Establishment on the move
This is very courageous move, but what does it mean? Is Estabrook candidacy sinking? Is Jersey Joe candidacy rising up? Maybe Dr. Sabrin is gaining?
What a suspense!
Duh Duh Duh
Steinhardt must have seen the video of Estabrook standing sliently trying to remember her positions on gun control.
This only means that the Chairman
is worried about his own re-election chances this year. He has been out of touch with the rank and file in Warren County since day one.

Who gets to pull the knife out of Estabrook's back?
Mr. Democrat
Maybe she forgot to say, "Shouldn't you be doing this?"
by Trochilus
The writing is on the wall
for Anne. Then again, it has to - she couldn't find the note.
Clearly
After the failure of Estabrook's campaign to secure Union County Saturday, coupled to the fact that she is just no prepared for the job as a U.S. Senator, there will be people fleeing the camp like rats from a sinking ship..
Sad he's going to Pennacchio's camp though. Shows that he is just a sheep like many in the republican party in NJ these days, and has no backbone to support real republican values.
