Mayor's Poll

Tim Keller is in pretty good shape as shown by the Sanderoff Research and Polling survey this morning.  It is probably accurate because unlike robo call polls, the cheap ones employed by TV News and others, Sanderoff manages to get a right mix of both cell phones and landlines into his sample.  One could argue that few of Keller's young supporters have land lines.

An interesting demographic in the race concerns Brian Colon, former Democratic Party Chair, is that he is losing big time to Keller amongst Democrats.  I have referred to him as the "Pelosi" of New Mexico, and that might be showing.  Time for new leaders.  But, I can't recall any former Chairs of the Party who went on to win elections.

The knives will come out big time in the race now.  But where they will be planted is up for grabs.  Probably in Colon as the desperate GOP right wing tries to get one of their fundamentalists into the runoff.  Meanwhile, will ABQ City Councillor Lewis and County Commissioner Johnson go into war against each other?  Who knows.

The voter turn out will be low.

You have forgotten Diane Denise who was state party chair and went on to be elected Lt Gov. but later got her head handed to her by Suzanna thanks to good old bill.

It will be Tim Keller and Brian Colon in runoff. Brian will beat Tim in the runoff. He will get all the Republicans that cannot stand Tim Keller. The two R's cancel each other out and then Brian swoops in to victory with his large campaign war chest. Tim should have not taken public financing. Poor guys is about to get crucified.

Watch the "Pelosi Kid" come out of nowhere to shock Burquenos and win the mayoral contest.

More like watch the Republicans flee Colon when it gets it he was Bill Richardson's little gofer boy.

September 18,
Your boy poindexter Colon is about to get steamrolled. He is a fraud. Pulled himself up by his bootstraps huh! Well he was sued over non payment of his school loan and his law firm is representing Schultz. They never filed to end representation so they are liars. Also, get ready for his mess to come out over his connections to Richardson during all of that pay to play shenanigans. Colon is a joke and a fake. He won't even make the runoff. Colon would be more of the same corruption and all of Schultz's Perry's and Berrys people will be protected and running amok. The public knows this and it is not going to happen. This time we are not going to see money buy an election.

More Pete Dinelli propaganda at it again. Pathetic. Really is.

Willie Wonka said...

Dinelli is Albuquerque's oun Kim Jong Un complete with cheesie ass propaganda. Please! A 22 year old with no job for mayor and we wonder why people laugh at us! There was once a time when you were just told no but in this brave new world of everyone gets an award let's just make all the grade schoolers cops. Maybe the bad guys will just feel bad about about shooting children, and just give them hugs and surrender? Maybe we can turn Albuquerque into the land of milk and honey and living there would be like playing chutes and ladders. Yea, that's it. Let's build all of the houses out of gingerbread and sky scrapers out of chocolate and marshmallows. Maybe the unicorns will come too. It will be great, just elect Gus Pedrotty.

This is Pete Dinelli: Please keep me out of your nasty little discussions you pack of hate mongers. I have not endorsed anyone and have my own blog at www.PeteDinelli.com and I send virtually all of my blog articles to all the candidates for Mayor. I have also met with all the Democratic candidates for Mayor, and have not asked for anything and been promised absolutely nothing. I am very happily retired. No matter what you all fools say and the false accusations you make, I do identify myself when I post. What I have found and have had a belly full of from Keller supporters is they are very loyal to the point they come unglued and attack people whenever someone says anything perceived as being critical of their candidate. Keller and his supporters better get thicker skins because if he is elected, they will be absolutely miserable for 4 years dealing with a 24/7 scrutiny of the press and the public not to mention the hate mongers who support him now and will turn on him in a heartbeat when he does not do their bidding. Have a nice day Jim.

The Pelosi Kid will become the Comeback Kid when he gets Keller in the runoff. The "Balderas Effect" is already working its mojo.

Hey Peter,
Too late for that...bigmouth. You bought a ticket in the front row. You going to hit everyone over the head with your purse? You are anything but happily anything. You are a bitter old bag. You are the only weeping wet stepped on dukie filled baby diaper crying my friend. You are also the only two faced baby and hypocrite who turns on people. You better get your facts strait, because you are the one posting hatred on blogs because you got your ass all scuffed and chapped for being a big windbag full of bull feces. You are making a fool out of yourself on social media daily, and Albuquerque is seeing that there is no bigger chapped ass than you. Enjoy your assburn, because you asked for it. You are like the boy who cried wolf. It's everyone else that is the problem right? The only thing you have in your belly is the bullshit you spew about a 22 year old kid being more qualified than people who are investigators, Ivy League Scholars, and Lawyers, let alone people with decades of real life experience under their belts. You can't even back it up with anything other than he speaks well. Even a parrot can regurgitate what he is told if he is told it enough. Explain how he is going to deal with the treachery that has destroyed this city because your boy has no clue and will be made a fool of.

Be a man and state the bidding you say these hate mongers want of Keller. To do the right thing? To clean up the corruption? To treat people fairly? To get rid of the good old boys like you were? To not be connected to the Schultz gang? To own what he does? You make the same false accusations, and can not back any of it up. You make no sense at all. Now is your chance to put your big lady pants on pal. Go ahead and lay it out. Most men respect and admire loyalty. A slimy snake resents loyalty. Shit, I have had people I despise at least be loyal, and I respected that. Not you though. You resent anything that nails you. You respond with attacks and act like a child who had his candy taken away. Do Albuquerque a favor and go away. You had every chance anyone needs to be given to prove that you are irrelevant in the political landscape of this city unless it is to sabotage it with bitter sissy ass behavior.

Every time you open your mouth you are entitled to a rebuttal and that is what you will get every single time. Stay in your own playpen if you don't like it.
