Damn! I was so damned nervous. I kept seeing all these Shitarelli signs when I drove to work.

We are the State after all, that elected that asshole Chris Christie, as well as Christie Whitman.

After the tragedy of Ms. Rodam Clinton and the wonderful Kamala, I was losing hope.

Congratulations NEW JERSEY.

...any such thing as a "good Republican."

Maybe Gerald Ford was as was his contemporary Jacob Javits, but otherwise one needs to go all the way back to Dwight Eisenhower, imperfect, but a good man overall.

In Ocean County there were Jack-Ciatt signs all over the place. I wish this county would start turning blue.

...in Seaside Heights.

As men, they want no part of it now. My wife and I still go, but the boardwalk shops can certainly leave one with a sense of the obscene.

I once saw a Biden flag on a house in Seaside Heights, which astounded me.

I don't get it.

I live in Mercer County, which is about as close to heaven as one can have in a life.
