I sure hope menendez gets the boot. But this is new jersey home of the weenie liberal.

Joe Kyrillos is going to beat Menendez like a Democrat Donkey!

Who is this Joe Kryillos you speak of???

Menendez is one in the same as Obama. His campaign ad is an Obama talking points ad. Hope he falls like Obama did last night. He's been in washington too long. Time to end his "career politican" days.

Both of these party hacks are not what NJ needs or deserves. Robert Turkavadge, an Independant, is the REAL change we need. Look up this ex-FBI man on google. You will be impressed, you will vote for him to be our next US Senator from the great State of NJ.

Anyone but Menendez is fine by me. He is a total failure. He has done nothing for NJ or the middle class. He had 6 years and we have no jobs, high debt and trillion dollar deficits. He has failed. FIRE HIM

"Senator Spendendez" must go! Anybody is better than him, even Kyrillos!

It's rare that we, the NJ public, get an opportunity to witness for an hour why the NJ Senate is a clubhouse of the most unaccomplished senior politicians in NJ, regardless of political party. For almost an hour, State Senator Joe Kyrillos promised to solve all the problems in the world without providing one hint of how he would do it aside from vague, unknown, and unsupported accomplishments of his in the state Senate. Frankly, I find it hard to accept Joe was ever in touch with the issues in this debate. Senator Menendez is running for reelection on his record and had no problem providing example after example of such. At the very least, Senator Menendez is aware of the realities America must deal with today. Joe, stick to beach badge regulations. Please.

For Years & Years Kyrillos Did Nothing about NJ Property Taxes so what gives him the nerve to go to Washington?

Hey Mac, tell that to the people who USED to work at Ft. Monmouth. You can try to blame that on Bush too but it was Menendez's comrades from Maryland who cooked the books (or was sauteed). When the return we get from Washington is anywhere near what we pay them, you can say Menendez, lautenberg, etc. are doing a good job.

Kyrillos is a joke. . .Republican sacrificial lamb to fill the ballot box!

Tonto for years Democrats have controlled the State House and yet we have the highest property taxes in the land. Even today, the Democrats in both chambers sit idle when it comes to eliminating pensions and benefits that force high property taxes on us.

Kyrillos is a lamb - the bi-partisan "backroom" deals are already struck, because the real leadership of both parties are the same people - the lobbyists and special interests who sign the big checks. Want to see that end? Read the "PLEDGE" at "ChangetheRulesPledge.org"

Same thing in our district - "one" of the candidates is running a 'no-campaign'-campaign. The only message is negative to the other candidate - no plan, no goals, no direction. The fix is in - raise the money to use it where it matters, and win where you can win.

I'll bet a cup of coffee and a slice of pie at Lucille's on # 539 that "somebody" receives a judgeship out of this, because there was no chance for that candidate to serve out more than 5 full years in Congress - you have to be re-elected twice for that - and the other party knows the State will be going "the other way", so the cut the deal to retain their leadership in the few Counties they still run.

Did you like the new yard signs in Lacey? Your tax dollars at work.

(takes five years served to receive the "lifetime" benefits)\

Why can't the people of NJ see through this and rid ourselves of @ least one "do nothing, obama supporting democrat senator" personally it would be a good balance, remember what that use to mean?
Besides you still have the Mellisian Fenwick other democrat there, give it a chance.

Kyrillos did nothing about High NJ Property Taxes.

Kyrillos did "0" for reducing Property Taxes and how many years was he camped out in the NJ legislature? And now he thinks that poor performance deserves a Ticket to Washington ???????

@Tonto....Explain what that self-serving do-nothing Menendez did for this state.

Would like to see them debate with all candidates on the ballot - but, of course, we can't have that, now, can we...

Yup. Tired of a two-horse race where the same stables own both horses? "Democratic-Republican" Eugene M. LaVergne is ALREADY working for YOUR rights, using the Constitution - the whole Constitution.

1.) Proposed the "Change the Rules Pledge", a means to effectively prevent "pay-to-play" politics in the House and Senate, using the "separation of powers"

2.) Discovered the ratification votes for Connecticut and Kentucky for "Article the First" of the "Articles of Amendment" ("Bill of Rights"), proving that the amendment has been the law of the land for 220 years - and breaking the grid-lock and two-party imprisonment of your voice in Congress.

3.) With his fellow "Democratic-Republicans", suing to compel fair ballot placement, and to insure that our First and Fourteenth Amendment Rights are not trampled - while exposing balloting fraud extending across the State.

4.) Seeking to expose illegal manipulation of the bidding on and awarding of contracts at the municipal, county, and State level. The best place to cut government waste is to stop graft, fraud, and pay-to-play politics.

5.) Preparing the "Responsible Representation Act", compelling any Federal Legislation ONLY deal with the issue presented, with no PORK. A Health Care Bill should not have pothole repair funds in it.

6.) Proposing an alternative to ACA that leaves Medicare/Medicaid intact, but widens the aperture to access. There is no need to duplicate the existing bureaucracy.

Many American companies R Dependent on government yet Romney says nothing about them he only attacks little old ladies on Social Security or Veterans.

State & Local govts give away 70 billion $$ a year in tax breaks to companies.
