| How did I miss this one? It seems that dozens of angry GOP protestors turned up at the Islip Republican Party HQ on Monday night to demand that Senator Caesar Trunzo (R-FL) step down as the Islip GOP boss. Check this out:
Islip dissidents mass to call for Trunzo's ouster
About 65 unhappy Islip Republicans turned out in the sweltering heat Monday night in front of the party's Third Avenue headquarters in Bay Shore to ask Caesar Trunzo to step down as town GOP leader.
Frank Tratone, one of the leaders of the group which calls itself "21st Century Republicans," said Trunzo has "guided the party through one disaster after another," and has no plans for fundraising for anyone other than himself through Election Day.
Tratone said the new group is planning its own fundraiser, and will reach out to candidates and offer support. "It's not too later to save the this party," said Tratone, "Brookhaven Republicans changed leadership and recptured the majority on the town board. We will do it too."
Actually, it might indeed be too late to save that party and the fact that folks like Trunzo have kept their hands on the wheel so long isn't helping their cause.
Also, check out these choice comments to the article above:
It's time for Caesar Trunzo to pass the torch to the new young leaders of the Islip Republican Party and concentrate his efforts on getting re-elected to the NY State Senate. He should act as the elder statesman for the new leaders.
It appears as though what is holding things up is that Trunzo is insisting on being able to hand pick his successor. It also appears as though Trunzo's close circle of advisors are pushing their own personal agendas rather than looking out for the interests of the Republican Party.
Who is left without a hearing problem or without self interest to snuggle up to Caesar's butt? All of his advisors are wheeled into 3rd Avenue by their nurses and all dislike him as he sits there licking his fingers like one who is demented. They are all phoneys.
How many times do people have to tell Caesar its time to go? He is a stubborn old man who needs to relize (sic) his time is up.
Ouch. |
