Jon Runyan wins primary
Breaking news from last week. I can't imagine what distracted us from this.
Jon Runyan won the Republican nomination in NJ's 3rd Congressional District with some 16,800 votes: 60% of the votes cast in the Republican primary. He will face incumbent Democrat John Adler in November. Adler received 75% of the Democrat vote, some 11,500 votes. (NOTE: These are still not official returns.)
I don't think that I am breaking this cite's "no politics" rule by saying that I am pulling for Runyan. My support has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with my support of anyone that played for Michigan. He probably will have a difficult time winning (going against an incumbent in a largely Democrat state), but in our crazy political scene, anything is possible.
I wouldn't say that it'd be crazy for him to win. That seat was Republican help from 1993-2009, and with the groundswell of anti-incumbent sentiment, I'd say he might even be the favorite.

But no matter what, Go Runyan. I loved you as a Wolverine. I loved you as an Eagle.
No love for him as an Oiler/Titan?
I'm an Eagles Fan. But of course I still loved him.
AMERICA!!!
