I say he deserves our respect, if nothing else for standing up and being man enough to stand up and admit to his indiscretions in front of the whole state/country.

Not only that, but unlike many people who come out of the closet and act like it's their God-given right to foresake their prior commitments and relationships and family, McGreevey had the guts to admit that he broke his own marriage vows, and that that was wrong.  I have to say I admire that.

Try getting that admission out of Bishop Gene Robinson.  Good luck.

Yep, he was busted, what else could he have done

I did not have sexual relations with that man......

Well, if you define sex in way similar to the way social conservatives want to define marriage, well then he couldn't have had sexual relations with any man.  Smiley

Or if you define "sexual relations" the way Bill Clinton defines it...

Hey Beef I noticed the sign in your signature. Why are you supporting Michels? Why not Welch or Darrow?

Russ Darrow is leading the money race (thanks to the fact that he owns half the car dealerships in Wisconsin), but he just doesn't do anything for me, and I think he has the worst chance of beating Feingold.  Next is Tim Michaels, who I have to say is very likable and charismatic.  A former Army Ranger who retired as a Major.  I like Lorge a lot (he impressed me in a public radio interview) but he's way behind in the money.  I have also heard Welch has the best chance of defeating Feingold, but I'm not sure.  More research is needed.  I just happen to really like Michaels.

I will support any of the Republican nominees against Feingold.

I like Darrow and Welch. Both seem like great candidates. Welch does have the best chance against Feingold, followed by Darrow. Michels chances in the primary aren't very good and he won't have enough name ID if he got to the general election. My adivce: If you won't vote for Darrow, look at Welch.

As expected, the NJ GOP leaders call for McGreevey's immediate resignation.

Former Governor Don DiFrancesco (who took over when Christine Todd Whitman left to serve as the head of the EPA) is considering a run for Governor.
