By Robert Coster Former flyweight title contender Ignacio "Nacho" Espinal of the Dominican Republic passed away last week at the age of 75. Espinal, whose
life. not only did he push back, he declared he would win outright. chris christie appointed new jersey s attorney general to fill the open senate seat after frank lawsu frank lawton bug s death. good afternoon, robert. good afternoon, martin. let me read a selection from your article, it s a quote from an unnamed new jersey gop consultant about christie. he burned us. he could have appointed a senator to stay through 2014. instead, he gave us a weird little primary during beach season. explain the fury that christie s decision has caused within the party, robert. it s a great question. chris christie had a decision to make after frank lautenberg passed away, pick when to hold the special election.
