Lame duck Senate Majority Leader/Hudson County Democratic Chairman Bernard Kenny has taken back his public endorsement of Hillary Rodham Clinton for President. He has endorsed Clinton and told her campaign that he would agree to have him name announced with other key Democrats, but then decided not to announce his endorsement until after the 2007 primary in Hudson County. His name was included on the Clinton press release anyway, forcing a subsequent retraction. Â
Previously, Kenny had strongly denied accurate reports that he intended to retire from the Senate; his denials were followed by a retirement announcement. He is currently denying rumors that he will leave the Senate early to become Commissioner of Community Affairs; high ranking sources in the Governors office say that the job had already been offered to him, and that the longtime legislator has accepted.

how's Corzine feel about that
ummm....does Kenny really think that people in Hudson care who endorses anymore? when he quit on the Senate race, he lost all his mojo in Hudson.
Maybe its out of respect to Healy that he won't publicly announce for Hillary, but I can't imagine that Corzine is too happy about his flip-flopping today.
Something In The Water?
And, let's not forget that Jim Manion put up a post denying that Kenny was retiring from the Senate within a half an hour of you posting the fact that he was, and then later removed the comment from the message board, probably through the editing process, when Kenny "decided" that he really was retiring after all.
You suppose there is an organization called Denier Enabler's Anonymous?
