The Menendez situation here in NJ is interesting; it ended with a hung jury, but people (including politicians) are VERY concerned about what becomes acceptable behavior if he isn’t convicted.
I really can’t comprehend how a state that elected Christie twice also elects Menendez and Booker...
Worse now; our governor-elect wants a $15.00 minimum wage and legal "recreational" marijuana. There will be no threat of vetoes to hold our profligate RAT-dominated legislature in check, either.
