Congratulations Dan!!!
I was nervous for a while, but this will make Bloomberg easier to swallow.
Dan - don't forget you're mission!
Looks like Kim really shot himself in the foot with that Trib stunt. Good for Dan
Mazel Tov! Oops. Didn't mean to get all religious or anything. Right, Schenkler?
TONY AVELLA FOR CONGRESS!
Congratulations Halloran! From Avella to Halloran, the district's reputation of electing mavericks who vote their conscience is ensured.
Hehe,
This article mistakenly says Kevin Kim voted twice:
http://www.nydailynews.com/blogs/brawlforthehall/2009/11/major-halloran-kim-council-bra.html
If only they knew!
Hopefully, Halloran will be a gentleman, and respond to The Trib's future interview requests, but only after The Trib apologizes.
Everybody.
Happy days are here again.
The skies above are clear again.
So let's sing a song of cheer again.
Happy days are here again.
And now for our daily Latin lesson:
Amo, amas, amat, amamus, amatis, amant.
Schenkler, Schankler, Schunkler
Skenkler, Skankler, Skunkler
Congrats Dan!
A great victory for District 19
Only a total loser who even post Tony Avella for Congress when this man barely received 20% in the primary.
Jerkoff much? Considering the fact that Tony had a limited budget and limited city-wide recognition, was given very little attention by the press, and had to fight a strong machine candidate, I thought that he had a good showing for a first attempt at city-wide office. Tony Avella has a lot of respect in the 19th council district and the 20th district as well. I guess that you must be an Ackerman/Skenkler troll who is scared that Tony could actually defeat Ackerman and his hidden agendas and potential Asian money laundering. People are fed up with abusive behavior and over the next few weeks, I expect that the Tribune's insulting front page cover labeling Dan Halloran as a "pagan lord" will come back and bite Ackerman right in the butt. I wonder how that long-time friendship is going because of this development. Hmmmm............
So long, sucker!
tony avella is easily the most reviled scum in city council. you can look for weeks and you won't find a single person who will call him a friend.
And that's a bad thing? Considering how those thieving bastards allowed Bloomtard to gain a 3rd term even though there were 2 referenda approving term limits, who needs "friends" like that? Tony was one of the only councilman who stood up for the people of this city and that is the person who I want representing me in a city, state, or federal position. Hey Evan, does your mommy Moby know that you are staying up late playing with the Queens Crap bloggers?
I think the troll is the same jerk that thought that Kevin Kim would be representing the 19th district at this time. HA!
I have nothing to do with Kevin Kim, idiot. You were the fool that posted that Avella would do better when he couldn't even gather more than 69,000 votes. WTH? Avella barely recieved 20% of the votes in the primary. No one likes him in the city council. He didn't even received matching funds. Anyhow, you are an idiot and probably didn't even vote so I wont' waste my time on you anymore.

Too bad. You're unintelligent rants and unintelligible and illogical comments are entertaining us. Anyone can throw numbers around but Tony represented the 19th district well and prevented a lot of negative development to occur and that is a truth you can take to the bank!
Tony Avella for Governor!
"Tony Avella for Congress???// We don't want him since he throws people under the bus. We don't want tony avella."
I have a sneaking suspicion that you have a hidden agenda for keeping the status quo:

i read Fr.Brosnan's letter to his parishners.they should demand his resignation immediately. he is being used by his radical clergy fellow travelers.could dan berrigan be his real mentor? who invited Fr.dan to speak at sacred heart parish,a few months ago?
are the pupils being marxist indoctrinated?
I am wondering how much influence the Queens Crap site had in affecting the outcome?

It was the Kim/Sacred Heart mail fraud that sealed the deal for me. Congratulations to Dan. Maybe a public swearing-in ceremony and party?

Another Queens Crap scoop!
Tony Avella is done.
this is great news. glad to see the voters recognized the kim campaign for what it was. hopefully that's the last we hear of him. Good luck Dan.
Tony Avella is done.
And Kevin Kim is the new city councilman!
And his wife looks pretty cute, too! Queens Courier article on the victory.

Nope.. but Tony will never hold office again. He blew it...

