Mayor Paul Aronsohn’s old boss Jim McGreevey denies rumors of possible return to politics

Former Gov. Jim McGreevey sounded like a man certain about his intentions when asked about rumors flying around his home city that he has been mulling a return to politics after nearly eight years out of the public eye.

“Absolutely not,” McGreevey said Friday.

McGreevey and his longtime partner, Mark O’Donnell, moved to Plainfield in 2006, settling into a breathtaking, ivy-covered Colonial mansion on Prospect Avenue. The former governor had stepped down from that post about two years earlier with the bombshell admission that he is “a gay American,” words he used during a nationally broadcast television appearance in which he revealed his sexual orientation and an intent to resign.  (Spivey, Asbury Park Press)

  1. Yes it’s true.
    He is returning to Politics.
    He’s coming in the back door.

    1. Interesting topic gets an initial first junk comment.
      Read the LINK story first.

      He has no plans to run again.

  2. yea he is already the douchebag of the universe , you cant beat that

  3. pair him up with Snooki and redo the “New jersey and You ” commercials but thhey can call em “New Jerky and You “

  4. I thought he had become a TV evangelist ?

  5. tell me he didn’t really pose for that pic…oh Lord lol

  6. PJ was he a client of Whitehorse too ?

  7. Nobody would vote for this incompetent jerk. He chose to ‘come out’ so that would be ‘the story’ rather than the total mess he created for the state. The press left him alone rather than be accused of gay bashing when they tell the truth-he created massive debt, hired huge numbers of state workers whose pensions and benefits will cost every NJ taxpayer for generations.
    Typical loser democrat who never held a real job in the private sector and spent his career pissing away the tax dollars of hard working NJ residents. Good riddance.

  8. He is going to run for the next Village of Ridgewood or should I say the City of Ridgewood Council election.Its where all failed politician go to get a restart and build their base.
