Blog Watch- Ron Rosenberg for Mayor?

On NJ.com's Hoboken forum http://www.nj.com/forums/hoboken/ one blogger MayJune2009 spoke up for the idea of Ron Rosenberg for Hoboken Mayor. The post is #14581 dated 12/28/2008.



With The "Reformers" so divided there is one man that can unite everyone.
That man is my wonderfully charming and always watchful Ron Rosenberg.

  • Ron was an outstanding School Board member.

  • Ron was a strong supporter and friend of our Public Safety officials and
    worked with Carmine LaBruno.

  • Ron is a Veteran.

  • Ron supported Pay-to Play Reform.

  • Ron was a great School Board trustee.

  • As president of United Synagogue of Hoboken he lead the expansion of The
    Kaplan School and the historic renovations that followed.

Ron and his wife are Hoboken treasures. What a wonderful Mayor and First Lady they would make for our city. Ron would be a bridge BUILDER. NOT a Divider. Run RON!

Please note that with NJ.com's policies on the forum as they are, there is no guarantee that the poster is not a poser. My take is that this is a legitimate supporter of Ron Rosenberg. This post is not necessarily my opinion that he should run but my impression of Ron Rosenberg is that he is a man of integrity and he is has the best long term interests of Hoboken at heart. Above all he is a pragmatist.

Assuming that the post is legitimate, any of the opposition candidates who may plan to run including Zimmer and Mason would have to do some coalition building to get enough voters to go against the "status-quo"candidates of Roberts or Cammarano. I don't think Ron will run but the one rule in Hoboken politics is never say never. ◦
