Menendez Primary Night Rally

( - promoted by jmelli)

It was a good week here at the Menendez campaign. On Thursday, we officially launched the campaign with events in both North and South Jersey and a blogger conference call in between. SJBrian posted an awesome diary here, recapping the Senator's announcement speech, which was all about standing up to President Bush and the GOP Congress and standing up for New Jersey.

Menendez had stern words for those who would work hand in hand with the Bush administration when doing so would hurt New Jersey, referring to Republican opponent. Tom Kean, Jr., son of a former governor. He declared, “[M]y opponent supports George Bush's war in Iraq and longs to be part of the status quo in Washington. I couldn't disagree more. We need to change the direction of our nation and I will be an agent of change.”

And jmelli, who took part in the conference call despite a few technical set-backs, also posted on the conversation, writing about the Senator's position on Iraq, his opposition to the right's constitutional ban on gay marriage, and the importance of running a statewide campaign, inclusive of every county and region in the state.

We also launched our new website, Menendez2006.com, started moving into our new HQ in New Brunswick, and the Senator took part in a number of other events in the state. The most notable of those had to have been the appearances the Senator made with his colleague, Illinois Senator Barack Obama.

So to celebrate, please join us for a primary night rally at the Brunswick Hilton in East Brunswick on Tuesday, June 6, at 8:30pm. The event info is posted here at Blue Jersey as well as at our new campaign site, Menendez2006.com. I'm looking forward to seeing you all there!
