So are people starting a rally at 9 am? Before the 10 am meeting? If so I'll be there.


I presume you'll be the one holding the sign saying "Infect Colt 45 and Old English with HIV!"

Can't wait to meet you!

I would like to believe it all went down exactly as stated, but certain details of it (involving conversations between the candidate and her husband) there would be no way to verify.

Maybe I'm just an equal-opportunity cynic.


And how would you have put it if you had lost an election to this guy you knew was dirty and he's arrested less than a month in office? Believe what you will, but I've known Dawn and Stan for long before she ran for office. There's no revelations coming, she's an open book.

Just compare hers and Cammarano's ELEC reports. His contributions are all "players", many out of towners, Hoboken 411 described hers: "Runner-up for highest personal investment in the race, Zimmer has contributed $45K so far. The bulk of the remainder appears to come from friends, family, neighbors, and local supporters." http://hoboken411.com/archives/18031


Not sure how I would have put it, but I probably would have let the investigation continue and provide the FBI with as much information as possible, before offering statements to the media.

I get it, and I don't begrudge her making a smart chess move to add to the pressure facing Cammarano. It just reads as pretty gosh-golly. And nobody likes a martyr.

I hope Cammarano is run out of there on a rail, and I hope Dawn gets her chance to run Hoboken. I just found the press op a little tacky and obvious.

Good for you for name dropping that you've got a personal relationship with Zimmer. Must mean your opinion is more objective, or at least more valuable.

You guys seem to be describing some kind of automotive thing? I thought the jitney/shuttle was a high speed helicopter or at least jetted tram passing well over the slums below?

You mean it must actually travel along Bergen Avenue, Yeccch! I'm surprised the creme de la creme who live in the hospital would tolerate the squalor.


Considering the Beacon bus takes residents directly to the Grove Street and Exchange Place PATH stations, why would it travel along Bergen Avenue?

There's a whole world outside of Newport. If your thing is being smug and snarky, at least take the minute and a half to open google maps and get your tired insult straight.
