Let me tell all you democrats. Maddens win is like pissing your pants in a black suit. It give you a warm feeling for a moment but no one notices. Tomorrow you will all start to catch on that Patrick is not a democrat. He's a Trojan horse sent to you by a bunch of republicans. Major republican win tonight.

Gotta love the WFP rationalizations for handing the council to the Republicans. Thanks Anasha!

Guess we'll just enjoy your major republican win tonight. Gordon probably disagrees.

You really have to be a special kind of loser to win a race with five lines. Even in Troy.

Major win for Troy tonight. Madden, someone who can work across party lines. No Trojan horse, just a man who has the ability to pull support from all the voters regardless of party affiliation. The man that can unite Troy for Troy, not Republican against Democrat. Get over it, we all need to be working together.

Gordon fell off script. This plan all started back a couple years ago. When Rich Crist placated Rodneys. He helped Rodney get the top job on the council and blew smoke up his ass that he would help him be mayor. Then he and Jimino brought her brother in and this is it.

12:47 you must be new to this blog. That's to rational a thought for these idiots. They only like to talk about Harry and 911 tapes hear meanwhile the republicans are out taking it to the people. How's all that Harry bashing working out for your Candidates today? The republicans will get this ship in the right direction with the help of Mayor Jimino Madden. This is a good day. We have majority with a non-democratic Mayor. You guys can play the 911 tapes and talk about Harry for 2 years. HG4YN

Hey, 6:33 AM...

Taking what to the people? A losing message? You only won anything because of Team Troy. Given how badly you've treated Carmella, I'm not sure she'll be as willing to go along with you as you think. I believe Madden will govern effectively.

i would not say trounced thats what your boy Rodney got!

Lol st the Republicans trying to save face. You yanked Carmella off the top of the ticket for Boy Wonder, who lost so spectacularly last night that even the Dems are feeling sorry for the poor schmuck. Meanwhile Carmella cleaned house at large, and she's not beholden to any of you jackasses because you've been treating her like shit for years. Nice job!

She certainly outworked everyone-no denying that. But she also had people bullet voting her- that was clearly evident after viewing the numbers coming in from the machines -many of which btw neglected to include a vote for mayor -so clearly, as usual, its all about Carmella. Like a spoiled child.

Are you telling me that Sullivan Teta isn't a retard?
Poppycock

OK, the Reps running around claiming a sweep are a bit silly. However, their success at the the Council is not to be overlooked. They won 3 seats convincingly, and probably would have gotten at least four and possibly five seats even absent Team Troy.

United, that working together crap sounds so nice, but this is Troy. I think Pat can govern effectively, but it will be a rough ride. We still have some years to go before the MAC payments are done, and the expenses are growing faster than revenue. Pat can share services and flowchart all day long and it still won't cover the shortfall in this year's budget alone. There is no Uncle Joe on the horizon, so that means cutting the untouchable and/or taking on the tax-exempt institutions. Ironically, it might be easier to do these steps with a bifurcated executive and legislative branch.

I'm Hatched out doosh. I'm the king of the Burgh, I'd crush that mute do nothing.

The party that gave us three time loser Jim Gordon would certainly know all about pants wetting. Look on the bright side, I think your boy made history. Not sure there's ever been a political candidate in Troy who lost with five lines in a four way race. That's really something special.

Hatched lol you'd need a job..king of the burgh that's hilarious didn't know the baggers at price chopper were hatched..

Gotta agree with 4:55 --- its always, all about Carmella. I heard she was bad mouthing Gordon all over the place. She only won because we had Baby Rodney, not realizing the inevitable and staying in the race -- costing us the majority.

Was there anyone NOT badmouthing Gordon? He was an embarrassing liability to the Republicans running. Sorry Wojcik, your boy sucked and you lost. Now you're begging Carmella for a tit job. Feel the burn?
