Quote of the Day
October 10, 2008
"(Governor Jon) Corzine understands that his initial plan went too far, and he is now doing everything he can to hold down the increase the Turnpike Authority proposed to the lowest level possible in order to guarantee safe roads and enhance bridge safety." -- Corzine's "best positioning" on toll hikes, according to his pollster, Doug Schoen.

Ha...ha
The trash cans are kinda cute, but still a pretty blah cartoon
This Cartoon
pretty much sums up the campaign.
Nice one...
Another great cartoon Rob. I definately agree that at least Sabrin belongs in the trash can.
Agreed
It seems that the only thing the Sabrin campaign does it throw trash.
It's all so pointless.
It's all so pointless. Zimmer will win the nomination b/c that's what the party heads want. Then he'll lose to Lautenberg, who will win the nomination b/c that's what the party heads wants.
What about us?
Zimmer's dream.
I wish I were back in Washington, D.C. At least there, they pay me.
Why do you all seem to hate Murray?
I went to Ramapo Colege, know him, and he is an honest, smart person. Is that the problem? That he is not a typical politician or lobbyist who can be bought? Can you ever imagine Murray getting caught taking bribes like happens to so many crooked politicians?
Too bad Zimmer
didn't have a clue about Roe v Wade and the privacy fiction issue.
good cartoon
actually looks like the debate
it describes zimmer too
Sleepy and confused
