BlueJersey Blogger lands spot in this weekend's edition of Power&Politics
If you're one of those political junkie types who can't get enough of the redistricting debate, you simply must tune into this weekend's edition of Power&Politics on News12. The show airs Saturdays AND Sundays at 10am and 3pm.
Several segments discuss the state's new Congressional boundaries, and I get a chance to weigh in as well, debating my (mostly) friendly rival, Chris Russell from South Jersey. Monmouth U. Poll-meister Patrick Murray, Montclair State political scientist Brigid Harrison, GOP lobbyist Tom Wilson and PolitickerNJ's Alan Steinberg guest star as well.

With less than a month until election day, is trouble brewing within the Republican ranks in one of NJ's most closely watched races?
Apparently Vince Polistina's nasty campaign style is too much for even his running mates to handle. So they ditiched him according to the Press of AC they ditiched him:
Republican Assemblyman John Amodeo said that...he and his Assembly running mate, Chris Brown, separated their campaign from that of their state Senate running mate, Assemblyman Vince Polistina, because of a disagreement over the negative tone.Says Assemblyman Amodeo, "after a period of time I brought on my own consultant because that's not the direction I wanted my campaign to go in."
Polistina is running against incumbent Democrat Jim Whelan to represent NJ's newly reapportioned 2nd Legisltive District.
Here's the real deal on Vince Polistina: policy wise he's a political lapdog. When he's not following Chris Christie around Trenton like a lost little man-child, Vince Polistina and his engineering firm are down in South Jersey suckling off the taxpayer's teat to the tune of over $6.6m!
Gasp
So notwithstanding corrupt republican Vince Polistina's "scorched earth" campaign tactics, is it any wonder even his fellow Republicans want nothing to do with him?

BBC interview on Historic British Election
The British media found my "political travels" to be quite novel and copy-worthy. Have a listen to this chat with the BBC about my trip and British politics.

New Jersey roundup Wednesday Jan 27, 2010
To revitalize its economy, Camden needs "top down" solutions to supplement the existing efforts of local resident and entrepreneurs. With Camden's Spanish-speaking population at over 40% (and rising) with city may be poor, but it's spicier than ever.
We've heard it all before, but there is optimism from Mayor Redd's office about the city's future, as well.
There's poverty here, too.
Does Passaic Mayor Alex Blanco need to work his own side of the street?
When snarky blogposts fail....
A boxed toy horse head for dual-officeholder Steven Sweeney? Not very original if you ask me.
Sticking with Senator/Senate President/Freeholder/Director Sweeney, the Courier Post editorial board is not amused with Sweeney's stubborn refusal to stick to his word on dual office holding. This article calls out Sweeney's Freeholder colleagues for tolerating it.
Haiti continued...
New Jersey speaks.
Assembly Speaker Sheila Oliver wants to hear from YOU! And that's why she scheduled bipartisan hearings in Trenton for feedback from residents how to improve the state.
It's hard out there for a conservative activist...
One day he's a pimp. Then he's a telephone repairman. Looks like his next roll might be as prison wife. Stay tuned.
This is an open thread, Blue Jersey. Leave a link if I missed something and I'll update the diary.
