Cherny vs. Waldman

stuartOkay, someone wanted to talk about it, and to give us a break from the Poopy-Villar battles, lets talk about as obscure a race as you can.

We hear that longtime Valley political activist, Bob Hertzberg staffer and current Chief of Staff to Lloyd Levine, Stuart Waldman, is planning to run for the Valley Glen Neigbhorhood Council.

AndreiWe also hear that former Assembly candidate (who lost the nomination to Levine) and former Al Gore speechwriter Andrei Cherny is also considering running.

If you have any insight into this exciting race, we'd love to hear it.

UPDATE: Stuart Waldman has informed us he is not running for the Neighborhood Council, but looks forward to seeing everyone at Antonio's victory party on Tuesday night.

Since Stuart is out of the race, Mayor Sam will now start the "Draft Hal Netkin" for Valley Glen NC Campaign. Yes, Hal does not live in the district, but I believe he has carried some of his picket signs through Valley Glen, which should make him a stakeholder. Particularly because his sign was attached to a stake and he was holding it at the time.

I had to delete the first comment for being off topic and for being a cut and paste about some dumb Tony Villar tape.

Get with the program folks - you can blab about Poopy and Villar all you want - but try to stay on post.

(Hence this makes the new first post to this article sort of meaningless, but he was referring to the cutter and paster).

Hypocrite - Didn't you (Mayor Sam) post this earlier on ANOTHER thread:

"5) Who gives a fuck if Stuart Waldman runs against Andrei for the Neighborhood Council? What does that have to do with this post? Who gives a shit about Valley Glen? What are they going to do? Talk about the new $3 movie theatre in Valley Plaza? Get more folks to join the Ballys on Victory Blvd? For Christ's sake? Lets find something more interesting to do."

YEAH, this IS all about distraction. ADV went whoop, whoop, whoop in a heli-chopper, and nobody in the city but the pilot gives a rats ass.

Hahn is the new "poster-boy" for recovering quickly from a BAD underdog status in the primary, and people LOVE a scrapper making a comeback. They ROOT for the guy tunneling up from hell. They VOTE for the man with a mission (while Terrified Tony hides behind his overpriced, uncreative mouthpieces and shits his pants when LAUREL ERICKSEN asks him about some past vote or letter of support).

To hell with "corruption" L.A. is starting to say (again), I want the "fighter" in office, not the sissy la la mambo partner.

Unpack that box on the top of your dusty city council desk, ADV.

You AIN'T going anywhere, just yet.

The people decide, and you're looking more and more like a nancy-boy EVERY day (and there's still SIX DAYS left, lightweight!)

Here's what we KNOW as facts, and everything else is unproven polling and posturing.

Hahn's never lost a citywide race.

ADV has never won a race outside of his own, insulated, homeboy district.

He's NOT Mr. Consensus, he's NOT a "visionary" and he does NOT roll up his sleeves and ALL that's being reported MORE and more every day... media, word-of-mouth, and massive non-stop phone banking to the most tender, fence-straddling portions of ADV's reluctant paper-thin coalition.

Boom, boom, boom... Tony's on a slip-and-slide that Hahn's short-sheeted, and the hard cold driveway underneath is coming up FAST!

DAILY BREEZE

Villaraigosa's donors in Florida raise eyebrows; L.A. mayoral candidate's fund-raising swings through Miami bring to light shady characters and others who have business interests in Los Angeles.
By David Zahniser
Copley News Service

For Los Angeles mayoral candidate Antonio Villaraigosa, it was a whirlwind day of campaigning -- a flight to Miami followed by three back-to-back fund-raisers with members of that city's business elite.

Villaraigosa's Florida allies used the April 13 visit to promote him as a rising political star.

But some of the participants in those fund-raisers have been drawing unwelcome attention in Miami and Los Angeles, both for their private sector transactions and their public political dealings.

With Florida fund raising now serving as a major theme of Mayor James Hahn's campaign against Villaraigosa, the councilman has had to defend his appearance with supporters who include:

•Home builder Sergio Pino, who co-hosted Villaraigosa's first Miami event. Pino faced questions last year after he held a fund-raiser for Miami-Dade's top prosecutor, just as her staffers were reviewing his daughter's case for felony cocaine possession. The case was later dropped.

