President Barack Obama has not served African Americans well, according to Garry Cobb, a former linebacker for the Detroit Lions, Philadelphia Eagles, and Dallas Cowboys and current GOP candidate for a House seat out of New Jersey. "We have to do better, we've got to do much better than that and I don't think he's done a good job,'' Cobb said Wednesday on "The Steve Malzberg Show" on Newsmax TV. "You can see that African Americans are not doing well. You talk about … minimum wage. Minimum wage goes after young African American kids because it doesn't let them in...

In such a frantic election year such as this one, it is easy for the media to overlook even some of the most interesting political races. The First Congressional District, which encompasses Camden City, as well as most of Camden County, Gloucester County, and part of Burlington County, has had its share of the election cycle attention siphoned away by a hotly contested race in the neighboring Third District, where former Philadelphia Eagle Jon Runyan is running neck and neck with incumbent John Adler. The First District race, although not deemed competitive by political analysts, may set the stage for...

Dale Glading, Republican Candidate for Congress in the First District, will be joined by members of the Independence Hall Tea Party PAC at a joint press conference on Wednesday, October 20, at 10:00 AM. The press conference will be held outside of Rep. Rob Andrews (D-Haddon Heights) congressional office at 515 Grove Street in Haddon Heights. Last week, the Courier-Post detailed some of Rep. Andrews’ alleged Federal Election Commission violations as well as his luxurious lifestyle subsidized by campaign contributions. Glading charged Andrews with using campaign funds to pay for a family vacation in Ocean City, to take his wife...

Glading Picks Up Three More Endorsements Barrington, NJ – Dale Glading, Republican Candidate for Congress in New Jersey's 1st District, picked up three major endorsements over the weekend. First, the 4 million member National Rifle Association (NRA) awarded Glading a "QA" rating, their highest possible rating for a non-incumbent. At the same time, the NRA gave Glading's opponent, Rep. Rob Andrews (D-Haddon Heights), an "F" rating for his opposition to the Second Amendment. Glading was also awarded an "A" rating from the Gun Owners of America, while Rep. Andrews received yet another "F" rating for being hostile to Second Amendment...

An estimated 150 Glading for Congress supporters showed up Thursday to protest Rob Andrews’ reckless pork barrel spending and to enjoy some free BBQ pork sandwiches. The rally was held outside of Rob’s congressional office in Haddon Heights. We applaud Dale Glading for the gumption to pull this off! On his website, Dale lists the top 10 recent Pork Barrel Projects supported by Rob Andrews. Check it out at http://www.glading2010.com For those of you that think this is not “local politics,” I beg to differ with you. What Andrews has done in the congress DOES affect us locally! FYI -...

Dale Glading just might be going to Washington after all. Glading, the Executive Director of the Saints Prison Ministry and GOP 2008 candidate for New Jersey’s 1st District House Seat is again the GOP “David” to the Democratic incumbent “Goliath” Rob Andrews in 2010. The difference is that this time David has some smooth stones and a sling and Rob Andrews has a big head that should make for an easy target. The Courier-Post and other local media don’t consider the race “competitive” and yet both internal polling by the Glading campaign and a recent Accu poll conducted by Spaeth...

This morning, Republican Congressional Candidate Dale Glading blasted his Democratic opponent, Rep. Rob Andrews (D-Haddon Heights), for casting the deciding vote that could cost First District residents billions of dollars. Specifically, Glading called Andrews’ vote to put off debating the Bush tax cuts until after the November elections “an act of cowardice.” “Once again, Rob Andrews has put his own political ambitions above the interests of his constituents,” Glading said. “By delaying a vote on whether to let the Bush tax cuts expire or to make them permanent, Rob Andrews has chosen to play politics with people’s paychecks.” “The Democrats...
