Glading calls Andrews a "compulsive liar"

The good news for 1st District Republican Congressional candidate Dale Glading is that he now knows who his opponent is.

But he’s not happy about it.

"Frankly, I am outraged that Rob Andrews has once again gone back on his word to the people of New Jersey, revealing for the umpteenth time his uncontrollable political ambitions,” he said. In a statement.  “A man's word should be his bond, and Rob should be ashamed of himself for breaking his promise not to re-enter the race.  The people of the 1st District deserve a representative in Congress who they can trust, not a compulsive liar like Rob Andrews."

Glading is running a long-shot campaign in this heavily Democratic district. Officially, his opponent is still Camille Andrews, though she has acted as a placeholder candidate.  Sources say Democrats will meet on Monday to place Rob Andrews back ont he ballot.
