Throw in Bob Schroeder and his airplane banner at the Jersey Shore too.
Sal Vega
Soon-to-be ex Assemblyman Sal "I Love Brian Stack" Vega.
Don't forget Soon-to-be ex-Mayor too. It's only a matter of time before he gets recalled.

Another joke of a poll...what's next - The Best Dressed List of Politicsnj
got it backwards , Backwards
That young man in Rutherford got elected on his own without any help from the county. Name one person in the Bergen County Republicans who has done that lately ?
MEDIA BIAS ALERT!!!
Gee, this slap at the Torok's wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that they operate a competing website is it?
Cool it!
What's important or relevant or even funny about this? The Torok's are nice people who have been around for a long time and do a reasonably good job representing their clients. Why beat up on them?
Sal Vega
Lame Duck Assemblyman? YES. Will he be recalled as Mayor? NO. Vega is clearly gaining the public trust in West New York by improving the overall quality of life in that town. He has been a member of the West New York Town Commission for over 15 years & was the longest serving Chairman @ The Hudson County Board of Freeholders in the history of Hudson County. He is NO political lightweight!
WNY
No one is going to ever get anywhere near the signatures to Recall Vega, and who knows where Stack will be in 2011?
