Kean Jr Accepts BCRO Line

by: Juan Melli

Fri Mar 31, 2006 at 10:57:53 PM EST



From politicsnj:
U.S. Senate candidate Tom Kean says he expects to run on the Bergen County Republican Organization line in the June primary, choosing to align himself with Todd Caliguire over Kathleen Donovan in the race for County Executive.

"It is with great honor that I received the unanimous endorsement of the Bergen County Republican Organization," said Kean. "I am looking forward to sitting down with you next week so that we may finalize my acceptance of the BCRO line."

BCRO chair Guy Talarico gave Junior three days to decide...over three weeks ago, but of course he needed Kean Jr on the line to save his butt. So why did it take Kean Jr so long to decide? Considering that the BCRO has been saying that Kean Jr encouraged Alan Marcus to challenge Talarico, he's lucky that Junior decided to side with him at all. Talarico has been a disaster, and Kean needs better leadership in this critical county. There have been threats of replacing Kean with a conservative if he didn't take the party line, and it's possible that John Ginty's entry into the race helped Kean Jr make up his mind. It was a lose-lose situation for Junior. Now he's stuck with a lousy party chair in a county he can't afford to lose.
