context?

Yeah, what is you point?



Is this about anybody in particular?

In context of the State of MA trying to do a similar thing and get in Ted Kennedy's replacment ASAP

Just a reminder of blatant Democrat corruption when it suits them

Torricelli had HUGE problems with Ethics and corruption, and the polls showed weeks before the elction that he was going to lose...badly.  So the Democrats, AGAINST the state constitution pulled him, and substituted the Crypt Kee...umm i Mean Frank Lautenberg after the deadline to do so.  When they were sued the All-Dem NJ State supreme court sided with the Dems and allowed the substitution to go on, and the NJ sheep, like good little Ruminanats voted "D" and we now have the Shitbird as one of the Senators from NJ.  I fully expect the same thing to happen with Corzine if his numbers keep dropping.  If Christie gets a spike you'll see another 11th hour Switchout, and the NJ sheep will fall in line like they always do.. 5 years, 5 months, and it's no longer my frigging problem anymore.

In my best Captain Renault voice: "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling political corruption is going on in here MA!"
