| Newark's long march starts today |
Congratulations to the residents of Newark, NJ for making the right decision (4 years late) and electing Cory Booker mayor.
I wrote about Cory in May '05, saying "Cory will undoubtedly win the mayoral election in Newark in May 2006" and tagged him as my first highlighted Up and Coming Democrat (did I ever have a second?) in November '04.
Cory, a Rhodes Scholar, Yale Law grad, All-American football player at Stanford, who chose to live in a housing project and work to rejuvenate Newark, is exactly the type of politician places like Newark need. I hope that he can get a lot done there in a short time, because his skills are needed more broadly.
I predict the NJ governorship in 4 or 8 years, and then a run for President around 2016. And he'll have my support all the way. |
