I am so disillusioned with the Union County Democrats [View all]

Nick Scutari and his band of thugs firstly arm twisted local democratic committee members into voting for him. I faced intense pressure into voting for him in an open vote. TWO state senators called me up .. they sent muffins to my house and .. Dire consequences were conjured up for the next year's town council election if Colleen Mahr won the race...

And now they have followed it up the at the Congressional primaries.. while I like Malinowski's resume .. I am seeing some of the ugliest politicking in my life.. Linda Webber was scuttled by her own cities committee president ( Who has corruption charges up the wazoo)... every grassroots activist I know is disgusted and feels used.

If the corrupt thugs think they can co-opt the movement to their benefit - fuck them.
