Andrew passed away unexpectedly from natural causes shortly after midnight this morning in Los Angeles. We have lost a husband, a father, a son, a brother, a…

Happy Valentine’s Day from Jon Corzine

It’s not $1.5 Billion, Save Jerseyans, and I know Carla Katz’s gifts were more opulent. But this card will do if you STILL haven’t picked up a Valentine’s Day greeting for your loved one:                             If you enjoyed it, click here to send a…

Valentine’s Day Ode to the NJ Political Operative

Political Operative

Candidates and pundits get most of the glory, Save Jerseyans. But it’s the political operatives who do the heavy lifting. I’m not talking about high-powered consultants. I’m talking about the political science majors working 18 hour days for peanuts, enduring long periods of unemployment while campaign budgets are drafted and finance committees are formed, changing outfits in…

OPEN THREAD: Are Tax Credits the Best Way to Keep Jobs in Jersey?

coins

Pearson Education, a publishing company headquartered in Saddle River, NJ, has announced that it will be moving its base of operations to Hoboken rather than going across the Hudson. This result comes through the extensive lobbying efforts led by the Governor’s Office and the benefit of a targeted tax credit. This is of course good…

New York Giants Alumni Against Abortion

Screen shot 2012-02-05 at 3.36.01 PM

Sometimes its not easy (or popular) to stand up for the most vulnerable members of our society. Current New York Giants co-owner Steve Tisch might support pro-abortion candidates, but many prominent New York Giants alumni including Mark Bavaro, George Martin, Phil McConkey, Phil Simms, Chris Godfrey, and Jim Burt are solidly pro-life. The “Champions for Life” video posted…

OFFSIDES! Both Super Bowl XLVI Teams Give Big to Democrats

Football

It’s a damn shame that neither my Philadelphia Eagles nor New York Jets made it to Super Bowl XLVI, Save Jerseyans. When Democrat team owners get rich from championship-induced merchandise sales and promotional deals in February, that only helps the Democrat candidates they bankroll in November! As a general matter, NFL money flows heavily in the GOP…

VIDEO: Bob Bowden Hosts School Choice Panel in Jersey City

Bob Bowden, Creator of THE CARTEL education reform documentary.

Far too often, Save Jerseyans, it’s hard to have a serious policy debate in the state legislature because many of its members are beholden to powerful special interest groups. The New Jersey Education Association (NJEA) comes to mind. Trenton being what it is, private citizens need to step up and carry the torch. For example,…

OPEN THREAD FRIDAY: Komen’s Weakness Invites Future Attacks

susan-g-komen

We all know what Governor Christie endured from the vicious liberal establishment when he cut Planned Parenthood funding. Now the entire country knows. You’ve undoubtedly heard by now that the Susan G. Komen organization has appeared to reverse itself; that would mean America’s leading anti-breast cancer foundation would resume disbursing funds to Planned Parenthood’s abortion mills. A few reports…

Mitt’s Right: Some Americans Largely Immune to Market Forces

bain capital

You may still think Mitt Romney is a “RINO” establishment villain, Save Jerseyans. It’s your right to be wrong. I’ll fight to defend it! But as of right now, he’s undeniably the most honest Republican with a national platform. He said something this week worthy of that lofty distinction; something we’ve all been thinking for a…

VIDEO: Kyrillos Family Takes U.S. Senate Campaign Launch to South Jersey

A candidate’s true home is the road, Save Jerseyans. After U.S. Senate hopeful Joe Kyrillos got things rolling on Wednesday morning in his home county of Monmouth (click here for our contributor Charles Measley’s video and event summary), he loaded his family into their car and headed south on I-295 to the Burlington County community of Marlton….

EPA’s Lisa Jackon has a Bridge to Sell You

Here’s your daily dose of political levity, Save Jerseyans. President Obama’s Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator and the former New Jersey Deptartment of Environmental Protection (DEP) Commissioner under Jon Corzine (quite a resume, huh?), Lisa Jackson, is returning to New Jersey later this month. She has openly accused Congressional Republicans of endangering millions of lives for opposing her…

The Gay Marriage Debate is Over in New Jersey

gaymarriage

The most common question I’ve fielded over the last two weeks: “Why aren’t you speaking out against S-1 more forcefully, Matt?” It’s a fair question. I had plenty to say about the topic last time around in December 2009/January 2010. Part of the answer is “because there’s infinitely more important issues out there” to discuss. Iranian…
