A Congressman Has Vanished, The Mystery Deepens

About this episode

The episode discusses a Virginia referendum court challenge, the mysterious absence of a New Jersey Congressman, and the politics surrounding gas prices, along with NFL draft prospects.

(00:00:00) Virginia referendum challenged in court (00:04:22) NJ Congressman MIA (00:08:24) The politics of gas prices Craig Collins is in for Greg Corombus, and Craig and Jim start with the good news that a Virginia judge blocked the state from certifying the results of Tuesday's congressional map referendum, deeming the referendum and the bill that triggered it as unconstitutional. (Don’t get too excited, this is just the first step in a multi-step process.) Then Craig and Jim wonder about the long absence and unspecified health issues of New Jersey Republican congressman Tom Kean Jr., and tell the administration that when it comes to gas prices, it’s better to underpromise and overdeliver than the other way around. Finally, the two long-suffering fans of New York’s NFL teams contemplate the Giants' and Jets' prospects in tonight’s NFL draft.
