From the Daily News:When it comes to campaign war chests, City Councilman Peter Vallone Jr. is the king of Queens.
Vallone has more than $850,000 on hand, more than any other member of the Council’s Queens delegation, according to recent filings with the city Campaign Finance Board.
“I’m humbled to have so much support that I’m already fully funded for a Queens-wide primary,” Vallone said on Wednesday.
Vallone, whose father was the first City Council Speaker, said he has been “seriously considering” running for Queens Borough President in 2013.
So Vallone wants to be Borough President. Or does he?
Expect a very Astoria-centric presidency if this dude becomes BP. And take a look at what that nabe looks like after decades of Vallones...

Queens needs a man as QBP for a change. The ladies who have been sitting there for the past 20 years have run this boro into the ground. They were not knowledgeable and strong enough or influential enough to do for Queens what is needed . Look at what Marty Markowitz has done for Brooklyn.
The guy has a heart, speaks up, and is well connected and in tune with the boro. Unlike Marshall. When was the last time you saw her give a forcefull and uplifting speech on behalf of Queens.? She's a puppet, and everyone knows it!
La Famiglia Di Vallone continues to prosper in the family business.
Borough President Vallone, may I be the first one to kiss your ring, on the day of your daughter's wedding, and ask a favor?
The current Deputy BP is Grodenchik, so expect the Dem Party to bestow its blessing on him as the next BP.
Leroy Comrie wants the BP job, too, and he is also well-connected.
Abolish all borough president positions, they do not do anything!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!! WE DO NOT NEED THE CITY COUNCIL THEY ARE BLOATED, OVERPAID PIGS! GET OUT THE GUILLOTINE!

"Leroy Comrie wants the BP job, too, and he is also well-connected."
I don't know about well-connected, but he is well-fed.
All the BP"S should be done away with . It's a useless position.
It waste taxpayer's money.
The best political position in New York is city council.
They're paid more than the Assembly, you can get to work easier, still be with your family and not have to make the trip to Albany, and be home every night.
Uh, Pietro...
that's a lousy hair plug job you're sporting.
And tone down the pinstripes.
What a goofy looking goombah.
Mafiso politico!
Grodenchick
is an incompetent "A" hole.
He got his job because of connections.
Being a deputy won't give him any edge over Vallone.
The only Deputy Beep, to my knowledge, that got bumped up to Beep was Claire Shulman.
That's because "The Donald" offed himself and she got upped to his job.
MATT SILVERSTEIN FOR BOUROUGH PRESIDENT
WE NEED YOU
