My concession speach...

As imagined from the podium in the empire room:

I would like to start by truly thanking everyone who worked so hard during this campaign. I owe, we all owe, so much to you. That I did not win, is not a reflection on you, but rather a reflection on the fact that I did not run for any office. This in no way diminishes the importance of all your hard work.

I congratulate my esteemed opponent. I hope that all promises of ending the bickering between the county and the city are remembered. I hope that we can truly work together, as a group, using what unites us, to do what is truly best for Onondaga County. That and maybe we can get a opportunity agenda or whatnot.

In conclusion, I would like to say, as I look out over this crowd, that Lisa Spitz and Carrie Lazarus are just as attractive in person. Thank you all once again. Some candidate needs to buy me a drink.

Random thoughts on the election and related politics:

Perhaps this is not the most genius post right after asking if anyone wanted me as their campaign manager.

Overall, we did exactly as I expected, although county-wide races we got trounced. I'm OK with Joanie winning because I expected that, and with Bob Antonacci winning because I still think he's a good candidate even with the lawsuit. I'm sorry for Marc Waldauer, I think he was truly more qualified, and what's worse he really didn't see this coming to this degree. I'm not at all OK with Fitzpatrick's win, but then I expected that one too.

In other races, we gained some strength. The most important one is that Farrell and Diblasi are out, because if there were 2 candidates I thought should be out, it's them, and if there are 2 candidates I thought should be in, it's their opponents. Plus we broke the super majority, so the legislature needs some Democratic votes to pass some things (not everything, but some things). I am somewhat disappointed that it was at the expense of Deb Moynihan. I think most of us were surprised at how well Victoria Lightfoot did in Dale's old district. She lost, but she can be proud, and the Republican that won seems one of the more progressive ones anyway.

I think we gained a few in the town positions, but the most important things are we lost by a lot less in the ones we lost, and I, in Lysander, had some actual Democrats to vote for. I'm disappointed I can't congratulate my neighbor on unseating Judge Rutherford.

The best thing to come out of the Mahoney administration thus far is this cartoon.

Final Stats
Winning percentage (for the 4 county wide races and any endorsed county leg races)
Post-Standard endorsements: 15/21 71% My endorsements: 8/18 44%
But... Campaigns I gave money to: 60%, an even 2/3 if you consider all the Pizza and Ziti I bought at Pavone's.

I've always liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to kind of rightful fritter away space staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a opportunity, it helps me with meditation, to mitigate stress and just assume fro nothing. That's why since I was a kid, in place of of dolls and cars I've always at ease more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, harmonious boxes etc. So I was most pleased when I start the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Spry Show Laser Top Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the aegis the Toys section. It's like a tuneful caddy, a spinning top, and a radiance reveal all rolled into one. Which is spectacular amusement! The gyroscope transfer concoct representing round a minute. The laser enlightenment pretension with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a very unequalled bauble that my friends have also been most amused with.

My dogs are also nice-looking eccentric about the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They unceasingly cleave to the gyroscope as it spins, although at first place they kept barking at the laser insight show, and also because it produces music. But after they got worn it, they've stopped barking but due keep following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also pretty amused by it. Occasionally it's moral to possess entertaining toys throughout the house so that you can desert the bit of frippery trifle with on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you count prepare foodstuffs or sock changed. The gyroscope is one such toy with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a map on it, and produces a dainty exposition with red, downcast, and unskilled colours. Take a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser incandescence show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that expert but good sufficiency to treat any redone guest to the house. The gyroscope is red and jet-black, making it look exceedingly coolth, and somewhat macho with that dragon imprint.

The music light make clear gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also used this gyroscope to their heels my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy matter of decorating the hotel cell with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as affectionately so that the laser torchlight show produces a fresh effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the understanding effects created a slightly romantic atmosphere. She loved it, past the style, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my default shopping put in favour of all gifts and ideas for emotional occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser light show gyroscope can maybe be a talented Christmas contribution seeking the toddler or even the pet! Alternatively, the gyroscope can absolutely be a polite summation to the ordinary Christmas decorations. I can presume placing it within a mile of the Christmas tree and maybe spinning it when guests arrive in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my business yet again!
