FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
The following is a release from Monmouth County Democratic Chairman Vin Gopal on behalf of Congressman Frank Pallone Jr. (Monmouth-6) and Brian Froelich (Monmouth-4) - Democratic Candidates for US Congress in Monmouth County:
"This week, Joe Kyrillos broke from the Republican Party’s stalwart position against raising any taxes, even on the wealthiest people and most profitable corporations in America. However, when the GOP establishment attacked his stance, Joe Kyrillos quickly backtracked. This incident does raise an important question that effects all NJ voters – where does our the Republican Senate Candidate stand on the issue of tax fairness and where do the Republican Members of Congress and candidates stand on this issue. New Jersey Democrats have consistently been leaders on this issue, pushing for a millionaires tax that would ask everyone to pay their fair share.
Now is the time to ask these Republicans where they stand – do they stand with the Joe Kyrillos who has spent over 2 decades in Trenton protecting the wealthy at the expense of New Jersey’s working families and opposed the Millionaires tax? Or do they stand with the Joe Kyrillos who seems to only have existed only for one newspaper report and realized that he was on the wrong side of NJ families in his repeatedly demonstrated opposition to a millionaires tax."

Two Local Losers Of The Week
According to PolitickerNJ (and I happen to agree) two local losers for this past week are non other that U.S. Senate candidate Joe (first I was against the Millionaire's Tax now I'm for it) Kryrillos and former Monmouth County Freeholder and of Highlands NJ Mayor, Anna Little.
Little and her perennial candidacies for office, has become a joke. She has no money and not a chance in hellof unseating Frank Pallone for his 6th District Congressional seat.
Joe Kyrillos shows what an empty shirt he is by coming out in support of a millionaire's tax after he voted against one numerous times in the state senate. He's down in the polls and is trying to distance himself from the Paul Ryan effect by attempting to show statewide residents that he really is a moderate when it comes to tax policy and not your typical conservative anti-tax, anti-middle-class lapdog.
Anna LittleThe 6th District challenger is down to Christine O’Donnell and Michelle Bachmann for support as she seeks traction for a second run against incumbent U.S. Rep. Frank Pallone (D-6). Who’s next? San Francisco Mayoral candidate Kevin James?
Joe KyrillosThe U.S. Senate candidate became vulnerable this week to attacks from his opponent, as Menendez surrogate state Sen. Linda Greenstein (D-14) demanded to know why Kyrillos didn’t vote for the millionaire’s tax if he favors possibly raising taxes on the rich.

Christine "I Dabbled Into Witchcraft" O'Donnell Will Headline Fundraiser For Monmouth GOP'S Star Candidate
O'Donnell's extremist views on evolution and witchcraft find company with the Monomouth County Republican Party and their star candidate Anna Little
HAZLET - Monmouth County Republican Party Chairman John Bennett is hosting a fundraiser for fringe congressional candidate Anna Little with a $2,500 per head sponsorship featuring failed Delaware Senate candidate, Christine O'Donnell.
O'Donnell was crushed as a candidate for US Senate in 2010 as a result of out of touch extremist comments. She has questioned evolution, claimed that the country has weekly shootings and that she has dabbled in witchcraft. The following are some of the many extremist comments she has made.
"You know what, evolution is a myth." / "Why aren't monkeys still evolving into humans?" - Politically Incorrect
"We took the Bible and prayer out of public schools. Now we're having weekly shootings. We had the 60s sexual revolution, and now people are dying of AIDS." -- Politically Incorrect
"I dabbled into witchcraft. I never joined a coven." / "One of my first dates with a witch was on a satanic altar." - - Politically Incorrect, 1999
"American scientific companies are cross-breeding humans and animals and coming up with mice with fully functioning human brains." - Fox News's The O'Reilly Factor, 2007
"The Monmouth County Republican Party and their star candidate Anna Little are teaming up with the most extreme candidate ever to run for the U.S. Senate - an individual who openly talked about her involvement in witchcraft and who rejected the most basic theory of science, evolution. This is who extremist Anna Little and the Monmouth County Republicans are choosing to align themselves with and one has to wonder if they share Ms. O'Donnell's views on evolution, witchcraft, women in the military and the countless issues in which she is out of touch with not just the residents in Monmouth County, but members of her own party. It becomes scarier everyday what a Congresswoman Anna Little would like," stated Monmouth County Democratic Party Chairman Vin Gopal.

Congratulations To Rush Holt And Frank Pallone for Kicking Ass And Taking No Prisoners
Congratulations go out to Congressman Rush Holt for his victory at the polls yesterday. It was a hard fought victory that I wasn't sure he was going to win but he pulled it out with 55% of the total vote. I don't think his challenger Scott Sipprelle, knew what hit him in the end after crushing Holt in Monmouth County with over 60% of the Monmouth voters supporting him.
I am proud today to still be able to boast, that my Congressman is a Rocket Scientist!
I also wish to congratulate Congressman Frank Pallone on his huge defeat of Tea Partier Anna Little and her "army" of of over zealous wingnuts, who often confronted individuals that they perceived to be supporting anyone other than Anna Little. I heard a number of stories from people that were confronted and harassed by Little supporter at train stations through out the 6th District, that type of behavior by campaign supporters should not be tolerated by any candidate, at any time.Pallone easily routed Little and her army and walked away from the battlefield that was the 6th congressional district with 55% - 43% margin of victory, even though he too lost Monmouth County.
Both the Holt and Pallone victories should be held up to all those that doubted their resolve or chances at winning their races, they both stood by their records and were rewarded for it. Many of those that lost races yesterday should have taken a page from the Holt or Pallone handbook by standing firmly in front of what they believed in, instead of trying to hide behind or blame others.

