I think you are right about that. There is no way he is going to beat Anna Little's ground game. Frank Pallone had a good run, he fooled the people for a long time, but his time is over!
Pallone piss off the DoD workers of Ft Monmouth. When BRAC was announced in 2005 his office was shown that the DoD had the wrong cost data when the decision was made to close Ft Monmouth and move it to Aberdeen Proving Grounds in MD. Other facilities in the US fought the decision with proper data and had BRAC decisions changed. The NJ Senate and Congress did little to fight it tooth and nail. Reason - real estate developers were salivating at the land on Ft Monmouth that can be developed into MacMansions. By late 2007 panic struck these weasel politicians, the real estate market was about to tank and the local mayors were about to be stuck with federal lands while the promise of developers to build new homes evaporated as housing market started to tank. Pallone is about to reap what he sowed. Instead of doing the right thing he did the wrong thing and now it has caught up with him. Hope Little will kick his axx good on November 2.
