VIDEO: Donovan Discusses Bergen GOP Civil War, Says “Too Many Freakin’ Layers of Government in New Jersey”

Yudin, in 2012, with former County Executive Kathe Donovan, an arch-enemy of Saudino.

Things are getting out-of-control in Bergen County very quickly, Save Jerseyans, as Republicans continue to claw at each other in what looks to be a potentially ruinous primary season.

The woman at the center of it all, County Executive Kathe Donovan (R), sat down yesterday with NJToday Managing Editor Mike Schneider to discuss the latest developments in this intra-party war including the legal battle between her office and the Republican-controlled freeholder board. Moreover, when asked about it specifically, Donovan alleged that one of her aides was threatened by a Bergen GOP leader but declined to elaborate or name names.

Donovan also weighed in on the omnipresent issue of property taxes; she estimates that we could cut property taxes by roughly one-third by consolidating municipal services (she was very careful not to propose mass town consolidations, something most state citizens still oppose).

  1. The GOP is always its own worst enemy. Bergen is a perfect example. What a short lived comeback this has been!

  2. You shouldn't take for granted that your feet have not changed since the last time you bought shoes. The rapid growth kids go through forces a change in shoe size quite often. Yet your shoe size can change even as an adult, when you may assume you've finished growing. If you shop in an outlet that sells basketball shoes, they will be able to measure your feet precisely. There should not be any sense of a loose or insecure fit when you try your basketball shoes on. The proper fit of a shoe does not allow any sort of room for slippage.

    To find the best basketball shoes for your next pair, you need to remember the above suggestions. Your shoes should be so comfortable when you are playing, they feel like an extension of your body.
