Jim Dandy

OK, we have now all duly noted that Jim McGreevey's campaign slogan in 2001 was "straight talk"...But how long has this been going on?

Gordon Bishop of the Atlantic Highlands Herald insinuated it last May.

WNYC's own Bob Hennelly told us today:

"I will say that I was told by a trooper of some rank who wasn’t on the detail…that the talk in the trooper establishment was that when the governor broke his leg that he was not with his wife but that he was with Golan Cipel and that the troopers had to come up with this alternative strategy and help get the first family all together so that when the press lights came up and looked at the governor with this infirmity the story would work. Now-- I don’t know that to be true. Where do you call to confirm that?"

Can you confirm that?
