| First it was the fake internet "Hazelbaker Democrats" for Kean Jr. Then there was the fake radio "Democrat" for Kean Jr. Completing the trifecta are the fake press conference "Democrats" for Kean Jr.
Last Thursday, Tom Kean Jr held a press conference with a bunch of "Democrats" who, like the internet and radio "Democrats", said they're crossing party lines to support his campaign. They included Ramesh Sawhney, Jill Sawers and James Geron.
In fact, neither Ramesh or Sawers are registered Democrats in their respective towns. Both are unaffiliated (unless they registered within the last few weeks), and Sawer's husband is a Republican who voted in last year's Republican primary. She also appeared in an ad for McGreevey in 2001 where she said she had voted for Ronald Reagan and Christie Whitman.
And then there's James Geron who challenged Menendez in the primary for Congress last year, lost and then ran as a Republican. He also ran for mayor of Guttenberg as a Republican in 2001.
Tom Kean Jr's strategy to prove his moderate credentials and bipartisan support relies on a giant, transparent lie that permeates every aspect of his campaign. Mr Ethics Reform Junior talks a big talk about ethics, but he can't even run an honest campaign. |
