Day 4
1:17 PM ET.

Over the course of this trip we’re going to drive on quite a few historical and beautiful roads. Route 1 in New Jersey, however, is not one these famous thoroughfares. Gas is quite cheap though and the van is happy.

We just finished up with NJ State Democratic Party Chair and Assemblyman, Joe Cryan. It was a bit different than what we’ve doing in the past few days, sitting in his office in the State Capitol building instead of out at a campaign event, but Joe is a great guy who put the boys immediately at ease. There were jokes flying all around. Admittedly, we’re getting a bit backed up on episodes, but we’ve got lots of work to do and should have a PA episode up tomorrow and NJ sometime this weekend.

I think I’ve figured out the details of sharing the internet while we’re in the car, but power seems to be an issue. A quick list of what we have to charge on a daily basis: 2 blackberries, a Treo, a MacBook, 2 Dells, 3 iPods, the portable audio recorder, 2 digital cameras, and a video camera. It’s tough being connected all the time.

Finally, we’ve had our first injury of the trip. Peter slammed my finger in the door. You can send him your criticisms at peter@doublespeakshow.com.
