The Governor of New Jersey just announce live that he is gay and will resign from the governorship on Nov 15th.
According to the NJ constitution, If he were to resign now. The position would be held by the pres. of the NJ senate until the next general election (This Nov.) . If he resigns anytime less than 60 days until the election, the person who gets the position will have it UNELECTED for the whole next term.
This is shady business on the part of the Democrats, who know that there is a viable Republican canidate (The Mayor of Jersey City)
They fear that if Republicans increase their voter turnout to ensure he gets the office..it will also effect the Presidential election in that state.
If the man intends to resign then he should do it now. Why announce it and then wait?
THIS IS AN INTENTIONAL MOVE TO ENSURE THAT THE PEOPLE OF NEW JERSEY DO NOT GET THEIR SAY!:mad:
By the way he is resigning because a former lover is now filing a sexual harrasment and possibly a sexual assault suit against him.
This was live on the radio this afternoon. When a printed reference comes out I will post a link.

Sooo, let me get this strait (no pun intended). The evil Democrats of New Jersey conspired with the evil Democrat governer to become gay, get outed, then resign...but only when they're within 60 days of the election so the evil Democrat head of the New Jersey senate can become the evil Democrat unelected governator of New Jersey? Wasn't this the plot to one of the new Star Wars movies?

Yes, but in the movie version Martha Sterwart plays the "other" man, and it's directed by Penny Marshall, not Lucas.

Mietla... you scare me. Your a Democrat right...
I have rules:
When fishing with Mormons, bring two of them... they keep each other in check. If you fish with one he drinks all yer beer and eats all the food and bait.
Since Clinton has announced that oral sex is not really sex, Having known Democrats over for a Rib BBQ is somewhat awkward... frikken scarey.....especially when one drops to his knees to eat a rib and 3 others chat him on...NO MORE DEMOCRATS AT MY HOUSE!!!
BTW Kerry and Edwards are Gay.

Ever since you came back you have stopped making sense to me. Either get back on the drug from your lost month or take a little more time to detox before posting.

This isnt all about being gay.
He hired his "lover" who was not a US citizen as a State Homeland security rep. The "lover" was than fired a month later when he failed to obtain a security clearence but was then kept on the state payroll at a wopping $110,000 A YEAR
PLUS
he's clinging to power by spearheading this scandle and resigning in a way that does not allow for elections to take place.
New Jersy does not have a Lt. Gov. to step up.....
pretty sad, if he's going to resign do it now.
No one here really cares that he's Gay.

Thanks Gun...Thats what I was trying to get across in the 1st place.

looks like rips hitting that mid life sexual awakening point... circling uranus and crushes on towd and now becoming a democrat.

Why would you think he was forced into the closet? He's not resigning over just being gay, or just "cheating" on his wife. As Gunslinger points out.
I agree any one who would cheat on their wife or husband, be it a man or a women is scum.
However, any excuse he makes or that is made for him about "being gay" in today's America is just a lot of BS. He wasn't "forced" to live a lie" he chose to.
May be he was "confused" or even "scared" but that goes to his moral failing, not societies.
There are openly gay politicians, there are openly gay actors / actresses, there are openly gay business men / women etc...
Are we seeing another "good" democrat that blames his life’s lie on everyone else?
I would hope no one would be making excuses for him.

I assume that refers to not arranging an extra election prior to next ordinary scheduled election ?
And the replacement lined up according to 'state constitution' happens to be democrat ?
-
Well on the bright side he did wipe his chin before speaking on National Television.
-
Even though having an affair is wrong they need to go after this guy because of hiring of his "butt-buddy" POET as a homeland security rep who had neither the experience nor the clearance for such a position.
naaaaahh, the conservatives will have a witch hunt because he chose to leave his kinda hot wife:

If you claim that he would have been just as politically successful as an openly gay man you are in lala land.
Sounds akin to someone claiming that the black guy would do much better if only he'd straighten his hair.

If true, this is what needs investigation and follow-up.
The "I'm resigning........... but not until after the election to ensure my party holds the Governor's office" is just typical political BS. Either party would try that. It's up to the people of NJ to tolerate that kind of carp or not.
Seems to me if you resign.... you resign, effective immediately. That's just me.

7. We know he didn't like bush, but this is ridiculous
6. Now we know why McGreevey enjoyed "polling" so much
5. What do McGreevey and the Isreali navy have in common? Jewish seaman.
4. NJ DMV to now call rear end accidents "a McGreevey"

-
In Massachusetts, as has been debated here before, if Kerry wins the pres. then the governor has the constitutional right to appoint a new senator, but NO we have to give the people the right to vote on it so we are having a special election.
WHY NOT IN NJ.
Maybe because when Dem. see they may lose a seat the have different set of priorities, when is it right to give the people the right to vote, and when should you appoint?

I am not claiming anything. I don’t know if the people of New Jersey would have elected an openly gay Governor. That choice is theirs. They don’t deserve to be lied to just so he can get ahead or get over on them.
He may have gotten elected as governor but he hasn't been that "successful". Even without the current scandal he would not be re-elected. His whole term has been surrounded by scandal; one after another.
You implied this guy was forced into the closet, which is just bull****. I am not sure he was so much "in the closet" in the first place. There have been rumors that he was gay or bi-sexual for years.
The only thing important about the current situation is the fact that he put his gay lover on the states payroll and he may or may not have harassed the guy into a relationship.
Being gay is the least of his problems.
Oh,
Straight or nappy it’s all the same to me. But let’s see a black politician claim he’s not black or powder his skin to look “not black” and your comparison may make sense. Even if a black person would do this they would suffer the same moral failing as the governor.
