I may not be a big Cory Booker fan, but I want to see him thrash Lonegan,

beat him into the ground and send him reeling out of politics. I want to see that fucker humiliated, crushed, annihilated.

You get the point.

New Jersey is just a day away from an election that may well be a referendum on national politics as well.

<snip>

Booker notes Lonegan used to run the New Jersey chapter of Americans for Prosperity, a Tea Party-aligned organization funded by the billionaire Koch brothers. Lonegan's campaign has embraced its candidate's conservative views, rather than seek to moderate them, believing that can carry them to victory in what could be a low-turnout election.

C'mon NJ dems, exceed those low expectations. Send a message to the teathugs and the nation.

Booker got at least 3 votes in our ward. I'm in Hudson County which is solidly Democratic. Steve Lonegan has a better chance of getting hit by lightening on his way to pick up lottery winnings than winning Hudson County.
