McHose hires South Jersey operative
By Wally EdgeOne sign that Assemblywoman Alison Littell McHose is preparing to run for higher office -- either her father's State Senate seat in 2007 or for Lieutenant Governor in 2009: she has hired Republican operative Louis Crescitelli as her new Chief of Staff. Crescitelli worked for Congressman Frank LoBiondo and managed the Republican Assembly campaign in the third legislative district in 2005. McHose's mother, former Republican State Chairman Virginia Littell, has openly suggested that her daughter would make a strong running mate for John Murphy, the Morris County Freeholder who is expected to name a second bid for the GOP guberbatorial nomination in 2009.

Under what kind of logic would McHose make a good running-mate for Murphy? She's from an already heavily Republican county, right next to Murphy's, where cows outnumber people and she commands absolutely no base.
Ginny Littell's lust for power is disgusting. If she wants it so much why doesn't she stop hiding behind her near destitute husband and silver spoon fed daughter and run for office herself?

As a Republican, I say bravo to Assemblywoman McHose for seeking higher office. More women are needed in the Legislature desperately, so I will take them in whatever way I can get them.
By the way, I would like to say hello to Bill Castner. I see he is posting here.
