Just to offer some more on the bizare endorsement the Star Ledger made for Forrester. Why Bizarre? Well, it’s half-hearted, incomplete, and highly contradictory as a writer at BlueJersey.net has pointed out. Probably my favorite passage:

Somehow, the skills required of a United States Senator are irrelevant to New Jersey politics. Perhaps if New Jersey was such an exemplar of Democracy and politics, there would not be the corruption and budgetary shortfalls the editors are whining about. Yes, Forrester’s experience as mayor of a rich town in New Jersey, must by all means supercede [sic] the lawmaking skills acquired in our nations capitol.

What it comes down to is for some reason the SL saw it unfit to endorse Corzine, even though they’re fine with endorsing a Republican while that party is engaged in turmoil, corruption, cronyism, and everything that exemplifies bad government, more so than we could find in the darkest back room of New Jersey politics, the SL is going to have some explaining to do, especially when Corzine is elected next Tuesday.
