Today is the first day of spring. And this spring offers a spectacle that I thought I'd never see in my entire life: Murray Sabrin has a chance to win an election. I've been following Sabrin's career ever since he ran for governor in 1997. He was outspoken and principled, which of course made him persona non grata in either of the major parties. So he ran on the Libertarian Party ticket and managed to qualify for public funding and a spot on stage during debates with Republican incumbent Christie Whitman and Democratic challenger Jim McGreevey. Sabrin stood up there...

The withdrawal of Anne Evans Estabrook as a candidate for the United States Senate makes State Sen. Joseph Pennacchio the clear front runner in the race to take on Frank Lautenberg in November. Pennacchio has already won contests in Hunterdon and Union, and seems poised to win the organization line in Bergen County tomorrow night. Insiders predict that he will also have the line in Ocean, Essex and Passaic counties. His lone opponent is Murray Sabrin, a Ramapo College professor and the leader of Ron Paul’s New Jersey presidential campaign.

Why did the Hudson County Republican Committee donate $1500 to Jeremmiah Healy's (Jersey City Democrat Mayor) campaign in Jan 2007? Why are they using money that could go to Republican candidates and giving it to Democrats? This must be stopped. Speak out!

Supporters of Rudy Giuliani for president are changing New Jersey's longtime proportional representation rules for allocating national convention delegates to winner-take-all, seeking a coup to give the former New York City mayor the lion's share of the state's 52 votes. A June 14 meeting of New Jersey's Republican State Central Committee is expected to adopt a Feb. 5 presidential primary procedure giving the first-place finisher all three delegates in each of the state's 13 House districts, and the statewide leader all 13 at-large delegates. In the past, delegates were divided among candidates according to their share of the vote (as...

Who should I support for a senate bid?

President Bush did not actually invite the Taliban to visit Texas. He merely voiced his approval, in reference to the invitation, his buddies in Unocal set forth to the Taliban. No other clarifications are necessary, for the truth cannot be improved upon. I’ve listened closely to all the responses, and in doing so, I‘ve become confused about what a “Conservative”, actually is. It has always been my impression that conservatives believe in hard work, character, integrity, and above all, self-reliance. Many times I’ve heard tales of conservatives that started from nothing, and using sheer determination and will, maybe some inherent...

Decision 2004: American Jews must make our voices heard American Jews, who value Israel's security, have an important stake in this election. Senator John Kerry has been endorsed by Arafat, and hundreds of Muslim leaders, including the Protocol spouting form PM of Malaysia, Mohammed Mahathir. Senator Kerry's vision is increased reliance on the UN and European Union, both of which are anti-Israel. He has made it clear that he would support former President Carter, James Baker, or someone similar to pressure Israel on the Palestinians. President Bush, while imperfect on Israel, has supported the right of Israel to define the...

Yankee fans in NJ have a chance to screw BoSox "fan" John Kerry. Vote Bush!

While there are many conservative men and women challengers running for the Senate, House, and state-wide offices in New York, it is likely that few, if any will win. Despite my many qualms with the Bush administrations moderate and liberal policies, I see the presidential race as the most important race in this region. While there is no way that Bush could carry NY State, PA and NJ are close races. The RNC and Bush-Cheney re-election campaigns are doing a fair job of mobilizing New Yorkers to come to PA and, to a lesser degree, NJ. However, these efforts are...

Every republican should by Fahrenhype 9/11. Then they should have a party watching first MOOREs movie and then the rebuttal. This is the best way to get liberals to see Fahrenhype, because you will tell them that you will watch Fahrenheit 9/11 if they do so. None of them want to admit that they won't listen to both sides of the story. So they will come. (I suggest also copying Stolen Honor onto a cd or dvd to show afterwards). I am doing this at work in California and I have got a lot of people together to watch them...

Why not go to the Labor Day Concert at West Point? Dull, right? Not really. This final outdoor concert of the season for the West Point Band will last from about 6PM until 9PM, and includes performances by our beloved Hellcats, the Jazz Knights, and the USMA Concert Band. The US Army Chorus will also perform. Now, I am no big fan of classical music, and would not drive 10 miles to see a concert, much less the 2+hrs this trip will take. Except for one thing: On the schedule is the 1812 Overture, complete with cannon and fireworks. I...

