Forrester's company is getting business through Norcross's bank, so he's locked into the whole pay-to-play politics of this state.

The people are the ones who are entitled to choose who occupies elected office, not the party.

A sitting member of the United States Senate had the power to foreclose on the home of the head of the largest public workers union in the state. That is one of the largest conflicts of interest that we've ever heard of.

One of the highest-ranking union officers in the state is given a half-million-dollar gift by a sitting U.S. senator. That is precisely the type of transaction the Senate wants to know about.

Yet again the politicians and bosses won and the people of New Jersey lose. The judges have totally thrown out the rights of the people in this state to vote.

This win shows progress. We don't want to get ahead of ourselves, though. A lot of people picked us to finish last in the conference, so it would be nice to prove them wrong.
