State Senator Tom Kean Jr. got suspicious minds to work when he missed appearing with Vice President Cheney at a fundraising event on his behalf because he was “stuck in traffic.” The fundraiser was expected to raise $400,000 for Kean’s Senate campaign. It seems that Kean either lacks a sense of where he is and where he’s going (heading north from Trenton, he took a congested route with traffic lights rather than the thruway) or he is an opportunistic nervous Nellie ( he doesn’t want to be seen with the V.P. but wants the cash Cheney can raise). Either way, there are plenty of both already in the Senate GOP caucus and no need to add to their numbers.
