Now she's saying why is the difference of a few days between 51 and now???? For the love of GOD! It's the LAW!!!!!!

She keeps harping on the number of days and keeps saying if Torricelli had made his decision earlier it would have been OK so why not now?

This is exactly like Florida when the SCOFLA wanted to disregard deadlines!

Can you imagine how useless and pissed off Lautenberg will be if the judges give him NJ because they don't want to be the ones who kill the rat senate majority, and the repubs still take the senate? Lautenberg will find himself as chairman of the spacing of lines on the highway commission. Six long years of getting your pecker slapped every day!

Olsen is now the United States Solicitor General. I doubt he can have any role here.

Forrester's attorney should have said the N.J Supreme Court had NO jurisdiction to hear the case since the deadline for a replacement candidate passed.

Had he said that, they would have leveled him. Of course they have jurisdiction to interpret the statute. Who else is supposed to interpret state law? The mere fact that their interpretation might be completely unjustified and wholly political does not change the fact that the Court has jurisdiction.

The SCOFLAW pods must have taken over the bodies of the N.J Justices. 2000 Redux, minus the Gorepox!

I'm getting the feeling that these justices are not only stupid, but perhaps the definition of political hacks.

Or, hopefully, they are just questioning the Republican attorney to make everyone feel good that their interests were presented BEFORE they drop the bomb and say the law is the law.

You summed up New Jersey Republican politics very well. When you look up the term "marginal sh!t-bird" in the dictionary, you'll find a photo of a typical New Jersey Republican politician.

"Control of the Senate is very important. No, it is not of presidential importance. But I think it is a big enough issue that the USSC will hear the case on an emergency basis."

It's of utmost importance to any conservative SC Justice that wants to retire and is afraid to do so as long as the democrats control the Senate.

Fox broadcast that? Cool! Our own Southack found that tidbit last night. One gave $1500 over two elections, and the other gave $2000... and also gave Lautenberg $500.

This is the way the game is played.

That's the problem. To the dems it is a game, and you must win baby, WIN! No matter what. I am so sick I can't stand it. What a frickin' joke.

Lautenberg is a total loser but he will win in NJ. I'm calling Tom Daschle right now and telling him that he has completely destroyed any faith I had in the American process. It doesn't exist. Laws don't matter, judges are merely pawns of the political parties, and the democrats are all crooks. Every single one of them.

I HATE THE DEMOCRATS!!

Where is this policy set forth in the law?

The only place it has to be... in his brain....That is the only place that the law exists.

How many examples do you have to see to be convinced.

The law is what ever the judges say it is.

On the other hand, if the Repub lawyers do too good, it might not make it to the SCOTUS.

Bad move or not, it is the LAW. The basis is the same for the Florida appeal. These justices are usurping established law. They can not do that.

Their Number is 609-292-4837

I just called the NJ Supreme Court Clerks office and spoke my peace. They have three clerks there who are taking comments from the public.

My comment was that the least intrusive remedy that maintains the rights of all is to deny Torricelli's request to be removed from the ballot. That way everybody has what they had last Sunday, and the only thing the court is requiring is that Senator Torricelli abide by his repeated public committments to run for the Senate.

The clerks in the office were extremely polite and picked up on the first ring. Be nice to them. I know that emotions run high, but it seems like the clerks are trying to do the right thing. Make a good argument, because these might actually wind up being seen by the justices. Don't just spout off.

Leave your name.
