Quote of the Day
October 15, 2008
"The Kaisers are a fixed point in an ever-changing universe. If the Republicans are in charge, they have jobs. The Democrats are in charge, they have jobs. That's a far cry from Andrew Jackson, who said, 'To the victor go the spoils.' The Kaisers always gets the spoils." -- Bergen County GOP leader Alan Marcus, on Leonard Kaiser, a former Republican Freeholder and Mayor who later went into business with Democrats Joe Ferriero and Dennis Oury.
