Enjoying my Favorite Flapjacks with a Few Politicians
If there is one thing that can lure political operatives out of bed on an early Saturday morning, it's free food. A bunch of us OC politicos went to Assemblyman Van Tran's "2nd Annual Central Orange County Pancake Breakfast" this past Saturday for a hearty meal and some face time with other state lawmakers like Chuck DeVore and Jose Solorio. Kudos to Assemblyman DeVore for making it out to Garden Grove from his home in Irvine. (Pictured on the left is Van Tran reporting on his legislative activities to the audience.)
Since there was no cost to attend, over 120 people showed up for this annual event held this year at the Garden Grove Boys & Girls Club. They actually ran out of bacon. The photos were forwarded to me from the Tran's office, courtesy of Steve Sarkis. (Pictured on the right is Tran, Ed Royce, Sr., two other Stanton Councilmembers, and Chuck DeVore). Chuck is one tall guy.
More Tran pr spin from his blogger. This is compelling stuff.

Been Around - Well maybe you need go around some more on this blog. Hawk is pimping a lot of Republicans lately, not just anyone in particular.

I'd say Jubal is an equal opportunity pimp with two articles pimping Democrat Lou Correa as well.

What is Chuck doing in Garden Grove? He is kind of far away from Irvine. I am sure it has nothing to do with his intentions to run for Senate.

Chuck was there to honor his friend in the Assembly, don't think too much into it.

Chuck is one of the hardest working politicos around. If somebody even thinks about having an event, Chuck has it marked on his calender.
I don't know how he does it.

I wonder if Scott Baugh will ask the Sherrif to resign as he did the Fleming Trustees in the CUSD?

Are you kidding. If we're lucky, Scott Baugh will be the next one to be indited... again!
