[medford republican]

Word is Tom will step down in January. Brookhaven needs a STRONG leader to replace him.

[Gop Committee]

Hey..how about Larry Mikorenda? Is he a viable candidate
understand hes close to the power brokers..

[leelee]

yeah, but he is so ugly....

[medford republican]

How about John LaMura?

[Same ole]

What's the difference?

[insider gop]

the talent is there to replace Neppell the younger folks in the party need to pull it together.But will LaValle BIG ego let him?

[insider gop]

The talent is there to replace Neppell the younger folks in the party need to pull it together.But will LaValles BIG ego let him?

[CB]

Not a bad idea for you guys...LOL.

But Brookhaven Dem Chair Marsha Laufer is on a roll.

The energy is sprawling out of her HQ day in and day out.

Laufer is a force to be reckoned with.

[COREL]

Mikorenda has great insight,but is a party shut out he never goes along with the crowd thats why the GOP always keeps close to keep an eye on him, that and the fact he has that show.He might be a candidate for something next year but not chair. my bets on Lamura Tom keeps it in the family this way.

[Brookhaven Al]

pete scully is the next leader in Brookhaven

[IONU]

he has no south shore support, and is to closely tied to tony(im a loser) appolaro. and gaffneys popularity is in the skids,peter cares about money not prestige he will not give up his county job to be chair,Lamura is the logical choice and has well over half the votes needed to be chair as well as the blessings of islip and huntington. if your buddy john jay puts one of his latkes in the party is finished and the dems shall win everything.

[Brookhaven Al]

Beg to differ Peter has south shore support, vision, integrity and he gets along with john jay

[IONU]

you might as well turn brookhaven over to tony A.the committee will never go for it. lavalle is trying to create another grucci/bivona standard the committee will not back who lavalle wants no matter who he threatens or who he picks. people remember and do you think tom would trust peter to look after his business intrests? I think not.people are really begining to hate lavalle,the builders,committee people,the council. the dept heads.he is inaccessable, becoming rude and arrogant and suffers most likely from megalomania.tell you what take lavalle and scully and the latke give him county exec just get him out of brookhaven NOW! while we still have a party and a vote so we can choose not him.I will take Lamura as chair and maybe lefkowitz or hennesey as supervisor and we will see whose in better shape in one year.

[LYNN]

Scully is a troll like lavalle , I vote and I will not vote for him for nothing of the lesser of two evils I will go with Lamura, and if lavalle and scully think they will take the chair I look forward to the floor fight to end all floor fights.

[Telly]

I think you are all premature on your calls, but scully is tied to tony and to bob ( not well liked in brookhaven) and no doubt this is a ploy from some people who had been beat by tom last time. it wont be scully lamura will have toms support because he is somehow related to him, that and the fact that other town leaders like him. Its a known fact that the other leaders were upset with tom because he put ed morris in as deputy. So if tom leaves then it will be a intresting race, but until then we still have a leader and a good one at that.

[In the Know]

The smart money is on Lefkowitz if he will take it.

[Ronk Rep]

Why would he take over a sinking ship?

[SickNTired]

Lefkowitz is not well liked either and LaMura has too many negative from the people who worked in Town while he was Supv...add to that the MTA problem. Poerio's name has come up as a possible compromise..level headed and sensible for government but will that follow thru to politics. Raptoulis' name has also come up. Negatives are the gaffney connection but he also has a KLavalle connection. Great numbers cruncher and campaign wiz and possibly looking for a job next year. But the bottom line is that the leader is still in place and since he is...these conversations should be put on hold. If there is any truth to the rumor that he is retiring, then hopefully he will groom the next guy into an easy transition

[EXLEADER]

Joe Poreio and Stevie Raptoulis are both nice guys but lite weights. Brookhaven needs a younger leader to relate to all the new blood in the party.What about that Hildreth guy.I heard Neppell fears him.So that must be good.

[Realist]

The folks on the South Shore will never go for a Lefkowitz or a Hildreth. As for Neppell, he definitely does NOT fear this guy. He poses no real threats to him on any level. The "youth" thing is not necessarily so either because you have way too many not-so-young 'uns out there who won't support them because too many of these young guys come off like they're better than everyone....particularly the slightly wealthier north shore types. They have a kind of arrogant attitude and that is what is said about LaValle as well. It will be interesting to see who comes out of the woodwork on this. Can't be too young, can't be too old. We need someone to bridge both young and old, north and south, male and female.(lest you forget all the grumbling that the current leadership is anti-female) Any suggestions now?????

