Quote of the Day
“For a guy who’s got nothing but adoring press for seven years, and is unknown to 70 percent of the public, it’s not easy to win if you’re a single-issue candidate. Our feeling is, bring him on.” -- Democratic State Chairman Joseph Cryan, on Republican Chris Christie, who is resigning as U.S. Attorney to run for Governor.

where's the Sabrin vote?
Its 10:22am and Sabrin is only at 7%. I guess his students are still in class and haven't started flooding the ballot box yet.
Zimmer
Dick Zimmer is a great candidate. It's a shame however, that it took a three ring circus to get him into the race.
Not a good thing at all.
"Political correctness is tyranny with manners." - Charlton Heston
Sabrin Supporters Work For A Living
Obviously, Mr. Democrat, you probably have a no-work government job which allows you to play on the computer all day!
Check back later tonight after Sabrin's supporters have worked all day to pay taxes to cover your salary and pension!
Working Republicans for Dr. Sabrin.
Just got a second to do this. Back to work though.
Mr. D...
It's 11:20 and Sabrin has 52%.
So much for that theory.
Prediction:
Zimmer wins big in June and will be competitive in November.
Zimmer fits the bill.
He does meet the three qualifications required of GOP candidates: he is not a practicing Catholic, he supports abortion up to and including the day of delivery and he is wholly incapable of winning a statewide race as his 1996 and 2000 debacle campaigns showed everyone.
Zimmer has what it takes -- to be an utter bore
I wish I could understand why people would cheer the entry of Zimmer, a political hack who will change nothing in Washington. Of that you can be sure. He knows nothing about monetary policy, and nothing about why we're in the mess we're in.
And like (just about) all other Republicans (and Democrats, needless to say), he has no specifics to offer as to how bankruptcy can be staved off, what with an entitlements tidal wave coming soon and tens of trillions in unfunded liabilities coming due.
Yes, by all means, if you want a hack who will give you some empty slogans and do nothing to avert economic catastrophe, Zimmer's your man. Otherwise, the only choice is Murray Sabrin -- a finance professor who does understand our situation. I know the mainstream media doesn't like him -- why won't he play by the rules and discuss only inanities? But that's a feather in his cap if you ask me.
go Murray!
go Murray! I wonder if the other candidates are involved as much as him... by that I mean he has an active MySpace and Facebook... and a YouTube channel which I subscribe too. =)
Re: studmoose and NJRonaldReagan
If elections were won on the internet, Ron Paul would have gotten more than 2%.
A reader of this site would actually believe that Murray Sabrin has a real shot, based on all the coverage he generates. But look at his track record, the guy has no shot. He's a gadfly.
(and I'm not a gov't worker, but thanks for the interest)
I used to have a Zimmer.
HOW COME WE CAN'T SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE VOTED?
It looks like all those Sabrin capitalists have logged on and made their voices heard!
This is just a preview of what is going to happen on Election Day in June!
A Reader On This Site...
WOULD ACTUALLY BELIEVE THAT THE PRESENT LEGISLATURE WEREN'T THE SELF-SERVING CORRUPT SCUMBAGS THAT THEY TRUELY ARE!
And this doesn't even touch on Governor "I just learned that you can't spend more than you take in" and his expertise in finances and business management stupidity.
The people in this state are really P*SSED OFF now! This is especially true, just in the past few weeks, as our state's house of cards is finally collapsing.
