Bergen County is just not big enough for Steve Lonegan

Steve Lonegan is wasting no time kvetching about Bergen County Republicans supporting the candidacy of County Clerk Kathe Donovan for County Executive “I consider Kathe Donovan to be the Dede Scozzafava of New Jersey. There’s no more far left liberal running as a Republican than Kathe Donovan,” said Lonegan referring to moderate upstate New York Republican assemblywoman who last year suspended her special election congressional campaign after a challenge from the right doomed her chances.

Lonegan said that the Bergen GOP only rallied around Donovan because “they really had no choice. There was a desperate behind the scenes effort to find another candidate, but nobody would run. I was asked to run. My interest didn’t lie there.”

That's because Lonegan's only interested in losing races for higher office.
