The Christie administration allegedly pressured Hoboken's mayor over a development project Rockefeller was pushing. The company at the center of a growing controversy in Hoboken, New Jersey that is fueling Governor Chris Christie’s woes is a major political player that spreads around campaign cash.   Talking Points Memo’s Hunter Walker details how the Rockefeller Group spends money on both parties, though most of the cash goes to Republicans.

The politically connected real estate group has spent more than $70,000 on both parties, including $2,500 to Christie. Of their 21 donations, 16 went to Republicans for a total of $40,500. $37,000 went to Democrats.  Rockefeller employees also dole out cash, with Christie receiving money from two executives.

 

Quotes from a crazy man

I look in the mirror and what do I see?

To my amazement it is not me!

I turn around but see no one behind.

Where did I go, how can this be?

 

I look closer, deep into it's eyes.

For it is so true, they never lie.

I see much love, they are so kind.

I'm not afraid, I wonder why.

 

Then it occurs to me at last.

I know you, we've met in the past.

Now the memories start to unwind.

It's you, you're me, my how the time has passed.