Gannett Fails One-Newspaper Communities/Counties- Port Huron Times Herald a Queue for Government Intervention? In particular, with today’s concentration of all reporting medium with just a few companies- who determines the void or lack of reporting in the best interest to citizens. I’ve challenged a Gannett newspaper, the Times Herald of Port Huron Michigan of its obligation citizens in one-newspaper counties. There appears to be an immediate need to make certain legislation be brought requiring corporate newspapers to better report news and serving the communities they cover.

The poll of 600 likely Republican voters in St. Clair County Michigan’s State Representative District 81 countywide found Alloway leading Pavlov by 12 points, 48 percent to 40 percent in a three-way race with Yale Republican Steve Pray Nader included in the ballot test.

I just got back last week from driving across the country, I live in Washington State and drove to PA in see my wifes family and took I-80 and I-90 back home. With my Bush/Cheney sticker from 2000 in my back window along with my W-04 sticker I got a aproviel rating of about 75% judging from the honks and thumbs ups from fellow drivers. Funny how I got the 1 finger salute from the folks with the Kerry stickers. My question to you is do you vent your hate and anger at fellow drivers on the road with a...

Last night, I was told that a report was recently published by some DC think-tank. This report ranked members of congress in order of taxpayer-friendliness, i.e. it examined their votes on tax-related bills and determined where any particular member of congress came in on higher or lower taxes for their constituents. The same person who told me about the report told me that a whopping 75% of house and senate members from my state were in the top 20 LEAST friendly to taxpayers in their voting records. Have any of you heard of this report? Can you point me to...

I've seen the senate races heating up, but not nearly as much on the house seats. I'm mostly using information from DC POLITICAL REPORT and POLITICS1. STATES Alabama DISTRICT 3 - The other Mike Rogers (R) won in 02 with 50.3% over Democrat Joe Turnham(48.2%) in an open seat. So far, it looks as he is facing Democrat Bill Fuller, Ex-State Human Resources Commissioner. I haven't heard much about this race, but the first defense is hardest.

Journalists, political pundits and other Hysteric Left activists are desperately trying to spin some cosmic significance out of Sunday's Spanish elections. The "conventional wisdom" is that the Spanish Election results are some sort of significant defeat for President Bush and the War on Terror. As usual the "News Media's" thinking is neither conventional nor wise. What all the various activists miss is the reality of American Exceptionalism. As much as the International Political Left hates, and try's to deny, the reality is the USA operates on a completely different political level then the rest of the world. On Sunday, the...

The reason for my apology was that throughout this primary season we have been hearing about the record turnout of voters participating in Democrat caucuses and primaries. I bought the lie. The truth is that, except for Iowa and New Hampshire, there has not been any sort of record turnout for the Democrats. Even in New Hampshire the vote was far less than what the Republicans had when they last had a contested primary in 2000. The Democrats this year had 219,787 votes in their primary. The GOP in 2000 had 239,523 votes. That 20,000 difference is major in a...

http://newsmax.com/archives/ic/2004/3/6/121052.shtml Well isn't this intresting. The "objective news media" supposed 9-11 surviors protesting Bush's ads are actually anti-war stooges financed by John Kerry's wife. Please take a moment and vist the New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, CBS, NBC and ABC etc to email the Omsbudsman, the Publisher, the News Editor and demand to know why they allowed clearly partisan advocates of Kerry's Presidential Campaign were presented on their "News" programs with no reference to their ties to the Kerry camp. We absolutely must demand the "News Media" be held accountable for their free advertising for the Kerry camp.

http://www.georgewbush.com/tvads/ Here is a link to the 1st three Bush Re-election ads. As expected the DNC directed its "Objective News Media" mouthpieces at CNN, NBC, CBS and ABC to generate phoney hysteria about these ads. Compared to the demogagery and lies spread by the Kerry Campaign, Moveon.org and the DNC about Bush for the last 6 months, this is probably the mildest sets of ads that have run so far this political season. Please email this link to every person on you email contact list. We need to get as many people as possible to see these ads. They are...

