"Alliance" Battlelines are Being Drawn

While it seems very quiet on da "alliance" front, behind da scenes there's been some activity ever since da political marriage of Republican Andy Boy and Democrat da Queen was sent to divorce court.

DaTruthSquad's GOP'er sources check in and say that they're still celebrating New Years Day at GOP HQ. Not only is da GOP in Manalapan now in a position to gain a solid everybody-taking-orders-from-da-same-person majority, but they are now poised to gain a stranglehold on da Manalapan Township Committee. From what we can put together, there is da appearance that this may have been da long term plan all along.

Ironically, what it would take for da GOP'ers plan to work is someone who could be easily duped. They also needed someone who could control others, and maybe even be a "bad guy." They also needed someone who thirsted for power. Never in their wildest dreams did they think that person would be da Queen.

Or was it?

It was actually back in 2004 that da Manalapan GOP started to wonder if da late Joltin Joe was da kind of guy who could follow orders. They were right to realize he was not, because he was his own person and could not be placed under da thumb of anyone, much like his mentor, da Mosked Man.

After da GOP'ers gained power in 2005, da Cadre immediately went to work in ways of "dividing and conquering" da dynamic duo of Joltin Joe and Andy Boy. They were able to eventually divide da duo, and da alliance was born.

This leads us to what will happen next for da Manalapan Democrats who for da first time since da 1990's are now on da outside looking in. Da Andy Boy - Green Hornet duo is on da very same page, which is exactly da way their handlers want things. Their third wheel, Jordan "Stu" Maskowitz is a shoo-in to be elected, thanks to da Democrat's Capo di Tutti Capi, da Boss of all Bosses Gerry "One Bourbon - One Shot & One Beer" Ward putting up two virtually unknown candidates to take on a sitting mayor and a leader of da Manalapan Yorktowne Club. Then again, can you remember da resources da two GOP'ers da Grand Poobah put up against da Queen and Farmer Don received?

Outfoxed by, of all people, Andy Boy and his handlers, da big question now is what will da Capo do, and what will da Queen of Manalapan do to combat what is now turning into GOP dominance at their expense?

DaTruthSquad's embedded sources within da Cadre's walls have been working on this, and here's what we're seeing:

ISSUE 1: WHERE'S DA MESSENGER?

Without a certain former BaconHead Award-winning alleged "reporter" pushing da Snoozepaper's buttons, da Cadre's public relations machine is missing a few cogs. Actual real-life reporter Mark Rosman is not one to be duped into writing whatever, so that option is out. Da so-called "Hate" website is about six eggs short of a dozen, so even placing out those controversial lawn signs from a so-called "mysterious benefactor" didn't help grow da blog either - nor did trying to sell it last year. It seems da only way to make a statement may be during public sessions in Manalapan Town Hall meetings. Their best messenger is da former mayor known for his silver hair and silver shovel.

Could da guy with da shovel be da one to dig up dirt on Mayor Andy Boy??????

ISSUE 2: PUBLIC COMMENTS.

Da days of spending 20 or 30 minutes sitting at a table and taking aim at committeepeople is over. Da 5-minute rule is not only enforced, it is now gospel. Recently, a former mayor went up to ask questions, and da look on his face when he was told his 5 minutes of fame were up was priceless. If da Cadre is going to employ da same "divide & conquer" strategy, they'd better learn how to do it in less than 4 minutes.

ISSUE 3: DA QUEEN'S SUDDEN LOSS OF CLOUT.

Da Queen is da face of Manalapan Democrats, and she is also da face now of two well-known and polarizing lawsuits filed against Manalapan Township, one by da Mosked Man and da other by his client, highly decorated and popular Manalapan Police Chief Stu Brown. Thanks to da alliance, all of da Queen's allies became all of Andy Boy's alies, and now that he's holding all da cards and his side's power is on da rise, it leaves those "allies" deciding what side to be on in these tough economic times. For maybe da first time since she entered politics, da Queen may be on da outside looking in. And, if da unknown Democrats that da Capo has placed against Andy Boy and "Stu" Maskowitz lose, then da Manalapan GOP stands just one election away from an unstoppable 5-0 supermajority.

ISSUE 4: IS DA CAPO NOW POWERLESS?

When you have power-sharing, you at least still have power. When da other side Pearl Harbor's you, and makes enough inroads to swipe away enough allies to weaken your position, and da face of your party is facing legal issues from two highly publicized ongoing lawsuits, and, lets not forget, da issue that vaulted you into power - stopping da Village - is now not going to be stopped and your own party cast da deciding vote to approve it, well it appears that both credibility and power may be in short supply.

So, what is da Capo to do? One thing he doesn't want to do is think about this --- his GOP'er counterpart, Da Grand Poobah - got da better of him!

DaTruth is, da abrupt ending of da alliance has left da Manalapan Democrats more vulnerable than they could have ever imagined. If da GOP'ers emerge victorious this year, then what of political appointments, including those political supporters at da WMUA and their free health benefits? Committees within da township? Jobs like township attorney and others? Even Tara Tiara?

We are now just 90 days away from da election that could keep Andy Boy in power and guarantee him at least one more time as Manalapan's mayor. We could only guess that da Green Hornet wouldn't mind his picture on da mayor's wall of shame. This means that da Capo has just 90 days to find a way to get his base energized, get out da vote, and somehow with da GOP holding all da cards, make them look bad enough to get people to vote against da sitting Mayor and a big wheel in da now-popular Yorktowne Club.

While he's at it, maybe da Capo can also leap tall buildings in a single bound?

DaTruth is, whoever gave da order to end da alliance did so at da perfect time. There may not be enough time now for da Capo to mount any offense against da GOP and his new arch-nemesis, Andy Boy and his "Gray" handlers. What da Capo will need is a "scandal," however, he will need to find one or create one that doesn't touch anyone on his side of da political wall, and that could be tough.

What might da Cadre be planning? If anything, they are plotting and planning now. If they try anything, daTruthSquad believes it will happen in late-September or October, trying to impact da election.

As for what they are planning - daTruthSquad's embedded sources believe da Cadre's plan of attack wlll focus on health benefits da Green Hornet and Andy Boy receive. However, what we are hearing is it will not end there. While they are being very silent on this, it is believed they are working on something else that could impact Andy Boy's election chances. Da question is, can they find it, can they get their message out, and will it be enough?

Da Cadre could also be waiting for a bombshell expose courtesy of daTruthSquad that could blow da lid off da upcoming election. We'll let our embedded sources work on that. Until then, expect both sides to be operating silently during da dog days of summer, and even September too, unless da shovel guy digs up something.

And that's daTruth.
