If ever there was a time to roll-out the phrase “typical Hudson County politician” it’s now. Menendez is the poster child for that brand of self-dealing, always on the take, to hell with the people I actually represent as long as I can line my pockets corruption. Hugin is a successful businessman, veteran of the military and as upstanding a citizen as NJ has. It’s no wonder the screeching, unhinged left hates him. What’s less clear is why people would even consider voting for the worst case example of the Hudson County machine.
How does anyone who votes for this guy sleep at night ?
For some odd reason, we in NJ love our machine politicians. RM is Hudson County’s gift to the state and he just keeps chugging along, no matter what shady deals he gets involved in. Paul Sarlo, the Ziza clan, the Tedescos, etc, etc. The problem is no term limits and pay-for-play as a political sport. Once these folks get in, they never get out.
Iceburgs are 80 percent below the water line and they rarely roll over for anything
but their own pocketbooks or agendas.