•Lobbyist Sylvester Lukis, a co-host of Villaraigosa's second event, who was indicted on federal bribery charges and acquitted. While he was found not guilty of all 10 charges in 1997, his wife was convicted of mail fraud in the same case and was serving a 27-month prison sentence until former President Clinton freed her in the final weeks of his presidency.

•Sean Anderson, president of Travel Traders, a hotel gift shop company whose employees and associates gave Villaraigosa at least $47,000. District Attorney Steve Cooley is investigating whether money laundering was involved in the contributions, which Villaraigosa has chosen to return.

•Developer Richard Meruelo, a businessman whose family has given Villaraigosa more than $100,000. Meruelo, who attended two of the Miami events, is battling the Los Angeles Unified School District over the site of a proposed high school.

•Meruelo's brother, Homero Meruelo Jr., who also attended Pino's event but did not make a contribution. He was convicted of insurance fraud more than a decade ago.

Hahn camp questions judgment

Hahn's top campaign adviser argued that the Miami trip raises questions about Villaraigosa's judgment.

"When he went out to Florida, he assembled a rogues' gallery of questionable characters, and it raises more and more doubts about why are these people investing their money in Antonio for mayor," said Hahn spokesman Kam Kuwata.

Villaraigosa spokesman Nathan James said there was nothing unwise about the councilman's fund-raising trip. Any criticism from Hahn over that trip is an attempt to distract voters from his "failed record of leadership, his broken promises and his own multiple federal and state investigations of his administration," James added.

"What was unwise was Jim Hahn appointing his chief fund-raiser as head of the proprietary departments" -- the harbor, airport and Department of Water and Power, James said in a reference to former Deputy Mayor Troy Edwards. "That's an action he took as mayor that he's never fully explained."

Hahn has spent the past week running attack ads on the fund-raisers in Florida, a state whose politics have been the subject of newspaper investigations and federal corruption probes for a decade. One Miami Herald columnist argued last year that lobbyists had turned Miami's airport into a "suck-hole of avarice, favoritism and waste."

Meanwhile, Richard Meruelo and other Villaraigosa backers voiced disgust that Florida fund raising has become a focus of Hahn's campaign.

"Hahn has nothing better to talk about," said one supporter, Miami media consultant Jose Cancela. "Florida's always good for a few political jokes."

One Miami event was co-hosted by Pino, whose company, Century Duty Free, was targeted by Miami-Dade's inspector general in 2002 for its handling of a contract at Miami International Airport. The report concluded that Pino and his three partners received $14.6 million but provided no services.

Backer was involved in Miami inquiry

Pino was also the subject of a Miami New Times article last year that focused on his July 22 fund-raiser for State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle, the top prosecutor for Miami-Dade. The event occurred a few weeks after his daughter, 24-year-old Jacqueline Pino, was arrested on charges of felony cocaine possession and resisting arrest.

Pino's daughter was apprehended outside a Miami Beach nightclub after her friend, 20-year-old Vanessa Gonzalez, got into an altercation. As Gonzalez was being arrested, Jacqueline Pino removed a Ziploc bag of cocaine from her friend's pocket, and was then arrested herself, according to a police report.

Pino threw a fund-raiser for Rundle weeks later, even as prosecutors were reviewing his daughter's case. Pino confirmed in a New Times interview that the event was at his office and said he went ahead with it because he knew the arrest had been a mistake.

Rundle's office dropped the case on Aug. 6, saying it did so because Miami Beach police officers had failed to show up for meetings on the case. In a memo, a Rundle aide also said the cases were too minor to justify the "considerable time, effort and expense."

However, Miami Beach police spokesman Bobby Hernandez said his agency considered the felony charges serious and wanted to pursue them, but tried without success to coordinate with Rundle's office.

Pino could not be reached for comment Monday and Tuesday. But Cancela, who sits on the board of Pino's company, described the timing of the fund-raiser as "pure coincidence," adding that Pino has held several events for Rundle.

In another case involving a fund-raising co-host for Villaraigosa, Lukis and his wife, Lee County Commissioner Vicki Lopez-Lukis, were indicted on 10 counts of bribery. Prosecutors asserted that Lukis funneled money to Lopez-Lukis -- his girlfriend at the time -- as he persuaded her to award a county contract for his client, according to court documents.