Sez you. I didn't know that Nostradamus is now a Queens Crap blogger!
"Nope.. but Tony will never hold office again. He blew it..."
Personally, I think he was ideally suited for Public Advocate and don't think he should have run for Mayor. He likely alienated much of the Democratic Machine by challenging Thompson, by not endorsing Kim, and by opposing Quinn at every opportunity (including fighting the repeal of term limits). Tony would likely have to run for office as an Independent.

Agreed.
Tony would have also been a much better Borough President than the do-nothing Helen Marshall. He ran for the wrong office.
Whew! TG Dan won!
Thankfully I can throw out my
FOR SALE now!
id take Tony avella should run INDEPENDENT against gary ackerman!!!
Let's have a contest: What will be the headline of the Queens Tribune story about Dan Halloran's victory (and/or Kevin Kim's defeat)?

Kevin Kim Shaman Loser!
Halloran Defeats Kim In Hot Race
Halleluia! In spite of the disappointing Bloomturd squeaker of a win, the Halloran victory shows that we're not living in Bizarro World after all.
kim vs.weprin ,for dem. primary, in next n.y.s.senate
race.tribune is neutral!!!!!!
Folks, let me point you to this data on Bayside:
http://realestate.nytimes.com/community/bayside-queens-ny-usa/demographics
Take a look at the age median: 47.68
Then look at the racial comp:
RaceWhite 73.2%
Black 2.9%
Asian/Pacfic Islander 20.8% (NYT misspelled Pacific)
Other 3.0%
Bayside is one of the whitest sections of Queens..it also has one-of, if not the oldest age medians in the borough.
Against these realities, the fact that a flawed candidate such as Kim lost by only --6 points-- is indicative of the future.
N.E. Queens is essentially a "last stop" for those, mostly white residents. In the near 12 years that I have had business in that area, I have seen it's face change.
The changes are more gradual than places such a Astoria, but the same effect has been occurring; white population getting older, leaving and their replacements are mostly in the case of Bayside, Asian.
Halloran is likely the last of the beef eatin-football types..and most certainly last republican to hold office there.
Except that District 20 which is more Asian, just elected a Republican.
" Anonymous said...

Anomalous situation. The Dem's didn't really back "their" man and, as a result Koo's money and backing won the day.
Now, if the Rep had been a roundeye.....
Asians generally don't care about party affiliation.
I think Ruffles and Skankler will try to spin their "story" to imply that Halloran somehow stole the election rather than winning it:
"Heathen Halloran Helps Himself to Kim's Seat"
This election was a lose lose for queens. I'm glad Halloran won because i personally despise Kevin Kim. That being said Halloran has no clue what he is getting himself into. Until the people in the 19th district start to care and elect someone who can make a difference, nothing will change there. Congratulations northeast queens on at least 4 years of accomplishing nothing. And on another note: Ackerman needs to go.
"Congratulations northeast queens on at least 4 years of accomplishing nothing."
Another Nostradamus making predictions. I guess you win the lottery every week, too. Let's give Halloran a chance and at least wait until he's sworn into office...
TONY AVELLA for Congress what a great thought. We do not need billionaires to buy elections let's have someone represent the people!
Well, the Tribune has finally covered the victory: Three Boro Council Seats Go To GOP. In it, Ruffles refers to Halloran as "a Pagan ex-cop and attorney from Whitestone," although he does include quotes from Halloran saying that there was too much focus on his faith during the campaign -- Ruffles just doesn't mention which newspaper was the one obsessed with it.
Just curious, who's Ruffles?
"Just curious, who's Ruffles?"
Rafferty of the Queens Tribune, who did the original hit job on Halloran.
"Ruffles" is Brian Rafferty, the editor of the Queens Tribune and the writer of the Pagan articles on Halloran. Gabeesh?
"i read Fr.Brosnan's letter to his parishners.they should demand his resignation immediately. he is being used by his radical clergy fellow travelers.could dan berrigan be his real mentor? who invited Fr.dan to speak at sacred heart parish,a few months ago?

Fr. Berrigan, while hardly a rational political mind (the man is an radical pacifist with no regard for conservative political thought), can hardly be accused of playing racist or theocentric politics. The man is a Jesuit priest and is emplyed by Halloran's Alma mater, Fordham University. You're not so subtle implication that Berrigan had trained a parish preist to attack a local Republican is inane, and indicative of a less than developed mind.
Please, put the conspiracy theories aside and lets just see this for what it was, a parish priest unwisely getting involved and a dirty campaign using that to gain an advantage.
