This article, is an OPEN ADMISSION by Kerry that NJ has to be defensed

Hmm? Kerry doesn't say anything of the sort. He makes a comment about his campaign which is the sort of thing he's been saying everywhere, but he was in NJ because Bon Jovi was doing a fundraiser for him.

Kerry's New Jersey problem has some Democrats puzzled and more than a little concerned. Speculation about the cause ranges from the state's front-row seat for the September 11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center to Mr. Kerry's monied lifestyle and patrician demeanor.
"It's hard," said William T. Mullen, president of New Jersey's building trades union and a fervid Bush detractor. "Bush wraps himself in the flag from 9/11 and the war. He knows how to play that to his advantage."
Mr. Mullen considered the poll numbers for a moment and added: "Working people should not even consider voting for Bush. Oh, that would be so terrible."

You have no Idea who Bill Mullen (Bigtime Dem Power Player in the state....) is do you? The fact that Mullen is SPEAKING TO THE ISSUE, is the admission.

Or did you expect the Frenchman to come out and say it himself?
