[ChadGore]

Remember: This man is ~17 points down in the polls. He's whupped BAD. Nobody wants him save for his own ego.

[Molly Pitcher]

He MAY be getting to the point of this dreadful speech.....

[Cold Heat]

He's changed people's lives...Chang agrees.

LOL! They poor guy is in prison for giving the Torch gifts and the Torch is free to spew his BS and affect this countries future.

[Norman Arbuthnot]

NY Talk Show host Bob Grant just said that the Torch should now join the cast of the Soprano's. Grant said that it would easy for the Torch to play a criminal, he would just be playing himself. LOL...

Grant is also saying that ex NJ Gov James "Flim Flam" Florio will replace the Torch.

[Catspaw]

Here we go....

Go, Torch, Go...Go Away.....

[Dog]

DAMN......CLINTON CALLED THE TORCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Oldeconomybuyer]

Sounds like McGreedy and Corzine met with His Torchness last night and His Torchness said "he could no longer assure them that he can win re-election" ... told Daschle his seat in jeopardy days ago when The Dashole was in NJ ... Consulted Slick Willy Clintoon ...

[veronica]

[Monty22]

LOL, he changed lives. Yes you did.. You converted many dems to repubs..

And you wrecked the 2nd amendment, and brag about it still.

What a creep.

[Mo1]

OH YEA RIGHT // Dashole didn't know till today and he understands

BULLSHEET

[Neenah]

"GET HIM OUT, PUSH HIM OUT, WAAAAY OUT!! "

[Brytani]

Well he just invoked the name of Clinton. I didn't think it was possible but my opinion of Torricelli just went further down.

[Peach]

It's up to the people to determine THROUGH AN ELECTION. He's trying to manipulate. He just said PRESIDENT CLINTON called him - how about FORMER. Clinton's voice was cracking and Torricelli admires that man so much!

[finnman69]

[aristeides]

Hannity has it back. Clinton called Torch several times today from Great Britain.

[mystery-ak]

Prez. Clinton called today.....jeeeeez!

[Consort]

[PhiKapMom]

This is a legal opinion that was rendered to Republicans in D.C. regarding the NJ race:

Re: New Jersey – Ballot Substitution

You have asked for an analysis of New Jersey ballot statutes
and regulations regarding a possible vacancy in connection with the
upcoming election in New Jersey. New Jersey law explicitly provides that
when a vacancy occurs among primary nominees, the state committee of a
political party committee may select a replacement candidate. N.J. Stat. §
19:13-20. However, this ballot replacement is only allowed when the
vacancy occurs more than 51 days prior to the election. Id. Inside of
this 51 day statutory window, a replacement candidate can not be put on the
ballot. The only exception ever recognized by a New Jersey court was in
the case of the death of a nominee. Petition of Koegh-Dwyer, 106 N.J.
Super. 567, 256 A.2d 314 (1969), affirmed 54 N.J. 523, 257 A.2d 697. It is
worth noting that the time limit was raised from 34 days to 51 days in
1985. Legislative history from the original statute states that time limit
was included "to afford election official sufficient time in which to
attend mechanics of preparing for general election." Kilmurray v. Gilfert,
10 N.J. 435, 91 A.2d 865 (1952).

[LisaFab]

What a bunch of Barbara Streisand!!

LOL! OMIGOD! Now invoking the i42! This man has no shame.

[NYCVirago]

Torch sez "I admire that man (Clinton) so much." I think I'm gonna hurl!
