hope it’s fair and square this time. Everytime I have to take money out of a Diebold ATM I vomit out the car window a little.

** I think I might have to unplug the TV and computer until after the general election.**
Yes, yes … a million times YES !
“Clinton was beating McCain in those states. So losing to her wasn’t such a big deal as people like you want to make it out to be. Clinton was #1 and Obama was #2 to McCain’s 3rd.”
that analysis is infantile because those states don’t allow cross-party voting in primaries and there are way more registered dems than registered repugs.
in the general, dems will be allowed to vote the gop line. clinton is far more conservative than obama. plus she said obama wasn’t qualified to be president, while mccain was. picking a novice nominee with a proven inability to win key battleground states in his own primary (something mccain did with boring regularity) will be something a lot of tearful dems will be taking a long look at should this go badly.
Hudson – If your vote mattered in the presidential election, I’d spend the time straightening you out. One good thing I can say about NYS is blue baby blue.
And to the tool who said I was a twit since I’m anti-excessive CO2 emissions. Take a read, moron.
http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/8/31/14917/5768/822/580904
While you people seem to loathe Steve Pigeon, not much of what he has brought forward in the Hoyt race has been disputed. Also, Hoyt’s people have been just as busy sending out filth ridden rumor mongering emails, they’re just terrible at it.
Hudson was absolutely right, if Hoyt makes it through this primary, he’s in for life. If Kavanaugh beats him, people can vote her out in two years when Golombek or someone with credentials decides to run. The fact that Hoyt throws the activists a bone on occasion and holds pointless hearings and meetings does absolutely nothing to justify his total uselessness in Albany. He is not a symptom of the problem in Albany, the likes of him ARE the problem. Entitled silver spoon frat boys who are never held accountable for their actions. The disdain for Volker should also be pointed at Hoyt, they’re cut from the same cloth.
Kavanaugh or anyone representing that district will do just the same as him. At least she won’t hassle the interns.
Looking at all these races, I think this sums up my endorsements nicely… http://i29.tinypic.com/9fv5nq.jpg
the presidential election will be decided in big states obama lost. can he regain them? the people who cling to guns and religion are working their hardest to make sure he doesn’t.
anyone who cites daily koz as a legitimate source for information about anything is so far gone from any sort of critical, rational thinking about the events of the day that they aren’t worth debating.
of course new york is a blue state, you moron. my vote doesn’t matter and neither does yours.
but it’s not new york we’re talking about, is it?
the only two successful democratic nominees in the past 48 years have been southern governors. our party insists on nominating ivy league senators.
who lose.
by nominating barack obama, the democratic party has shot itself in the foot. again. what should have been a slam dunk election victory was instead turned into a nail biter, all because the radical faction of the party — our own religious right except they’re not religious at all — insisted on nominating a man correctly identified by former new york mayor rudy guiliani as “the least qualified” presidential contender in the past century.
so good luck with it. another four years of republican rule will be a fucking disaster, and one that could easily have been avoided.
sarah palin nailed obama when she pointed out that he had time to write two autobiographies but has never authored a single important piece of legislation in the senate.
all hat, no cattle.
again.
hudson, why wont palin show up for any news interviews? Is it because she would crumble? Anyone who quotes Rudy as a legitimate source for information about anything is so far gone from any sort of critical, rational thinking about the events of the day that they aren’t worth debating. Were sorry mike if your afraid of an intellegent black man, but rudy guiliani as “the least qualified” presidential contender in the past century, excuse me where is Bush on this list? Could he be 1 right now? Just start putting some coupons in your paper, because I am sick of picking up bottles on the side of the road.
hudson, why wont palin show up for any news interviews? Is it because she would crumble?
Mike you better look closer, because from everything i’ve seen–including an hour with clips from an Alaska documentary done in april this year–this broad is not afraid of ANYTHING.
Her speech delivery shows she has the ability and timing of the Messiah himself.
When you run against the machine of your own state party, instead of being a cog IN the machine of your party like Obama is, and you still manage to win, and you have an 80% approval rating as your states governor–when was the last time any NY governor enjoyed an 80% approval rating–what part of NEVER would that be I’m not sure.
There’s more to Sarah Palin than meets the eye. And the sooner you see it, the sooner you’ll realize what kind of trouble the inexperienced boy Ivy League Senator and his running mate the OLD Ivy league Senator are actually in.
obama is, without question, the least qualified, certainly of those who actually became president, in history.
1.) he never owned a business.
2.) he never commanded men in the military.
3.) he never held any executive job of any sort for even one day.
4.) in the current congress, he has not cast any vote on 45% of the legislation that has come before him.
5.) in the illinois state legislature, where alumni are historically more likely to end up in the federal penitentiary than in high federal office, he was known for his “present” votes & refusing to take a stand one way or another on issues.
6.) rudy guiliani, in his first term, was a great mayor. that is why he was overwhelmingly re-elected. ask anyone who lived there at the time, mr. west seneca. he threw yasser arafat out of the metropolitan opera for chrissakes.
7.) daily koz was reporting two weeks ago that sarah palin had not given birth to the down syndrome child she gove birth to, and that the child was bristol palin’s. even the fucking national inquirer isn’t that bad.
I don’t know who said it but it’s funny.
Shouldn’t they wait to take Sarah Palin to Dick Chenney’s undisclosed location until after the election?
Dan Quayle in a dress. All of the Bush and Rove staffers running McCain’s campaign know it. She’s going to hide as long as she can before she opens her mouth and says something unscripted. Oh, and completely stupid. (Visual: Mushroom cloud)
just keep not taking them seriously, buffalomom. that is exactly what they’re counting on. the dems field their weakest presidential ticket since 1988 and buffalomom says “what, me worry?”
that funny dan quayle guy ended up being the vice president, doncha know.
Hey Buffalomom : I recall a while back someone asking you about that Kozlowski woman you were gushing over. They asked you for a link to her website, or anywhere her views could be seen. You never replied. How about it ?