Lukis was found not guilty after the couple argued that they were only trying to cover up their relationship. But a jury found that his wife had "knowingly and willfully devised a scheme to defraud the citizens of Lee County of their intangible right to ... honest services," according to court records.

Asked about the case, Lukis said his legal history is irrelevant to Villaraigosa's campaign and argued that his wife has already paid a major debt to society.

Meruelo argued that his brother's criminal history is unconnected to the campaign.

"(Hahn) is just desperate," he added. "He just wants to mar Villaraigosa in the eleventh-and-a-half hour."

Are there TWO ADV's out there, because it MUST be the OTHER one that ALL of the city's professional print media is following around.

Still, every day, like before -- their rote write-ups say:

"Hahn's rival did not offer specifics for his proposal" (i.e., it's NOT really a proposal, it's a hair-brained SCHEME no on has spent more than 5 minutes concocting and ADV spent 30 seconds memorizing the SPIN for).

This guy is NOT an "outsider" like Hertzberg or Alarcon were. He's been TAKING a city paycheck for TWO years... he SHOULD be past the "trainee" stage, and know how things work and what WILL and WON'T work under the cities charter, rules, and regulations.

Or, maybe you haven't been paying attention in committee, Mr. ADV?

OH, you were out campaigning when we covered that? Your dog ate your policy proposal? You had the MIAMI FLEW??? That lightweight, propped-up, wound-up, EMPTY SUIT, wouldn't know a legitimate proposal if it bit him in the campaign wallet!

What did ADV KNOW about city operations and WHEN did he know it?

Nothing - Never!

And "answering questions???" Please, I got too much agita to EVEN try and explain how many answers ADV does NOT have to EVEN his own manufactured history of accomplishments.

Because of course we KNOW only Tony V. the beloved, the benevolent, the charismatic, can inspire confidence and have a following that TRULY believes in his capabilities (all others pay Florida funny money).

Yours -- my fine flunkie of the empty suited-one -- is the most DANGEROUS and self-destructive delusion of all. If you believe that ALL around you are devout idealists and well-meaning partisans and ALL those on the opposing side are just mercenary flunkies that will run at the first sight of blood - THAT is the beginning of an ignominious defeat.

"Yeah, Gen. MacArthur, we can whip them little Japs overnight -- they all wear thick glasses and can't see well enough to fly planes, let alone sink our ships!"

Glub, glub glub...

Mayor Hahn screwed up his courage and made hard decisions while in office for the past four years; councilmember Villaraigosa just "screwed" the people of his district for two years. Period.

P.S. And for any OTHER nearsighted late arrivals that want to pop up and say "you're OFF topic, you're off topic... I'm gonna TELL!" Note the update -- the topic has already been declared null & void (plus it was just a planned distraction from ADV's rapid slide in the public mind).

Hey, Isn't Jenny the girl Antonio is having the affair with? I thought you guys said Antonio got rid of her. Guess he needs his little ego stroked. She's half his age. No wonder she hangs out so much at the campaign office. How about Jimmy Blackman's side girlfriend. What was her name??

Wasn't Ponce already ousted from a commission position for incompetence?

Baca had to endorse Tony because they are both hanging on strings being pulled by the same puppeteer. Parke Skelton is also Baca's consultant. Baca had to endorse because he's the one keeping June from the Venice Room's police report from coming out. Parke trains his little Mexican lapdogs very well. Haven't you seen Cindy Montanez sniffing Tony's butt lately, she's another Parke chihuahua.

Hey Anons at 3:58 and 4:06:

So, Irene decides to ask her friends to come out and help on the campaign and that is somehow a bad thing? Irene is working on the ground campaign and has decided to take the last couple of days to fully volunteer on this effort. Maybe if you Yahnistas did the same your numbers would be different.

Baca can endorse anyone he wants. ALADS has not made a move on this race. You’re only kidding yourself if you think Bratton ever asked his officers who he should endorse or whether they think it’s appropriate for him to be campaigning for Yahn.

And enough with the sexual lies - don't start something that will only embarrass your candidate.

