The Torch About To Flame Out?
It looks like he won't go to jail (I don't know why the Justice Department refuses to bring prosecutions against politicians, but that's another issue), but he may not be a Senator much longer. Bob Torricelli can only muster 43% among likely voters. His opponent has the same amount of support. Numbers like that are usually a death knell for an incumbent. (They're actually similar to Gray Davis' numbers, but Simon's are even lower.)

key word being "usually" I hope you're right about the two-bit crook getting voted out, but New Jersey is one of those states that will vote for the Democrat no matter what, so if he's dead even now, after the scandal, and the "Torricelli Principle" that handcuffed the CIA, there's no way he's going to lose, because the liberal press will minimize the coverage of the scandal (FoxNews was the only one last night pointing out the evidence eviscerates the Torch's denials)
