Sorry folks, I like this Forrester guy, but he is a double-digit loser in "My hometown" state of New Jersey.

Forrester, while he's out there beating the drums, might challenge Lautenberg to sign a pledge that he won't resign from the seat during the six year term, further subverting the election process. (Forrester could close the gap if he finds a way, like this one, to keep the election fairness issue on the table for independants.)

Subtle comments by Forrester:

Lautenberg "cannot coherently defend" ... and "incapable of debating" ... nice touch.

Lautenberg isn't just refusing to debate. He's virtually refusing to appear. Going on a Sunday Talk show isn't exactly a debate. The only explanation I can think of that makes sense for him to refuse to answer the sort of puffball questions he would get on these shows is that the man in senile; and he'd rather have us find out after the election.

ML/NJ

After reading the latest poll postings on FR, I'm beginning to think that this might not be a lost cause after all. One poll site reported that NJ Republicans are furious and the % of Republicans now committed to voting because of this electoral theft has moved to 71% from 66%.

Now, the BIG QUESTION is what would be the effect of a NJ outcome on voting in other time zones like MO, MN or better yet SD and CO? Might a Forreser win actually be a rallying call for Democrats in other states?

Lautenberg Afraid To Debate (Forrester takes to the streets in answer to Frank's "Anytime-Anywhere")

Lautenberg KNOWS THE FIX IS IN...........The illegal ballots are already counted and he's the winner.....The Constitution means NOTHING in NJ and the Democrats have become emboldened to flip the bird to any LAW. What a horrid shame we face.........The Founders of this Country would turn over in their graves if they knew how the Democraps have raped and pillaged the sacred documents they entrusted to us..............WE THE PEOPLE....

Last week Sean Hannity extended an invitation to these two to debate on his show... and added that if, after a week passes and he didn't hear from Launtenberg, he would make public his campaign site's phone number- on live radio...

When is the issue going to be made about Lautenberg retiring because he couldn't stand the grind

Then ask what CHOICE will NJ voters have when he retires and the GOV decides who is the senator

If you've heard Lousenberg speak you know very well why he won't debate. He's senile, and incapable of putting a coherent sentence together.

Another good ad Forrester could run is one showing portions of ads Lautenberg ran or statements Lautenberg made in his own first campaign when he was a much younger man. He was running against the encumbant, a 72 yr. old woman, who's name escapes me now. I have heard it reported that Lautenberg's campaign against her was vicious with the point he kept driving home being that she was TOO OLD to serve out another senate term. Lautenberg is 78 now AND he made it clear when he retired 2 yrs. ago that he had no desire to serve the people any longer. These are the kinds of things, Lautenberg's own words (and if on tape all the better for a TV ad) that will deliver the most punch. I don't believe Forrester should NOT in any way say or imply that Lautenberg is too old, but rather, his ad should point out the hypocrisy of the man!

A closing line of such an ad that would tickle my fancy would be something along the line of, "The age of our incoming senator is not something that worries we the voters, but hypocrisy is!" (Pardon my fautly grammar but you get the idea.)