[gopcat]

once more, people are misinformed,charlie lefkowitz is liked very much by the south shore, his friend ed hennessey has introduced him around all over the south shore during the past years, another fact is charlie is a money powerhouse he has a very large war chest and does great fund raisers which have hosted the likes of rudy g and gov pataki to name a few. he is very well groomed and a good talker and has made alot of good inroads in the town. to deny these facts is either sheer stupidity or sheer hatred for one reason of another, as for mark hildreth he is not intrested and he is needed by the gov , during the 9/11 disaster mark sat in for the gov at about 200 funerals for fireman and police. you can say what you will but these are facts not fiction and anyone going through what he did for the gov deserves some respect. so lets not get personel lets just get the facts

[sbabs]

I have no problems with charlie, but tom like tony appolaro has to go. He has lost all of his senses, he has major health issues, and his mind is gone. he has let haley ( a loyal appolaro supporter) have full freedom to do what he wants even though haley refused to support him as chair. by doing this he has shown everyone he cannot lead brookhaven anymore. What is with all these old guys why cant they just leave? Why do young republicans have to wait till they are 60 to run for a office? Aside from Pat Strebel and Gerri Esposito (both poor examples) where are the women in the republican party in brookhaven? Tom runs the party like a boys club and Im sick of it. I pray every night that he will leave as leader. If this is not enough Haley has TOLD Tom who his replacement will be,, none other then a democrat turned republican who uses women like welcome mats mr lou gallo.PPPLLLLLLEEEAAAASSSEEE!!! TOM HAS TO GO AND SO DOES HALEY AND GALLO. LETS GET A WOMEN LEADER FOR BROOKHAVEN

[Truth Is Out There]

Tom's boy Freddie Towle basically spit in his face when he flipped off the Republican party and voted for a Democrat to run the County Legislature - which is majority Republican!
Tommy was in Florida sleeping during all this; when he finally had a lucid moment, Ole Tom Boy may have tried to do something to Towle, but either he had no effect or he was just too tired.
If this old walrus doesn't get put out to sea soon, we'll have Democrats crawling all over Town Hall after this 2003 Councilmanic election.
Tom stay in Florida and never come back!
And Fast Freddie - your defection will never be forgiven fatso!

[TOBY]

HALEY THINKS HE IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT TOWN LEADER GIVE ME A BREAK. AS FOR GALLO IF TOM PICKS HIM TO RUN IN HALEYS SEAT HE WILL DOOM THE NORTH SHORE AND KILL ANY SUPPORT HE HAD THERE, THERE HAS TO BE SOMEONE ELSE WHO COULD RUN AND WIN BESIDES GALLO ANY OTHER NAMES YET?

[GGEE]

STEVE LOSQUADRO, JOHN CROTZ AND LARRY MIKORENDA, MIKORENDA STANDS THE BEST SHOT

[DM]

Haley knows Gallo is not well liked and never recommended him to Neppell. Get the facts straight.

[BARKLEY]

GUESS YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN AT THE MT SINIA MILLER PLACE REP CLUB MEETING THIS WEEK AS WELL AS THE GREATER NORTHEAST MEETING WHEN HALEY SPOKE TO EVERYONE AND TOLD THEM AND HOW ON THE MEETING AGENDA WAS LISTED LOU GALLO FOR LEGISLATURE. DONT BELIEVE FOR ONE MINUTE HALEY AND GALLO ARE NOT IN A ALLIANCE, THEY WANT EVERYONE TO BELIEVE THAT, BUT ITS GOOD THAT YOU KNOW GALLO IS HATED ON THE NORTH SHORE AND BY ALOT OF OFFICIALS LIKE GENE GERRARD, JOHN LAVALLE,ED HENNESSEY,GLENN MURPHY, JUST TO NAME A FEW. AS FOR MIKORENDA HE IS VERY WELL LIKED BY THE CLUBS AND SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS IN THAT AREA BUT I DONT KNOW IF HE WANTS IT. I HEARD THAT THEY WANT HIM IN THE TOWN, BUT WE ARE IN AGREEMENT ANYONE BUT GALLO.

[PS7]

if he wants it hes got it, with or without the GOP.he is to well known in that area.