Anna Little: Teabagger for Congress
A friend forwarded this video to me, it's a "Little" tongue-in-cheek but worth watching before you vote on Tuesday.

APP Editorial: Return Pallone to Washington
Another sound editorial by the Asbury Park Press today endorsing the candidacy of Congressman Frank Pallone and his return to Washington D.C to represent the 6th Congressional District:
Veteran Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. has been a tireless advocate for issues important to the people he has represented in his 6th Congressional District for the past two decades. He has been a staunch supporter of measures to protect the environment, provide affordable health care and preserve the Shore's valuable tourism industry. He deserves re-election to a 12th term in the House of Representatives.
As chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Health Subcommittee, he helped craft the health care reform package. While it didn't go far enough in our view to ensure affordable, quality care for all Americans, many of the reforms, some now in place, were badly needed. Parents may now, for example, include adult children up to the age of 26 on their health insurance policies and pre-existing conditions soon will no longer be a bar to coverage. If re-elected, Pallone says he will concentrate on food and drug safety, strengthening the Medicare and Medicaid programs and improving health insurance coverage.
While the health care debate was front and center this term, Pallone has continued to work on other issues important to Jersey Shore voters. The House passed his Beach Protection Act this year. The legislation requires tough new beach water quality testing and public notification standards so that beachgoers are confident that the waters they are swimming or surfing in are clean.
Pallone also introduced bills to end interstate dumping of medical waste on our beaches and to create a Clean Ocean Zone off the coasts of New Jersey and New York in order to permanently prevent offshore drilling.
Republican opponent Anna Little, a former Monmouth County freeholder and current mayor of Highlands, won the GOP primary as a Tea Party candidate. She would work to repeal the health care reform package and believes all that is needed to put the health care system on the right track is more competition and tort reform.
Little supports replacing all federal taxes with the so-called Fair Tax — a national sales tax of 23 percent, she says. That figure is far lower than other objective estimates. The Fair Tax also is a misnomer. It would be more fair to wealthier Americans. While she is free with her criticism of the Obama administration, the issues portion of her website is largely devoid of specific, concrete policy proposals.
Jack Freudenheim of Plainfield, a technology jobs recruiter who is running as an independent, is a sincere centrist who is not ready for national office.
Faced with the choice between Pallone and Little, voters in the district, which includes all or parts of 28 municipalities in Monmouth County, 10 in Middlesex County and one each in Somerset and Union counties, should opt for the thoughtful, considered positions of Pallone instead of the often strident protestations of Little.

Are Little Canvassers Harassing Pallone Supporters?
People working on behalf of the Anna Little campaign were canvassing parts of Middletown on Saturday and I think that they maybe a bit over zealous by the looks of what was left in a few mailboxes of Frank Pallone supporters.
A Little/Tea Party canvasser left a hand written note on some Little campaign literature that stated " Based on the lawn sign I see on your lawn, I know your supporting Pallone. I hope that this may change your mind. Feel free to contact our campaign with only questions that you may have. - have a nice day! " (click on picture below)
Now of course, this is nothing to get all worked up over even though I have always been told that it was not appropriate to leave such things in peoples mailboxes while canvasing neighbourhoods. On a scale of 1 to 10 this maybe ranks a 1. It's what happened later that night where the problem comes in.
At approximately 9:30pm a white 4-door pick-up truck and what looked like a red Ford Mustang was spotted by the resident who had had the Little campaign flyer with the handwritten note left in their mailbox. The resident opened the door to see what was going on outside, only to witness a few individuals hastily jump back into their vehicles and speed off.
In the morning, while retrieving their newspaper from the driveway, the resident saw that the Pallone for Congress sign that had been on the front lawn was missing, all that was left was the wire frame the it was attached to. Also out in the street in front of his house was the neighbor's campaign sign that supported the local Middletown Democratic candidates Byrnes & Mahoney.
This resident was outraged that this type of shenanigans is taking place around Middletown by members of the Anna Little campaign and wanted other to be aware of it. The resident stated to me that "I guess this is what they mean by Tea Party Approved. They will never win an election by threats and bullying people into voting for them. That is how they operate in the Communist countries of the world, not here in America!"
I happen to agree, I hope that Anna Little see fit to address this incident to those that have volunteered on her behalf to work on her campaign. I've heard of other people of questionable character (people with felony convictions) working closely on her campaign, so before this kind of harassment gets out of hand she needs to address it and request that those responsible no long work on her campaign.
