10 memorable Jersey political moments, 2008 + POLL!

great video (3.50 / 2)

i loved it but i do think the frank lautenberg vs. rob andrews analysis was a little off.

and I believe George Norcross supported Hillary Clinton before the February 5th primary - he switched his support to Obama after the February 5th primaries.

The "Analysis" Was a Joke!..... (4.00 / 1)

..and I dare say it was intended as such.  :-)

Aside from that quibble, Jay has produced a wonderful entertaining and substantive compilation, thanks Jay.

I would include/add the video of last Thurday's senate vote that was tantamount to a slap in the face of the political establishment that wanted to postpone til November 2010
compliance with Voter Verified Paper Ballots. (I'll soon have much more to say on that topic elsewhere.)

By the way, I love the footage of the Oascar party.  The way Steve is silhouetted against the screen in that moment of triumph was a great shot!   My compliments to the cameraman who captured that!  ;-)

Jay's best work (4.00 / 1)

Jay, you are going to do Election Day lunches from now on.  You did a fabulous job feeding our troops that day.

feeding the troops.. (0.00 / 0)

....oh I was just there as archivist.....the real heros of that day were the Jewish Vets of South Jersey and the Spevak family who make thanksgiving totally rad for about a thousand FT Dix soldiers who are away from home come holiday season.

I would have added (4.00 / 2)

the final indictments in the Bergenfield Forgery case and the Indictments of Joe Ferriero and Dennis Oury.  Although they weren't positive events, they were political and welcome ones for those of us denied justice for 3 long years.


One Vote. Yours. It really does matter.
