A few weeks ago, our old Red Clownty friend Jerbal let slip top-secret info that Republicans were going to be joining John Lewis in support of Tom Daly for County Supervisor. Later on his own blog he posted the invitation to Daly’s St. Patrick’s Day fundraiser but failed to post the back side of the flier that listed the “host committee” and, presumably, the vaunted Republican ship-jumpers who are attracted to Daly’s bi-partisan appeal.
Okay, we know that Jerbal was just shilling for his boss Lewis and was either protecting these stalwart conservatives, or, as is more likely the case, just embarrassed by the lack of any real Republican support for Daly – despite the script that his puppet master had given him.
Well, we’re not so shy. Here is page two of Daly’s invitation. Once the professional lobbyists like John Lewis, Ruby Wood, and Lyle Overby are removed see if you can identify a single prominent GOP supporter.
Of course the union leaders (Jerbal used to refer to them as goons and thugs before pulling down the blanket and inviting them in) Wayne Quint, Nick Berardino, and Joe Kerr are prominently featured.
Jerbal wants us to believe that the Daly juggernaut has broad bi-partisan support. In realty it is a collection of lobbyists, government camp followers, and public employee union leaders. And this will evaporate like a spring frost if Galloway enters the race.
As they say, the truth will out. It remains to be seen how the GOP will respond to this effort to hijack the party by Daly’s new pal Lewis. Hopefully it will be swift – and if not persuasive, then punitive.
Tony,
Jerbal and Daly are going down!
In other news, Jerbal’s site spiked up to two dozen readers because of the J & K mention.
However, 50% of the comments at the site failed Jerbie’s random posting guidelines and were deleted.
The GOP Kool-Aid Drinkers strike again. You’re right “Red Vixen”, to attack J&K was suicidal for our buddy Jerbie. And you’re right about the CENSORSHIP on their site. He wants to create the illusion that all the posters agree with him. It isn’t just the left who play the PROPOGANDA game is it?! So, the question is, What are they AFRAID of?! Defections!!! The hardcore Ideologues in the GOP don’t want to admit that they have offended large segments of the VAST Political Center of this State and Country! Example: The good old abortion litmus test, that they tried to apply to candidates. This offended an entire generation of Women. It also split the GOP vote, and drove many to the Dems, and now look what’s happened, Spend, Spend, Spend, Tax, Tax, Tax……But now the GOP are just as bad! WEEEEETHISISFUN!!!! REMEMBER FULLERTON!!!!

Uh, Bushala. The whole invite is on Jubal’s post. Who even wrote about the host committee. Doesn’t look like he’s hiding anything. What’s the point of this post? And how come you never talk about what Shawn Nelson does for a living?
“Red Clownty”: PRICELESS!
#4, the pdf only incuded the first page when it was first published over there. Pedroza re-printed what he found there.
You’re right. Both pages are now up there. And an underwhelming list it is. Bushala is right. Once you weed out the lobbyists and governemnt hangers-on there is not much there from the GOP side.
Daly will have lots of Democrat and union support though. Unless Galloway runs. And then Anaheim would be split three ways.
What’s a corrupt, has-been lobbyist to do? Lewis has fallen on hard times after he helped his clients go broke. His only game now is bottom-feeding and trying to help Dems whip Republicans.
Hey, Or. Co. GOP Central Committee — anyone paying attention?
