Hoboken's biggest website exposing corruption and bad pols
Horsey’s Timely News Posts
A reader sent a picture today and we’re not going to say anything more about it other than let’s at least consider bringing sexy to the City Council Chambers if only to celebrate Halloween.
Maybe we’ll have less battles in costume and fighting over voting on illegal, useless resolutions deemed such a zillion times already by the Hoboken Counsel.
Behave or we’ll call in the babysitter on ya.

In a crime series, this would be pretty tame stuff. For Hoboken it’s like being on a merry go round. Amy Sara Clark at The Jersey Journal is reporting on a number of recent cases beginning with the arrest of a Hoboken police officer a week ago in the early morning hours in town for DUI.
Yesterday, the town was riffe with rumors on a series of arrests, including one each from Hoboken police, fire and parking utility. Details were sparse and City Hall and the prosecutor’s office were tight lipped but it won’t last long. It appears to be drug related and it’s going to get worse before it gets better.
being released next week. The Glatt campaign stated it has met the filing deadline and the information on her fundraising will be available in the upcoming report. A fundraiser was held last week and Ms. Glatt said another was scheduled for next week. Those interested can reach the campaign through the campaign website.
Lots of folks have been asking where is Frank “Pupie” Raia and what is he doing? Well yes, Frank is well aware a race is going on and has been crafting a message to reach out and touch you via TV. Word on the street says he has already completed his commercial production, it’s in the can and ready to go.
Cablevision is said to begin airing Frank “Pupie” Raia into your homes starting Monday.
Some polling appears to have been done on his behalf over the weekend but it was too long and cluttered so the results would not be where they should for him. He’s right there with some of the other big fish in the race in the November 3rd winner take all mayoral election.
As Hoboken’s Mayor, Kimberly will apply the same leadership approach as when she was Hoboken’s judge: She will look at the facts and make a decision.

Back in the day long before the Kentucky run for the roses entered into the fray, futbol or soccer was our passion. With the speed of a race horse and the ball control skills of a Brazilian, we blew through many a defender and sent many goalkeeps home crying when the ball hit the twine.
People for Open Government along with the Hoboken Quality of Life Committee are sponsoring a debate for all the mayoral candidates October 14th at Our Lady of Grace. Here’s the complete flyer from the website linked above with complete details.
In our photo series, it’s mayoral candidate Kim Glatt in the spotlight. The former 14 year municipal court judge is kicking off her office on Washington Street at 635 and also pictured above has taken the window with her signs near the corner of 6th and Washington.
Coupled with her confirmed efforts to roll out advertising it’s clear she intends to be a player in this election, competing with Frank “Pupie” Raia for the “birthers,” residents who call Hoboken their place of birth, and Cammarano’s “locked down” vote.

Which Hoboken411 Masonite poster is supporting the family as a campaign paid hit man or is it hit girl, aiming their sights at anything and everything moving on the town’s most beloved website for weather, pipe bursts and store closings. We’re going to venture a guess the payments are much cheaper than some of the campaign’s other costs. Would ole Winston endorse such a thing?
Are the hero G-men boys of summer any closer to announcing our former mayor Peter Camma-Rat-0’s deal plea and new digs? More and more people have been asking the talking horse about the Great Condescender lately. Well perhaps start with asking Gov. Jon Corzine. Word still hasn’t leaked out on what deal was struck to get Petey Boy to step down. Those lawyer to lawyer discussions sure do mirror the code of silence? Is it going to be an omerta opera until the November election? Or can a canary really sing that long?
For the convenience of our readers, we’ve put a collection of the web links of the candidates for mayor on the top right of the site. Two candidates Frank “Pupie” Raia and Patricia Waiters do not have a website but if they do build one, we will add it to the list.
As the bell has sounded, do your town a favor and read up on what the candidates have to say. Speak to your neighbors and share what you think is important to the future of this town we love. And then take your educated selves to the voting booth.
