Stay Out of Court, Forrester; Beat Lautencadaver With His Own Sorry Senate Record

Good advice, but just make sure that someone follows up on the legal remedy. Repubs can't let the Rats keep making the election laws up as they go.

STOP BY AND BUMP THE FUNDRAISER THREAD

[Eala]

If it weren't for the precedent, and the end of the rule of law, I'd agree. But I don't. Let this one pass and we'll see increasing involvement of trial lawyers in the electoral process -- and the destruction of what little remains of the system the Founding Fathers bequeathed to us.

[onedoug]

And the Rats tried again to quash our military's votes while they're at war.

Lautenberg's toast.

Take him!

[section9]

Rush is right, but Forrester should proceed on two tracks. Take the offensive against Lautenberg and hit 'em between the eyes on National Security and his Gulf War vote. Then hit 'em with the NJ rate of return of Federal dollars.

Also proceed on the legal track just to keep the Rats in Ratland on the defensive.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

I don't think it's an either/or here. My idea (for what it's worth) is that the third parties should be encouraged to take the issue to court - they have as much standing as the Republicans and stood to pick up a lot of disgruntled RAT votes - and meanwhile we clobber the RAT zombie with everything in the arsenal.

I can see it now "The Demonrats think they need only 7 votes to steal this election. I put my trust in the good people of New Joisy to say different."

[Blood of Tyrants]

What legal remedy? A law that says they have to obey the law? The ONLY remedy is to make sure that the Rats are voted out of office and never allowed back in otherwise they will put in their pet judges that will simply ignore the law.

"Repubs can't let the Rats keep making the election laws up as they go."

I wish I knew how to post a link...but, since I don't...here's information from a new post. (I think you'll like it.)

"Fox news just reported, Ashcroft is asking NJ officials to explain why they are not following federal election laws in regards to military ballots in the switch and bait ruling."

[PeoplesRepublicOfWashington]

Regarding Ashcroft's query--great news!

Our fundamental problem is that our judiciary is way out of control. Things would get better if the judiciary had to live under the same laws (whatever those may be) under which they force us to live. Repeal judicial immunity now!

[OldFriend]

Forrester can and is doing both. Ads are running already and the Court fight continues. We must not act as tho this is of no importance to Forrester no matter how the leftist media tries to spin the issue.

[McGavin999]

I'm with Rush on this one. Forrester should just ignore what's going on with the lawyers and campaign against Lautenberg on his record. Especially hit hard on the vote AGAINST the death penalty for terrorists convicted of killing Americans. AND his vote against going after Saddam.

Forrester should just get out there and campaign and campaign HARD. He should stress honesty and integrity. He should say that there is no sense in having laws if they are not going to be upheld.

[Peach]

I think Forrester should request that his name be removed from the ballot and the GOP come up with a household "name" - say Guliani. What's the DNC or the NJSC court going to do? Say it's not permitted by law?

[OldFriend]

Why not put Rudy on the ballot in NJ and CA too for that matter.

[Peach]

I think Forrester can win, and hope he does. We need a Senate majority to get some of the President's judicial candidates seated, which will slowly change the activist court landscape to a more level playing field. But the bigger issue will not be addressed through a simple win. We need court action to enforce the law - not change it on a whim.

[Peach]

Why not put Rudy on the ballot in NJ and CA too for that matter.

Why not, indeed. He'd be a fine candidate and of more value to the GOP as a vote caster, attention getting Senate floor speeches, etc., than a potential future cabinet position.

Exactly - Forrester should not fight this battle, but the Republican party must. Why? Because it opens a can of worms that needn't be opened. Losing is no excuse for changing candidates illegally and that must not go unanswered.

[dyed_in_the_wool]

Rush is right. Doug shouldn't be seen even commenting on this. He should attack attack attack.
Point out how Lautenberg is as wrong as Torch was on every issue.
Let the party hacks stand outside court.

[AGreatPer]

I think the Republicans sould try and make a switch of their own immediately.

Like Pennsylvania, where Fisher (R) is losing big time against Rendall (D) for governor.

Put the current gov. Mark Schweiker in, the hero of the mining disaster, but not running and say, "Hey, we want to switch."

Sometimes, no, make that most of the time, Demodicks outsmart Republidiots.
