    EC Conservative Party

    Interesting report from: http://www.buffalonews.com/apps/pbcs...120929871/1074

    The big feud between friends of Republican Sen. Mark Grisanti (former County Executive Joel Giambra, former Niagara County GOP Chairman Henry Wojtaszek and Sen. George Maziarz) continues against Erie County Conservative Chairman Ralph Lorigo. Forces close to that trio mounted a furious and nasty primary effort against Lorigo allies in contests for the Conservative State Committee, with the anti-Lorigo team claiming victory in a significant number of contests.


    After Lorigo built the strongest weighted vote in all of New York for Erie County after Carl Paladino scored so well locally in the 2010 gubernatorial contest, much of that influence may now have been squandered.


    Indeed, some observers say Lorigo got so nervous over the situation that he slated his biannual reorganization meeting for Thursday morning at a campground in convenient Colden.

    I thought conservatives hated gays.
    So if both candidates support gay rights, the conservatives sit that election out right. ..?

    Wrong assumption - hate, as for me, when there are only two running who fail my must have attribute list, I do sit it out, usually pencil in a name and drive the ladies at the election place crazy - in the old days write in's where a pain (well that is what they told me at least).

    Why is it so hard for people to understand that one can be against something and not have hate?
