He's on other important committees. It takes a tremendous amount of time to run for the U.S. Senate.

Menendez is the undisputed party boss in Hudson County, and we're going to be talking a lot about ethics reform.

This is another clear example of what's become a pattern, that Bob Menendez does not do what's good for New Jersey, he does what's good for his campaign coffers.

Bob Menendez voted countless times against a national energy policy, I am not denying that Kean picked up contributions from oil companies.

It's a clear example of pay-to-play. These guys give Bob Menendez money so he brings home projects for them.

Tom Kean Jr. feels very strongly that New Jersey funding should be based on risk.

This is a convicted felon. This goes to a larger issue: Bob Menendez has based his entire political fund-raising machine on his ability to work with developers like Charlie Kushner. It's the company you keep.

We're doing exceptionally well. I think Menendez will need every penny in his war chest to defend his record of corruption.
