Menendez tops Kean with ‘new direction’ – New Jersey

“Fueled by public sentiment against President Bush and the war in Iraq, U.S. Sen. Robert Menendez, D-N.J., was elected by a comfortable margin to his first full term Tuesday, winning a nasty campaign against the son of a popular former governor.

After state Sen. Thomas H. Kean Jr. conceded the race at 10:10 p.m., Menendez took the podium at the East Brunswick Hilton, praising a country in which the son of poor immigrant workers could become a United States senator. He repeated his pledge to stand up for New Jersey against Bush.”
