Pallone in the Primary. 26 years means I have 26 years of his voting record to review. And his votes are beautiful.


But - Booker will win and I'm voting for him.


Seems you are out of state - correct?

We have an AWESOME progressive Governor's Race Candidate - Barbara Buono. A lot of centrist democrats really want her ignored/don't like her at all. But that's the real race. The Booker think is not the big deal - since he's already won it.


But the Gov's race - I think if we FIGHT and have the power of Liberals and Progressives from across America helping us - we can deal a hell of a blow to Chris Christie. Even if it's only a $5 donation. We have traitors in our midst who have actually endorsed a Governor who would not blink an eye at sending the women of NJ into back alley abortion 'clinics' in a life or death situation. That is no lie. Look it up. Dems in power are supporting this absolute monster.

I have a sneaky feeling that Booker will also win - then turn around and endorse Christie. Just a feeling that he will do what is politically expedient for him. That's what middle of the road pols tend to do most of the time - so no surprise there.


So anything that anyone anywhere can do to set all the 'good old boys' straight and help a solid Democratic woman out is much appreciated.