[NORTHEAST REP]

Larry MIKorenda is the man to stop Gallo.Larry has lots of friends around Brookhaven.John LaValle watch your back if Larry gets the nod.It will be pay back time.

[sbabs]

I happen to know he has no problems with john jay,I think he might even like him, he always talks on his show about him and the council in a positive way.Matter of fact john jay maybe his biggest friend in this race, they both dislike haley and gallo.my guess is watch out haley and gallo.

[gop33]

if you want to see the brookhaven machine fall apart, if you want to see schaffer and laufer sing joy to the world, if you want to see a democrat controlled board in brookhaven,

then

Larry mikorenda is the guy to become new brookhaven town leader

aweful aweful pick

Haha!!

I believe Laufer might already be singing joy to the world, with Neppell or Mikorendra or whoever, Laufer is becoming a powerhouse and this year's town races will prove just that.

[sbabs]

no one said anything about him for chairman, they were talking about the legislative seat in the 6th district, you morons, and I still hold that the next chairperson should be a women,

[BARKLEY]

EVEN I PICKED UP ON THAT, AND WHO THE HELL WOULD WANT SUCH A GAWD AWFUL JOB AS BROOKHAVEN GOP CHAIRMAN, WITH ALL THE FIGHTS THAT ARE HAPPENING NOW AND THE ONES TO COME,I SAY HE SHOULD RUN FOR THE 6TH OR COUNCIL HE CANT DO ANY WORSE OF A JOB THAN THE #$%# UPS WHO ARE THERE NOW. AND MAYBE WE SHOULD ALL TYPE SLOWER SO GOP33 CAN READ INSTEAD OF RAMBLE.

[Inside Out]

Good Idea. "The Mike" runs and wins the 6th, then has himself as a quest on TV. What the heck. He does most of the talking anyway.

Funny, why do I think some of the comments here are written by none other than.....?
No. Can't be. Can it?

[OTB]

Talk about sidetracked, so who will replace Neppel ? who cares about the sixth district, post that crap somewhere else.

[Sampsons Ghost]

A couple of things we must get straight here.
1. Gerri Esposito is a poor example of womenhood let alone a Republican.
2. Only in America can someone like Larry even consider being a candidate to represent the people.
3. John LaValle has no loyalty to no one but himself.
4. The Republican party is a loose coalition of ego-maniacs who only see dollar signs.

If we are to survive a not only as a democracy but the world's only super power the people must realize we need honest sincere public servants who have an honorable record of serving their country and community. Are any Brookhaven Republicans elected to public office Veterans of a Foreigh War? I believe Gene Gerrard was in the Coast Guard during the Second World War and I commend him for his service to our country but where are the younger vet's who served our country?
I mean can you imagine John Jay,Fred Towle, and Ed Hennessey defending freedom..I can't.

[moses spirit]

gene gerrard was in the civil war,you are a democrat who likes to start crap via postings,I love america but we are running low on vets last one was vietnam and the gulf, and going to war does not make you a good candidate, just some one who can follow orders.

[SickNTired]

It's because of the nastiness like that comment about Gerri Esposito that we cannot find worthwhile candidates. Who would want to put themselves out there for that kind of ridicule??? Same goes for Town Leader. As soon as someone's name is mentioned, there are 50 postings attacking them and usually its over something not worth mentioning. Whatever happened to the screening process? Oh wait, I forgot. That was also limited to an exclusive club. To attack Towle by calling him "Fatso" is low. To attack Gerri Esposito's "womanhood" is despicable. WHy would you stoop to that? If you want to attack them for poor policy or anything related to the job they are doing, so be it. Anything else is personal, and there really is no reason for that. But THAT is the reason you can't find a good candidate anymore.

[Telly]

why would anyone want to run either you must love your area or be a greedy bastard, and anyway they will rip you apart, this used to be a great place for information now its just a place to put someones name up and have everyone rip it apart.