Mustang, Enrique Gasca, "the sexual lies will embarrass our candidate"? Do you know who you are backing. Tony has left visual, verbal and indisputable evidence of his sexual misdeeds. For being educated, that blind faith is sure making you look dumb. Every Eastside activist knows Tony's past, why do you think you're all alone on this one - oh I forgot, there's also Alvin Parra. What a joke - you're the one embarassing yourself. Can't wait until Huizar declares, he sure picked a winner by picking you.

I think you all are missing a great topic. We should be talking about how awesome Stuart Waldman is and what a tool Andre Cherney is.

'Stang spits this out: "Maybe if you Yahnistas did the same your numbers would be different."

First of all, "her friends" was an all area listserv with about 1,000 readers on ALL sides of the political fence (and we're NOT all friends of that "looney-tune") -- especially since she got the TRO slapped on her assaulting for some peaceful neighbors and their property with a bucket of paint, AND the Hollenbeck boys in blue had to take time out from chasing down cable-TV heralded murderous gang-bangers to revoke her "carry permit" and confiscate her sidearm. You getting the picture here, horse-toothed jackass??

THEN, when you're trying to paint a picture that all is rosy, and HAHN is the desperate one, you DON'T put out an APB for all hands on PUBLIC listservs that sounds like it's do-or-die if the faithful, PLUS all their out-of-town company don't phone bank in ADV's supposed "stronghold" where he is also "supposed" to be enjoying a whopping 81 percent approval rating (HA, and DOUBLE-HA!), because, the "other" side might get WIND OF YOUR PANIC.

THEN, finally, and most importantly -- as far as the numbers are concerned, baby child... take a PEEK (or peak, in ADV's case, because he did)... it's been ALL over the news. ADV's numbers are going DOWN and Hahn's are going UP!

Maybe that's because you ADV-lovers have got CERTIFIABLES with TRO's stuck to their jackets at the precint, out phone-banking, and begging OTHERS to do the same, in the public square.

My guess is, calls from this type of rabid 72-hour-hold graduate come across more like obscene phone calls -- to the fence sitters -- who end up listening to people like HER drool over ADV's non-accomplishments.

If you want ADV's numbers to start rolling back up MAYBE you ought to think about slapping a TRO on a couple of the more rabid mouth-foamers and put them back to work destroying Hahn signs on Huntington Drive in the wee hours!

(This is also the same groupie that two years ago was running around to every CM candidate forum in NELA pouncing on ADV, himself, during the audience question portions screaming "How can you and the ACLU oppose gang injunctions when our streets are overrun with murdering criminals..." (and ripping down "Villaraigosa for CM" signs when she thought NO one was looking. So, you see, HER credibility in particular is a BIT suspect, at this point.

Maybe that's how you have to work it -- switch to the ADV side, but FIRST buy a gun to keep at home, because you KNOW he's not going to do ONE DAMN THING about escalating homicides right where YOU live.

(Of course there haven't been ANY where ADV lays his head... well, where he lays his head MOST nights, anyway.)

I think the connection with Baca and Antonio is the fact they both wrote letters to get Vignali off. I'm sure his deputies want to kick his ass for endorsing an old time gangster who still supports the very people they want to put away.

Antonio insulted his very own constituents being AGAIN on the westside talking about crime when he has 16 homicides in his own district. Antonio has missed more council meetings but now he and Parks and Weiss are missing all this week. The three stooges deserve eachother

Just "waiting" for that SNAPPY retort... from the rabid ADV-lovers. You KNOW it's coming, because they've REALLY been running on empty the last two weeks since they found out ADV is "corrupt" himself!

What will be be today?

"ANTONIO'S GOING TO WIN, so just get OVER it you "haters" (sniff, sniff).

Oh maybe better yet...

"Take a pill, Yawnistas -- it's time for your medicine"

(They're ALWAYS so clever with their canned comebacks!) Just can't wait... maybe they'll tell us to "read the handwriting on the wall" -- again (it's been weeks since that weak one was posted).

Hey loser, no matter how hard you type, type, type, in six short days your boy Hahn is going to have his head handed to him on a plate. How does it feel to know so far ahead of time that he is going to lose? I just wish I could see you on election night - I bet you're going to cry like a little girl. Hahn hasn't even put up a good fight - his campaign has been an embarassment. I bet that Hahn's "team" is going to have a very difficult time getting jobs after this debacle.

5:02 p.m. Yet another one, how? My how this type does cling to ADV. Looking for the "daddy" figure, or something. . .

