Allegheny County Endorsement Results
| February 11, 2008 | Posted by committeegrrl under 2008, ACDC, Endorsements |
Yesterday, the Allegheny County Democratic Party held their endorsement meeting at Heinz Field. There was some grumbling about the change of location – the endorsement has been held at the IBEW in the past. I did some searching but the Pittsbrurgh bloggers haven’t said much about the endorsement. This republican blogger has decided he won’t…

I have been thinking about who is running a good campaign. I don’t know much about the drink tax issue but I do know that the people who oppose it are running a great campaign. Regardless of who you support for mayor, I give some credit to the DeSantis team for turning a non race…

It looks like the mainstream media is just beginning to recognize that this election may be a signal of change to come in Pittsburgh — but so far nobody has me completely convinced….

This is an update to two previous posts: Koch-ing Up a Storm and Opinion Askew. The machine is working and there’s proof.

Opinion Askew
| May 10, 2007 | Posted by insider under ACDC, Civic Engagement, Endorsements, Pittsburgh, Politics |
An opinion piece in today’s Post-Gazette touts the “new” Democratic Party in Allegheny County. However, this piece is written by the most biased of parties, the Party Chairman himself, Jim Burn. Granted Burn put himself forth as a reform candidate when he ran for County Chair, at least when he met with several young committee…