[Realist]

Nothing personal about it. Ed Hennessey is not that well liked on the South SHore. People in his own area say that he hasn't done anything for them. Put him up against Fast Freddie in a ward race for that area and he won't make it. He wins townwide because of his Dem father's union connections. Personally, I think he is a nice guy, but the facts are the unfortunate facts. As for your claim of Lefkowitz' war chest, you need to take your own advice and check the facts. A war chest is what McGowan and Gaffney have...a cool million. A war chest is what some of the town supervisors have....quarter mill to half a million. Town councilmen should have close to what the supervisors have since they have townwide recognition and a better money base. That should be followed by senate, assembly and finally by legislators, who run district wide and therefore have a smaller base. Where does your friend Lefkowitz fall in that areba??? Anybody know the answer to that one???? SHould be easy enough to find out since it's public information.

heres someone who really hates council people,one of lavalles latkes no doubt, who gets paid a great salary to sit back and post on town time , everyone knows the council and lavalles dont see eye to eye on anything, so post away I doubt you will put it on your time sheet

[Realist]

Better polish up on your clairvoyance. You've got it all wrong. I don't work for LaValle, or the Town of Brkhvn or any other town for that matter! I work in the private sector on the south shore in Brookhaven...hence the info on the likes/dislikes of the councilmen in question. I happen to like Councilman Hennessey, whom I know. I have no personal opinion on Councilman Lefkowitz because I don't know him well enough to offer one. But I do know what I have HEARD about them at various club and organization meetings that I have attended. Just because you read a posting with information that differs from your opinion does not automatically mean that it came from a LaValle lackey!!!

I have not posted in a while, until someone e mailed me to tell me the horsecrap that was going on here, ok for the record. I like john lavalle and the town council I have no issues with them same with Mr Neppell. I DONT WANT NOR HAVE I EVER WANTED TO RUN FOR TOWN CHAIRMAN OF BROOKHAVEN. I think too many of you are thinking about when tom barraga and myself wanted to challenge Tony Appollaro for county chair last year and what a mistake that was considering the great job hes done ( yeah right !) Im so glad john jay and pete M finally did something about it, It should have been done years ago. I may in the future run for some office( not chair ) but thats my choice , this is america isnt it? so please leave me out of the crap ring Im not a elected official and those are the ones you love to attack so much here.LM

You tell 'em Larry. And keep up the good work that you are doing. "To everything there is a season and a time for every purpose.......".

You people are all nuts. Does anyone realize the amount of time and effort it takes to do his job? He's a stand-up guy who doesn't take a dime for his service. You all cry about politicians and money - yet here's a guy who serves (and does a damn good job) and doesn't get paid. Who else would do that? I applaud Tom Neppell. How about someone giving someone a "pat on the back" for a change and stop whining and complaining. You all sound like Democrats.

[Norshorep]

This is just too funny for words. Haley did better in the last election than he's ever done. Numbers talk. The trick is to find someone who can pull in numbers like . Good luck with that. You can all bitch and moan all you want about . Fact is there are a lot of people who like him and he'd be a shoe-in if he did run again. He has a lot of influence where it counts. Whoever does run will need to support them.
He's going to be a hard act to follow. Can't wait to see everyone beat-up the new guy.

[oh please]

need support from who?? what is he john lavalle or bob gaffney, haley is a lame loser the only reason he wins is because its all republican district, he is hated by alot of people

[Norshorep]

Sounds personal to me. 's numbers speak for themselves. If he was hated as much as you say - he wouldn't get re-elected. You can't please everybody and I wouldn't want that job for anything. He has term limits and can't stay forever unfortunately. Connie Keppert was the Democrat who ran against him last time and beat her with good numbers. Sorry - you may have something personal against the guy - but fact is - more people like him than not. Your argument doesn't hold water that it's republican territory. Republicans wouldn't keep voting for him if he wasn't liked. Look at Grucci.

[Daytona]

I have seen references to a fast freddie posted here before? Is this Fred Towle that people are speaking of? I have met him and he is a nice guy, but i wouldn't describe him as Fast? Was he a highschool athlete? Confused

(Special note: what does isn't an avery where birds live? (s/b 'a very') and what exactly is an enfiroment?)

Chairman's Message
December 2002

I would like to thank the Committee for their outstanding efforts toward our successes as well as our losses.

I would also like to congratulate Lee Snead for his great run and near victory and Nick Klissas for taking on avery difficult task holding Engelbright accountable to the enfironment as well as the major transportation problems on the North Shore. Also, I would like to thank Bob Reilly, John Bivona, Pat Pulsonetti, Celeste Iorizzo, Diane Moje-Garcia, Wayne Sill, Ted Rickman, Medline Grosso, Gerald Palermo, John Zanghi, Mario Cavalieri and Lou Gallor for winning all of their distrcts in the Congressional election. Congratulations also go to the above for the excellent results in their areas.

The efforts of an election notonly take up time but our physical and mental energy. Without the support of dedicated volunteers success would be unattainable.
