Corzine yesterday mentioned state Sen. Nia Gill, D-Montclair, an appointment that would allow him to play a role in naming the first woman and minority from New Jersey to the U.S. Senate.

He called Gill "an extraordinarily capable woman."

I bet he "knows" her... ;)

So, what minority does the woman belong to?

So, what minority does the woman belong to?

She's a feminazi?

Probably a hard-left moonbat.

Thanks. I hate the NJ Democrat party for personal reasons. My grandfather was a Democrat NJ state Assembleyman from Camden County and the Democrat party accused him of being a communist because he refused to tow the party line, and ruined his life and scared my grandmother to death.

[TexasTransplant]

Yes he is

Jon Corzine Hints He May Appoint NJ's First Woman Senator

Why? Did Frank Lautenberg die? Is he going to step down so a younger incumbent can run when his term is up?

[Zeppo]

Zing! Good one...

[Coleus]

I love it! I can see all the jaws dropping from the white males and the one light Hispanic male when they read that article, LOL.

Remember, when the disgraced robert torricelli resigned from the Senate race their short list included 9 white males, (pallone, menendez, andrews, lausenberg and bill bradley come to mind) not one minority or one female, so much for the all-inclusive demoRat party. They chose lausenberg to run. And now corzine maybe will choose a black female. It's going to be an interesting 4 years.

naming the first woman and minority from New Jersey to the U.S. Senate.

Ooooo. The democrat white elitist in the Senate won't like this move at all! If she's black, they'll have a fit (where no one can see them), because it'll show the black voting base they CAN get out of their democrat cages and move up in the world with everyone else.

Will the democrats attack her like they did Colin Powell, Condaleeza, and all the other brilliant minds that have made themselves a success in this country?
Corzine is playing with democrat fire here!

"I hate the NJ Democrat party for personal reasons. My grandfather was a Democrat NJ state Assembleyman from Camden County and the Democrat party accused him of being a communist because he refused to tow the party line, and ruined his life and scared my grandmother to death."

What a bizarre allegation for a Democrat to make against another. I would've thought an uglier allegation to make would be accusing him of being a CONSERVATIVE (or Republican sympathizer).

[Grateful too]

The very loud screech coming from the Senate building is just 'Sheets' Byrd (KKK, WV) sendng his reply to Corzine for saying he will appointint a black woman to fill the remainder of Corzine's term.

Way to go, Bobby!