I guess you don't have to be crazy to support Tony V., but it would help smooth out the long, bumpy periods where most people have to suspend disbelief. About the 200th time he says he's "rolling up his sleeves" and NONE of his supporters ask "to do what? -- specifically?" it WOULD help to have forgotten to have filled the Rx that week.

DAMN, I knew there was another trite overused expression ADV's creativity challenged posters used. I forgot "head handed to you on a plate." I better make a longer short list next time.

WOW, if Hahn hasn't put up a good fight, and ADV's hemorragging votes by the tens of thousands every damn day, then it just must be ADV's own lack of accomplishments and real answers that's hurting him so badly. ALL the better... when the late hit comes, he won't even have the strength left to turn his two-faced head.

PLEASE, I beg you. Tell me "Hahn is toast!" I miss that one SO much, you clever cliche-masters. Ivy league English majors, every one of you at the ADV blog bureau, am I right?

They won't be six SHORT DAYS Tony-worhipper. ADV has been down this Green Mile before. He's sweating every second out, looking over at his overpaid campaign hacks thinking. Yeah, those are the SAME guys that told me we were as good as in, this time FOUR YEARS AGO.

Then they went on to their next paid campaign, and I looked like three-day-old french toast stuck to the plate in the dishwasher... all washed up, but still a sticky mess.

That's right Mayor Sam set up that other blog just like he set up Hahn watch to keep the Hahnistas and ADV folks distracted. Its a damn conspiracy I tell you!!

Well then that would mean just six short days until ADV finally starts earning his FIRST city paychecks, stolen from one of the poorest districts for TWO FULL years, during which time he took credit for PUBLIC WORKS-sponsored work days, as his ONLY stinking accomplishment, and did NOTHING more than maneuver to run for mayor, "on the clock."

Let's see, SEVEN one-half day work days. Even if he DID stay and work for the full time, that means ADV's rate for pushing brooms is about $10,000 dollars an hour!

GEE no one wonder he want's a raise and promotion. At those SLAVE LABOR wages, he can BARELY make ends MEAT. Cesar Chavez would be SO disappointed with Tony for settling for less-than minimum conman wages like that.

Si se ROBE, Antonio... is that the new mantra for YOUR little (labored) movimiento?

I gurantee you that the site
http://finallysayithere.blogspot.com is not a distraction. It was done for the purpose of reposting those comments that Mayor Sam won't allow here and suddenly get deleted. If your posts gets deleted here, then repost it on the other site. Still, this site should be the main focus, all media does read into this site. Again, only repost what you think Mayor Sam won't let you post here or what he has deleted. Any affairs, go for it, I don't care it's freedom of speech.

Only Stuart would be the one to keep asking posters to get back on topic. The topic of him.

Anyone with brains would choose Andrei over him.

Apparently there were not enough voters with brains to choose Andrei over Lloyd Levine for Assembly.

Why would you bother to post under a "Cherny vs. Waldman" subject line and then whine about going back to the "real election"?

Can you just ONLY read and respond to the subject lines that won't bore you and leave the rest of us to respond to what we want?

Stuart Waldman couldn't win a neighborhood council election if his own boss, Hertzberg, endorsed Cherny INSTEAD of Waldman back during that assembly race. What does that tell you? So Cherny lost and went on to bigger things and Stuart had to stay in his same old job. New boss (albeit a better one), same office.

From assembly race to neighborhood council. Sounds like he's moving up in the political world.

That same old job is as a "Chief of Staff". One of 80 Assembly Chief's of Staff. What do you do?

Don't be silly. Of course Lloyd Levine kept Stuart on. He is so nice that he probably felt bad that Hertzberg endorsed him instead of Stuart.

If I wanted you to know what "I" did, (and I've never tried to get a "Chief of Staff" position) then this wouldn't be an anonymous blog right?

So, it doesn't matter what I do. The blog is about Stuart vs Cherny.

The fact is that I personally know that Cherny was in the Valley for long after his Assembly campaign. I saw him frequently at Dem events. He didn't leave until he went to go work for Kerry. And were any of us really against getting rid of Shrub!?!?

The only thing that is "awesome" about Stuart is the size of the behind he has developed sitting around and doing nothing on the government payroll for 10 years...