The battle over the New Jersey state budget is heating up and Democratic legislators are working hard to raise your taxes yet again! Your help is urgently needed to fight the more than $600 million in tax increases they have proposed

<p>June 18- The latest Quinnipiac University poll is out, and once again its respondents don't have a high opinion of Gov. James E. McGreevey. But unlike in past polls, the public now seems just as frustrated with the state Legislature.</p>

<p>June 10 - A snakelike conglomeration of thirteen southern and central Bergen County municipalities, the 38th District is home to notoriously fickle voters who are about as loyal to their incumbents as residents of Los Angeles were to their football teams.</p>

<p>June 4 - With a primary season that set spending records but failed to generate significant voter interest over, the state Democratic and Republican parties began looking ahead today to November, when control of the Assembly and Senate will be determined.</p>

JUNE 2 - The depth of resentment among conservatives toward the Republican Party establishment and the strength of several Democratic county organizations are among the issues that will be addressed when voters go to the polls in Tuesday's legislative primaries. With contested races in fewer than half of the state's forty legislative districts and no statewide or federal races at the top of the ballot, turnout is expected to be small statewide. And because most legislative contests haven't received much media attention, the pool of voters in Democratic and Republican races will mostly be limited to each party's truest believers,...

<p>“Whoever murdered Laci Peterson – a mother eight months into her pregnancy – is guilty of committing not one but TWO murders, and justice demands that the killer pay the price. That’s not just California law talking, that’s common sense talking. The question for today in Morris County is simple: where does liberal Bob Martin stand on this fundamental question? Does he agree with his allies among the radical pro-abortion crowd, or will he now stand and fight to protect the rights of mothers and their pre-born children?</p>

McGreevey's Urban Sprawl Ulterior Motive Check out these 2 websites - it looks like Gov.

In the Rainbow Room by Michael Liberatore When is a mandate not a mandate? As expected, the mainstream press is all over the Republican victories in the most recent Senate and House elections. The New York Post screams about the new 'mandate' that Dubyah has to run the country. The New York Daily News blathers on about the Democratic massacre... The fact of the matter is, neither is true. Yes, Democrats lost a few seats in the House and in the Senate. And Yes, they were important seats, because now the Republicans control both houses of Congress, and that essentially...

In 5th, first race in a long time Thursday, October 24, 2002 By SHANNON D. HARRINGTON Staff Writer For the first time in more than two decades, the election in northern New Jersey's Republican-dominated 5th Congressional District is a horse race. But competitive though the contest may be compared with past ones, Republican state Assemblyman Scott Garrett appears to have a clear edge over Democrat Anne Sumers in his bid to succeed 11-term GOP Rep. Marge S. Roukema. The Record Poll this week found the conservative Sussex County lawmaker was ahead of the Republican-turned-Democrat Sumers, 49 percent to 41 percent,...

We are a little over two weeks away from the election. So I ask you the same question I asked myself. Who is going to win the battle for the senate? I have done extensive research and watched the trends for a while now, just like many of you. I finished a week ago a statistical analysis of voting trends in Georgia. Let me also state that most elections are referendums on the incumbents. Candidates have to expose the incumbent. Dole failed to do this in 1996. So here are my predictions. GA- Max Cleland is in trouble. Do not...

<p>In the race for Rep. Marge Roukema's 5th district House seat, Republican E. Scott Garrett leads Democrat Anne Ricks Sumers by a 48%-33% margin, according to a poll conducted by Public Opinion Strategies for the National Republican Congressional Committee.</p> <p>The Sumers campaign disputes the NRCC numbers and released their own internal poll from last week, which shows the race in a statistical dead heat, Garrett 42%, Sumers 40%. The Democratic poll shows Sumers leading Garrett by eight points in the Bergen County portion of the district, and losing by 21 points in the other three counties.</p>
