Joe Piscopo edges closer to NJ governor run
The Hill ^

Posted on 10/21/2016 6:17:40 PM PDT by ameribbean expat

“I know who’s running on the left. I know who’s running on the right. Good guys,” Piscopo said last November. “I shouldn’t be saying this, but I’m going to tell you anyway: We think we could beat them.”

While the Observer cites sources saying Piscopo, now a radio host, would run as a Republican, last year he expressed frustration with both political parties.

“I left the party because the Democrats are totally messing it up,” he said at the time. “But listen, the Republicans are no better, don’t get me wrong,” he said, adding he might “go in as an independent.”

“I’ve got chunks of guys like you in my stool”

That was Phil Hartman.

Piscopo played Sinatra, when he did the duet with Stevie Wonder:

Frank Sinatra: "You are black, and I am white
Life's an Eskimo Pie, let's.. take a bite!
That was groovy thinkin'
Lincoln, when you set them freeeeeee...

We all know
Cats are the same
Maine to Mexico.
Good. Bad.
Guys and chicks!"

Stevie Wonder: "I am dark, and you are light."

Frank Sinatra: "You are blind as a bat, and I have sight!
Side by side, you are my amigo,
Negro, let's not fiiiiiiiight!"

Stevie Wonder: "Ebony, ivory
Living in perfect harmony."

Frank Sinatra: "Salt and pepper,
Sammy and Dean
Stevie and me are peachy keen!"

Stevie Wonder: "You are white."

Frank Sinatra: "You are black - and who cares!"

Who cares, baby!

I always thought Piscopo and Murphy could have been a great comedy team if they wanted to do movies together, they seemed to have real good chemistry together.

I don’t know

He is well known in New Jersey

He was on NJ 101.5 before it got bought out by the NJEA and fired everyone that was good.

He would have a chance

Nobody wants that Sweeney hack, except for the union thugs

Franken still around?

Unfortunately yes. He's a (liberal nutcase) Senator from Minnesota (you know, the land of other nuts like Jesse Ventura.)

Piscopo is apparently supporting Trump. Contrast that with weasely backstabber Assemblyman Jack Ciattarelli (an “alleged” Conservative) who has insulted Trump from the start, moved to support him and then ran for the hills when that nothingburger tape from 11 years ago was dropped by the RINOs as a last ditch effort to put up a ringer for Hillary.

If Joe Piscopo can stand up as boldly as Trump, he deserves our support and send cowards like Jack Ciattarelli back home to hide in a closet.

New Jersey Republicans have been mostly RAT lite for a long time.
