(VINELAND, September 7) – Senator Nick Asselta – responding to Democrat Jeff Van Drew’s latest press release, posted to PoliticsNJ.com last night at 8:51 PM – today reminded Van Drew that, under the generally accepted rules of political discourse (not to mention the courtesies of polite society), in order to launch a negative attack, the foundation of the attack must have at least some element of truth to it, and that repeating a flawed attack doesn’t make it any more effective, it just makes it look like you’re not paying attention.
