Comments on Wife of deceased N.J. Assembly Minority Leader Alex DeCroce hopes to fill his seat, sources say | New Jersey Real-Time News - Page 3 -

I guess I feel bad the guy died the other day but do we really now need his wife to take over his spot? At what point in our country do we decide its not the family that counts but the actual person. I for one have had enough of the Bush,Clinton,Kennedy,and now Decroce families. Does Christie (who has blasted nepotism) have the balls to stand up for what is right?

She will be given the seat and since the D's and R's have fixed the legislative districts she will win the election. She will then give her political job to one of her kids. If any of you think that the R's are different from the D's you are crazy.

By the way after cleaning house at the PVWC those jobs are now being filled by guess which political party.

It is things like this why so many have given up on the political process.

every level of politics is corrupt. every single politician participates in corruption. im sure his wife still wants to go to the fancy parties and provide jobs for her sons and buddies.

i recently saw an article about rand paul handing back 500k of unused money from his budget. the most shocking part of that article is that a senator has a staff with a $5 million + annual budget. its an incredible joke what politicians at every level have at their disposal to waste. the senators themselves should only be part time workers with no salary. their staff does nothing of value to us, in fact they do the exact opposite.

So she has a cushy spot at the Dept of Community Affairs. I might hang on to that instead:

Betty Lou DeCroce, 59, would have to give up her job as deputy commissioner if she joined the Legislature because the state Constitution bans lawmakers from holding state jobs.

Maybe we need a flood for 40 days and nights and start over.

I wonder how she got that job? Honestly those that feel the letter in front of someone's name changes something are soo wrong. Then again the best medicine for politicians is to divert everyone's attention by getting them to fight with each other. So while us dummies are fighting they are all making out like bandits.

people wonder why things like debt limit increases are so complicated. what do we think politicians are doing during this whole time? negotiating? haha! they are collecting money from businesses and other organizations that are afraid they will be among those cut. every political battle is another opportunity for our elected criminals. want to get your piece of the pie cut? dont pay off your politicians and watch your government revenue go away.
