McGreevey to resign?

Jeff Jarvis has a McGreevey resignation roundup, via InstaPundit.

It's such a shame. New Jersey is notorious for having a corrupt political system, yet New Jerseyans keep making the same mistakes. In the last election, I looked at McGreevey and immediately pegged him as a corrupt rat of a politician, while Schundler struck me as a very good, honest, smart man. It was a no-brainer, yet most of New Jersey didn't agree.

Most of New Jersey was wrong.


Whoa, McGreevey is a homosexual! What the??

Good, he's resigning too. I think he's using this largely as a reason to resign for "personal" reasons rather than wait a little bit and have to resign anyway because of his corruption.

Oh, and "I'm a gay American". It's like he considers it an ethnicity!


Someone on Fox News correctly referred to this as a "preemptive strike". He posited that some "unflattering" information will be coming out (probably including sordid details of his homosexual affair) as part of a civil suit against him, so McGreevey chose to put out the information himself rather than let it be revealed as part of the suit.

They referred to it as a traditional lawyer's tactic, that it's better to get bad information out yourself than to let others reveal it.

Update: Probably the last thing I'll have to say about this. According to LGF, the person McGreevey hired to preside over homeland security and the safety of New Jersey was unqualified, and was hired only because he was McGreevey's lover. How despicable.

Update: Clayton Cramer has more.
