This is Going to be Fun!
Posted by: dever on Wednesday, March 01, 2006 - 01:02 AM
Those of you who used to follow getaclue.net a couple of years ago know that one of my favorite targets in the 2004 elections was Capri Cafaro. Cafaro is originally from the Mahoning Valley area where her old man got rich the old-fashioned way - building shopping malls. She and Daddy were also key players in the indictment and conviction of former representative James Traficant, currently enjoying life in federal custody and very much missing his 70's throwback toupee. You see, it was their company that got caught giving Traficant cash. It was widely rumored in the Youngstown area that they were planning to lean on Traficant to not run for re-election and to support Capri - but after being stained by his disgrace, Capri decided to move on to greener pastures (and based on the downright nasty coverage she received from the Youngstown-based newspaper "The Vindicator," a wise choice) in the 14th district where she was subsequently (to steal a line from Dennis Miller) "stomped like a narc at a biker ralley" by incumbent Republican Steve Latourette.

So it is with much joy that I see, not one to give up quite so easily, my favorite-little-mobbed-up-congress-critter-wanna-be-cum-media-darling Capri has moved her residence again, looking to run for the 13th District seat currently being held by Sherrod Brown who is running for Senate. What a shame if she had to give up her posh Hunting Valley digs (median home value - $868,000) from which she talked about the working man's plight.

Unfortunately, given the heavy democrat bent of the district, the likelihood that Brown is going to get the nod for his senate run, and the fact that the Cleveland and Akron media are absolutely in love with Capri - she'll likely win the election. You heard it here first. Which, of course, will help her father sleep better at night - because when you can't buy a congressman anymore, you have to resort to buying a congressional district.

Apparently, any congressional district.
