Murphy: Battle over Passaic GOP leadership will continue
Republican power broker Peter Murphy ended his silence Thursday to blast Scott Rumana, threatening endless war within the Passaic County GOP unless Rumana steps down as chairman "The party was split on primary night, and if Scott doesn't step down it's going to remain split," Murphy warned during an interview at a diner in Little Falls, where he met with a reporter for the first time since his release from prison nine years ago. "And if the party is split, then we don't win in November - again." (Cowan, The Record)

Americans have differing views of the Reagan years. The 1980s were good times for some, but not all, Americans. But they were good years for Republicans. Not so much anymore. (Doblin, The Record)
