Cory Booker has gotten flack from his fellow Democrats. Some have even called him a “white Republican”, which must mean that he has done some stuff that is off the plantation.
Is he going to break the streak of Newark mayors who have gone to prison?
As I recall - this is the same guy who used Twitter to communicate to his constituents during some really BAD weather. He asked them to tell him where there were problems so he could better marshal the cities resources. He seems to be a doer, and damn the consequences. He also seems to have common sense too - even though running into a burning building might not be considered as such. ;-)
Sounds like they have a hero on their hands - who cares what party he belongs too.
