VIRGINIA POSTREL likens the New Jersey decision to “Calvinball” and asks:

If they’re so worried about giving the voters “the choice they deserve,” where were the New Jersey Supreme Court and the NYT in 1984, when my ballot offered the choice (I am not making this up) between Tip O’Neill and a Communist?

Howard Kurtz, meanwhile, observes that:

Bob Torricelli is no longer a New Jersey issue.

He’s an albatross that conservatives want to hang around the neck of every breathing Democrat.

He’s their new symbol of self-indulgent sleaze, rule-bending and evading responsibility.

Judging by what I heard of Neal Boortz’s show on my drive into the office, I’d say he’s right.
