Everyone is focusing on the McGreevey situation with respect to the scandal of McGreevey’s ethics, his pandering to his own confused sexuality as victimhood and the possibility of his being indicted for graft.

But I’m not hearing much commentary on the essential anti-democratic nature of his actions. By delaying the effectiveness of his resignation he is intentionally denying the citizens of New Jersey a say in who their governor will be.

That’s an astonishingly arrogant anti-democracy act.
