Big news for Kansas City's Downtown Missouri State Rep. Mike Talboy.
Talboy was recently elected as a new board member to the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee!!!
The Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLCC) works to win state legislative seats and chambers for Democrats . . . After enduring a Tea Party wave of elections, Talboy is essentially getting in on the ground floor with his political recognition AND increases his profile and access for Kansas City on a NATIONAL LEVEL.
I am pleased to hear this news! Talboy has a good head on his shoulders and should do a fine job.
ReplyDeletePoor guy. Can you say, one horse town...er...party? Being the leader of anything Democrat in Missouri is like being the leader of a vending machine in Vegas.
ReplyDeleteTalboy gets what he deserves because he did not work Chris Moreno's plan.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Mike
Talboy will do a great job, he is creating one heck of a legacy. You go boy!
ReplyDeleteOne lat time:
ReplyDeleteFuck this egotist, Chris Morono.
Stop posting for the sake of transparent self-promotion, you nit-wit!
I would not vote for Chris Moreno for dog catcher.
ReplyDeleteTalboy was too stupid to understand the Moreno plan and so he fired Chris, which cost the Democrats their shot at the majority.
ReplyDeleteMoreno you are on a Democratic blog switch to Cashills you will be with friends
ReplyDeleteYou do realize as 50 year old men blindly accusing Chris Moreno of posts is becoming a sad obsession.
ReplyDeleteChris Moreno is God!
ReplyDeleteThe Moreno plan = Alienate everyone on behalf of a shitty candidate. Ruin all your connections. Lose a BUNCH of clients for a struggling firm and then get on a fucking blog and endlessly self-promoting a lost cause.
ReplyDeleteHow could Talboy have passed?
This is a great opportunity for Mike and one that he will do a fabulous job at. Great of you to recognize that, Tony. He also has all his Christmas shopping done I heard. That too is a real accomplishment.
ReplyDeleteTo those anonymous posts foolishly attributed to me, here is mine.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Brother! You deserve it after your hardwork. Other states will prosper for it. Look forward to talking soon. Watch those cab doors.
Damn Tony, your negativity was bringing me down. Smile, it will all work out in the end. Be the change you want to see in the world.
ReplyDeleteNice work Mike. The DLCC can play a significant role in state elections. It certainly doesn't hurt to have some representation from Kansas City.
Democraps really are worried if they have not changed their style. They need to get with The Moreno Plan.
ReplyDeleteWhile I'm here on this site, I might as well shed some enlightenment for those interested in your state capitol...
ReplyDeleteTalboy works well with lobbyists and other legislators, probably better than he does with his constituents. He seems to really understand politics and it doesn't surprise me that he was appointed to the DLCC. Other elected officials in Missouri have served in the past. Talboy's predecessor Rachel Storch also worked with the organization and it wouldn't surprise me if she didn't have something to do with his selection.
I bet Mike ends up doing something in Washington DC after he terms out. It is setting up nicely for him earning the respect of national players. The money will be hard to resist and I've seen guys like Mike for almost two decades working in the building move on to greener pastures outside of Missouri. Scott Murphy comes to mind (google him) but maybe not in elected office, more of a gov affairs contract lobbyist role. Talboy is way to liberal for statewide Missouri. I have seen him say things on the floor that are scorching. When Tim Jones and Brian Pratt would give campaign speeches on the House floor Talboy would be one of the first reps to the mic to call them out. We lobbyists sit in the upper gallery and watch these grown men scream at each other like children on the play ground. Talboy is by far the most aggressive of the KC reps. He is not the best speaker in the delegation but he is the one most willing to take the heat on an abortion bill or calling out Jeff Grisamore for hating children. All of the KC reps have their own style and pound for pound are much more talented than the STL delegation. Let's see... Kander is witty and doesn't speak as often as you would expect which gives him more attention when he does. Holsman is an eloquent wordsmith who probably understands policy as well as anyone in the room. Hughes is a big dreamer who has grand ideas that he doesn't follow through on. Curls is steadfast and serious, she is nothing like Melba and will be a solid senator. Brown sometimes doesn't know where he is during a debate. Everyone else is new.
This should be a good session because my clients like Republicans and there are nothing but Republicans in Jefferson City. You should not expect anything from your KC delegation in the way of passed legislation. It won't be their fault, but they should prepare to be shut out.
Well, my secret desire to be a People Magazine reporter is satisfied. I feel like the woman in Gosford Park, but ohh it feels so good.

Gee, 1:06, you really care about Mike Talboy to post that lengthy of a blog at 1:00 in the morning. Sure...you're a lobbyist...and so am I...
ReplyDeleteKander is a self-promoting ass. Just my opinion. Holsman is a nice guy, and so is Talboy.
Grill will be missed from KC in Jtown, but I presume he will be back in a City run or Congressional run one day.
