people. stop voting along party lines and vote for the candidate instead. Here in NJ we have the incumbent Democrat Robert Menendez running to hold his position in the senate, yet he is under federal investigation for fraud. I dont even know why he is running. I am a democrat but I will NOT be voting for him

And yet he is not under federal investigation. You are willing to believe the swift boat liars and vote for a bush rubber stamp? You are obviously not a real democrat if you are willing to vote for a right-winger.

But Menendez is not "under federal investigation." The prosecutor served subpoenas on the nonprofit group, not Menendez. And on September 20, Ellen L. Weintraub, a former lawyer for the House ethics committee, said she would have advised Menendez that leasing property he owned in Union City to a federally funded Head Start office was not a conflict of interest. Weintraub, who is now a commissioner on the Federal Election Commission, also said it would not be a conflict under House rules for a member of Congress to advocate for and vote for federal funding for an organization to which he rented office space. According to a 1996 news account of the story in the Jersey Journal, the lease rate of $9.30 per square foot was less than the market rate at the time. The specifics of this accusation have slowly faded from the Kean campaign, but not the false accusation that Menendez is "under federal investigation."
Republican attack ads have turned what should have been a romp for the incumbent Democratic Senator, Robert Menendez into a close race. The Republican candidate, Tom Kean Jr. is the son of Tom Kean, the popular and well-respected former Governor of New Jersey and 9- 11 Commission Co-chairman. But the heart of Kean's campaign is incendiary ads claiming that Menendez is corrupt. The conservative Free Enterprise Fund Committee, funded by Republican homebuilder Bob Perry of Houston, who backed the "Swift Boat" ads that helped sink John Kerry in 2004, has reinforced Kean's TV messages. Last week, the FEFC launched a Soprano's-style ad in several New Jersey counties to highlight Menendez's "shady record as a politician."

I doubt you'll get any. None so far anyways.

These days, honest conservative = oxoymoron.
