Is Forrester coming up at 6?
To: Diddle E. Squat
WTF ? The run up to today was STIKE ONE (He was getting his ass handed to him in the polls)
The NJSC will be STRIKE 2 (If he's rebuffed there, he get's to apeal)
The SCOTUS will be strike THREE ?!?!?
To: Torie
What could their possible argument be? They have a choice of two, IMO.
1) He was a crook and was losing
or
2) We don't want the GOP to have the Senate?
Fox saying that Bill Clinton has until next Monday to set up residency in NJ and run.
Forrester's on Hannity now.
To: Mo1
THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE Just when ya think ya can't be shocked anymore...
However, if the Klinkster and Her Heinous orchestrated this, they didn't use their usual diabolical finesse. This has got to be a disaster for the Dems.
To: Hillarys Gate Cult
Dems admit the law isn't on their side
In that case count on:
Race card
Abortion
Guns
VRWC etc
To: JayNorth
This game plan by demos has "violates equal protection clause" written ALL over it.
The dems KNOW They are going down.
The crazy thing is, they think the rest of the election is going to be close... we are looking at referendum on democrat terrorist support of the killers on 9/11, the first real nationwide referendum we have had since the slaughter of several thousands of unarmed americans last year.
America has heard all side on this matter. America has decided who will "pay" for our dead family members... The DEMS are the party of terrorists. THEY will be held guilty. They will be thrown out. EN MASSE...
Anyone, including Clinton, can set up residency in NJ by Monday and get on the ballot.
To: Howlin
That press conf 40 minutes of my life I will never get back. I wanted to shoot myself. Do others feel the same way?
To: Diddle E. Squat
I think they will lose in NJ, too.
NOBODY likes "bait and switch" - EVERYONE knows that is sleazy. The "bait and switch" Democrats are acting like sleazy corporate CEOs.
To: Jimer; nutmeg
to that add:
Tortellini - small cheese-stuffed pockets and
Torchellini - small-minded stuffed shirt filled with gold watches.

This is about taking the right away from Forrester being able to win an election fair and square. YEP and Torricelli EVEN said so

Torricelli Quits Senate Race
The Associated Press
September 30, 2002, 5:41 PM EDT
WASHINGTON -- Democratic Sen. Robert Torricelli abruptly dropped his re-election bid Monday just five weeks before Election Day after a bruising year marked by ethics questions and an admonishment by his colleagues.
In a strange irony of life, control of the Democratic majority of the U.S. Senate is an issue. I am the issue, an emotional Torricelli said. I could not stand the pain if any failing on my part would do damage to the things, the people that I have fought for all my life.
Torricelli said he spoke with Gov. James E. McGreevey, New Jersey Sen. Jon Corzine and former President Clinton before making his decision.
I will not be responsible for the loss of the Democratic majority of the U.S. Senate. I will not let it happen. There is just too much at issue, Torricelli said.
The news threw New Jerseys Senate race into chaos. Torricellis woes have troubled Democratic strategists for months as they struggle to maintain the partys single-seat majority in the Senate.
Torricelli, 51, who was seeking a second term, spent all day talking with party leaders about possible replacements and researching the legal issues involved in getting a new candidate on the Nov. 5 ballot.
SNIP ...

This is about taking the right away from Forrester being able to win an election fair and square.Exactly!
To: Capt_Hank
"Bait and switch" is always a loser, whether your a crooked businessman, or a crooked political party.
These are the "bait and switch" Democrats.
To: Howlin
Clinton. That's it! The one name that might just work in a write in campaign. That is what Torch and Bill were talking about. Whether Bill will do it is another matter. This is so so interesting.
