good hire
Solid choice. Maybe Corzine is finally figuring it out.
Congrats to Sean.
No one works harder with reporters or gets it better than he does.

Darcy is a savy Trenton insider who understands the gentle balance between defending the governor and working closely with the media. He will be a critical asset to Corzine and his cadre of senior advisors, particularly during a time when no one believes Corzine is running for re-election. Here's the ultimate question: Will Corzine allow Darcy to do his job?
Stay tuned...

Good luck Darcy. You're
Good luck Darcy. You're gonna need it.
A Fine Choice
