What did the Speaker Know and When Did He Know It?

Did state House Speaker Bill O’Brien have advance knowledge that James O’Keefe would be sending his associates to obtain New Hampshire primary ballots using the names of deceased voters? Did he get a sneak preview of the video before it was made public? Writing in The Lobby, the anonymous “Mr. Snitch” suggests he did.

Bully’s sure been busy now that the session is in full swing. So busy, in fact, you’d think he wouldn’t have the time to act as a production consultant with James O’Keefe, conservative activist, pretend journalist and Mama’s Boy (what else do you call a 27-year-old male son who still lives at home, nicely ensconced in Mom-and-Pop’s North Jersey manse, Snitcherinos?)

Turns out Jimmy the Jerk, a convicted felon BTW, gave Bully a heads up on his little voter fraud skit. Explains why Bully was all set with his righteous indignation sound bites for Channel 9 after the video magically appeared.

The Lobby: “Are Bully-O’s Days Numbered?”

The Lobby’s Mr. Snitch recently interviewed 17 GOP state House representatives. They’re conservatives who voted for Right-to-Work, but who say House Speaker Bill O’Brien’s obsession with the anti-union legislation could be their undoing — and his.

All of them — all seventeen (17) — said Bully’s got their butts tied up in a PR disaster that has them worried about re-elect time next year.

They figure Bully’s aiming to ramp up his antics in ‘12, which means there ain’t no light at the end of the tunnel for ‘em.

It also means that the ducks are already being lined up to dump Bully as speaker — if he wins re-elect himself next November, that is.
