I live in Newark: a godless pallid yuppie who attended the same law school as Cory Booker. (Never met him.) Sharpe James' departure is mixed news. He has done a lot of good for Newark--admittedly on the commission system. Racist? I don't think so, although he wasn't above playing the race card on occasion. Then again, neither was Ed Koch. My main beef against James is that he has been in office a bit too long. Again, like Ed Koch. Cory Booker will have a big set of shoes to fill. Let's hope that he isn't the John Lindsey of the naughts. “Good news: Newark will no longer have a crooked, racist Mayor.”
