Manzo gets ready to go on the air
By Matt Friedman, PolitickerNJ.com ReporterFormer Assemblyman and potential Jersey City mayoral candidate Lou Manzo plans to air three commercials for his public advocacy office this month.
Two of the commercials explain the role and accomplishments of the office he set up last year, which occupies his old legislative office space. The other ad will take a critical look at Jersey City Mayor Jerramiah Healy.
“I don’t know that it’s negative on Healy. It’s just pointing out that he’s not attentive to conducting business as a mayor and if you have a problem you can always get us.”
While Manzo acknowledged that the commercials could help position him for a mayoral run, he warned not to assume that it means he’s in the race. Manzo, who has run for mayor four times before, won’t enter the race unless State Sen. Sandra Cunningham declines to go for it herself, possibly giving him a ticket back to Trenton. Manzo lost to Cunningham in last year’s State Senate primary.
“I made it clear that if I was a candidate I’d be in the field right now. I’m waiting to see what Sandra Cunningham does and I’ll take it from there,” he said. “I don’t dance around. If I’m in it, I’m in it.”
Mayor Healy started airing his own positioning commercials earlier this year, which tout the accomplishments of his administration.

Shouldn't that say "Former Assemblyman and perennial Jersey City mayoral candidate Lou Manzo"? Oh, and 4 time loser.
There is a reason
There is a reason why they call him Looney Lou, the four time Mayoral Jersey City Candidate LOSER. Jersey City Voters have rejected this clown 4 times and he still doesn't get it!
Manzo is getting desperate, very very desperate.
hey look at me.
Say one thing for Fulop he sure has Smoked all these Has beens out of the closet.
Manzo and Shundler have jumped the gun just because Fulop has gotten so much press lately.
Ten months out is an awful long time to be running.
What a waste!
Manzo should be looking to become an at-large candidate on someone's team if he really wants to get into Local government. He's wasting time and money running again.
Fulop vs Healy
fulop not all that
i doubt if the fulop threat is all that. manzo runs every election, why would this one be any different? bret is probably more tuned into corzine's unpopularity and figures nj might swing to a gop governor in 4 years, so why not start retooling his image now?
has fulop confirmed that he's even running for mayor? or still letting the media and message boards do his work for him?
fulop vs healy? not likely. even if - healy wins. jc demographics don't favor fulop yet.
