New Jersey: Winner Takes All

Click on image for full cartoon

John McCain keeps riding the wave of his endorsements. In New Jersey, he's expected to join Rudy Giuliani at a rally in Hamilton on Monday, the day before the New Jersey presidential primary. Yesterday Rep. Frank LoBiondo endorsed McCain for the GOP presidential nomination. And today, PolitickerNJ is reporting that New Jerseyan Steve Forbes, a magazine publisher and former presidential candidate, will endorse McCain for President. Both LoBiondo and Forbes had been backing Rudy Giuliani.

Can you imagine how pissed off hard-core conservatives will be if McCain gets the nomination? Rush Limbaugh would have a conniption!

Appologies to Bill Watterson

During the campaign for his senate seat, Jeff Van Drew had to no-deny deny allegations that he was interested in running against Frank LoBiondo in 2008. Now, the closer and closer we creep to the beginning of the new year, the more those questions seem to be raised by politicos in the southern part of New Jersey.

Here's another cartoon I did for PolitickerNJ on the same subject:

I for one am hoping he doesn't decide to run, because Wheelan and Van Drew together are like South Jersey's version of Calvin & Hobbies, and I want to milk it for all it's worth :)
