Hillary Clinton Hops the Hudson to a Huge Turnout in NJ

We don't know whether she took 'the bridge' or 'the tunnel,' but she arrived in Bergen County after taping interviews with Charlie Rose today.

Hillary was in Ridgewood, New Jersey for a signing at Bookends on East Ridgewood Avenue.  There was a time when this was Nixon country and Pat and Richard Nixon were familiar figures in this town, but today it was all about Hillary.  An enormous, enthusiastic crowd welcomed her with cheers and applause.

They came from far exits on the Garden State Parkway and the New Jersey Turnpike as well as from points west on 80 and 78.  They brought beach chairs and blankets to sit on giving the event a touch of  Jersey shore flavor.  (The actual Jersey shore – not the TV show).

I told her I am Still4Hill and have been blogging about her work since 2008. She said, "I know! I LOVE it!" I thanked her for everything she has done and continues to do, and she thanked me for what I do. I also thanked her for coming to NJ since I could not make it to Chappaqua.
