New Jersey Democrats Vie for Chicago's Title as Most Corrupt in Nation; Up the Ante with New Low-- Human Organ Trafficking

Two mayors (Hoboken and Secaucus) arrested, plus the former mayor of Bayonne, plus 27 others, for money laundering and corruption. All but a couple are, of course, Democrats.

The media would like to bury this, as usual, but the Jersey Democrats have announced they won't be ignored -- and tossed in the illegal trafficking of a human liver just to make the MSM's job more difficult.

But I think they're up to it.

By the way, the arrests come thanks to a two-year investigation launched by the front-running Republican candidate for governor, Chris Christie.

UPDATE (P.A.)
Reuters is using the term "culture of corruption" as subhead in this story. The FBI SAC said "It has become ingrained in New Jersey's political culture," and its "a cancer."

Update [ace]: Must have been hard for the AP to admit this:

Among the 44 people arrested were the mayors of Hoboken, Ridgefield and Secaucus, Jersey City's deputy mayor, and two state assemblymen. A member of the governor's cabinet resigned after agents searched his home, though he was not arrested. All but one of the officeholders are Democrats.

I'll bet anything pretty much all of the non-officeholders are Democratic functionaries/bagmen, too.

Thanks to AHFF Geoff.
