Rabner nominated for NJ Attorney General

He has long to be said the choice of Chief Justice, now Attorney General.

Gov. Jon Corzine today nominated his chief counsel, Stuart Rabner, to replace Attorney General Zulima Farber after her resignation takes effect Thursday.

The choice of Rabner, who jailed corrupt politicians and fought terrorism during his 19 years at the U.S. Attorney's Office, was widely expected and immediately praised by both Democrats and Republicans.
