I am a Hoboken Democratic Committee Member. I received a letter from Maurice Fitzgibbons who is the Municipal chair of the party. The letter is one paragraph and it says:
Please join Governor Jon Corzine, Senator Robert Menendez, Congressman Albio Sires, Congressman Donald Payne, and County Executive Tom DeGise at a press conference for Presidential Candidate Hillary Clinton. The press conference will take place at the Turning Point Restaurant 1440 Sinatra Drive in Hoboken this Monday, January 14th at 3 PM. Please make every effort to attend.
Like I am some party hack who is supposed to get in line with the party. This is how the democratic party works in New Jersey. Get in line, wait your turn (nationally too, why do we think Hillary is so mad at Barack? He didn't wait his turn) and support who we say you should support. This is why progressive politics never takes place in New Jersey and all of the northeast for that matter because it is run by party bosses and the democratic establishment of which we (the establishment) should get in line and support Hillary.
We need to take our party back from the good ol boys who want to run things like they have always been run, like a fucking golf tournament. No one steps out, play by the rules and if you need to speak wait your fucking turn. I am tired of this and I am tired of Hillary Clinton. I respect her and it is high time a woman was President, that is for sure, but fuck this party establishment bullshit. How do we expect things to change if we do not respect the new leadership rising?
I support Barack Obama and I am proud of it. See what the party establishment in Nevada is doing and know why if we listen to these people as democrats we as a party are doomed.
