TRENTON — When Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton returns to New Jersey Wednesday, her campaign will get a bump from Garden State rocker Jon Bon Jovi.

The New Jersey native is scheduled to speak to the crowd when Clinton campaigns at the Golden Dome Athletic Center at Rutgers University in Newark.

It's the first time Bon Jovi, who was raised in Sayreville, will appear at a campaign rally with Clinton in his home state.

Bon Jovi will headline a Boston fundraiser for Clinton later the same day.

[Maru Kitteh]

48. It's SO UNFAIR.

And I heard Bon Jovi is a SUPER-DUPER delegate. CHEATING!

[firebrand80]

4. She cancelled some NJ events this week

to stay in CA.

Since Bernie is not really competing in NJ, it makes sense.

10. Thank you. That is kind.

Be back later as my limo is waiting downstairs to take me to the sweat shop I run. I won't actually go in I just like to start each day yelling at them through the front door.

[CorkySt.Clair]

46. Limo liberal was a Limbaugh term from back in the day

Sorta makes you wonder what previously held beliefs some folks have "evolved" from.

[Maru Kitteh]

49. right? Good catch. n/t

[QC]

58. "Free stuff" is likewise a wingnut golden oldie,

but that hasn't stopped you from glomming onto it.

25. Thats good. So why does he support Ms Leading then?

Bill made federal student loans non dischargeable then she did the same for private student loans, then Did she lie about having had student loans herself?

Perhaps you should learn something about the people you throw under the bus.

[OilemFirchen]

33. ...

Susan Sarandon Net Worth: $50 Million

[OilemFirchen]

35. ...

Tim Robbins net worth: $60 Million

[wendylaroux]

39. you just made my point.Robbins would not care

if Bernie raised his taxes for the needy.you don't think these Richie Riches know

who would raise their taxes and who wouldn't? ffs.

[OilemFirchen]

43. That was your point?

Could've fooled everybody.

For archival sake, here's how you presented said point, in its entirety:

ah yeah!! love these limo liberals,don't touch my money kind.

hills has all of those on her team.

[NCTraveler]

47. That was your point?

[Yurovsky]

11. He appeals to Hillary's younger supporters...

and infuses her campaign with that fresh, hip vibe that you can only get from an '80s rock star.

I heard Winger will introduce her at the convention...

[NCTraveler]

12. Bring on Winger.

So what angle do you take with Katy Perry endorsing and supporting her?

Do you feel the least bit bad for going ageist and limiting your view of reality at the same time?

Hint: Clinton is going after all age groups. Not sure why that bothers you.

[Yurovsky]

13. Katy Perry sucks too...

Horrific taste in music crosses all age groups best I can tell...

"Ageist"... That's a knee-slapper...sorry not sorry if I violated your safe space...

[NCTraveler]

14. That's it. She sucks!!!!!

She doesn't excite the youth either!!!

I have no clue what you are talking about "safe space".

Bon Jovi. Yeah, he will really excite the youth. Perry. You suck.

Nothing but negativity.

[Yurovsky]

15. Bernie overwhelmingly has captured the youth vote...

HRC polls poorly among young voters because she represents the very interests that are crippling the efforts of young people to make their way in the world. She is a throwback to the '90s, when many of Bernie's supporters either weren't born or were small children. Telling these voters that economic justice and progressive legislation that would result in a more egalitarian society is "naive" or not realistic isn't going to inspire youth to rally behind her.

She got some rich celebrities with limited musical talent to endorse her. Yippee! I'm sure some grad student with $100k in student loans is very impressed... not...

Young people aren't stupid, they're just young. And they can see that Hillary represents powerful Wall Street and corporate interests that don't give a rat's ass about young Americans. The "I've got mine, screw you" wing of the Democratic Party is a tough sell for those young people not enjoying life among the 1%.

[NCTraveler]

16. "She got some rich celebrities with limited musical talent to endorse her."

And an overwhelming majority of the Democratic Party. Don't forget them.

"Young people aren't stupid"

Didn't say they were. Not sure why you placed that here.

"The "I've got mine, screw you" wing of the Democratic Party is a tough sell for those young people not enjoying life among the 1%."

Yeah, I'm kicking it with the one percent. This line of argument you are going with is simply laughable.

Perry sucks!!!!!

Bon Jovi can't excite the youth!!!!

You are all one percenters!!!!!

The youth knows what you don't!!!!

I'm glad I don't have to go with these arguments.

[Yurovsky]

18. Glad I don't have to defend...

my candidate under investigation by the FBI.

She's greedy and apparently broke the law to nourish that greed. How inspiring...

Say what you want about Bernie, but unlike HRC he didn't go into politics to get rich. Hillary did, and has. Now she may have to pay for the legal shortcuts she took. That's called karma. Enjoy...

[NCTraveler]

20. More negativity. It is a state of being for some.

If you haven't noticed, I am enjoying. That being said, I want you to join me in the fight for things, not simply against them as you are doing now. It is a better approach though it does require more thought. We can create a more just future together.

[Yurovsky]

37. you may well have the right vision, but the wrong candidate...

If Hillary had taken another route to,finance her campaign & lifestyle it would be much easier to get behind her. I certainly will be voting D down ticket, and who knows, if HRC is elected she may surprise me. That would earn my vote in 2020. But as of now I just don't trust her to fight on behalf of people outside of the corridors power. I am convinced she will resort to defending the interests of Wall Street, Walmart, Exxon-Mobil, and General Dynamics.

A greater fear I have is that the youth of our country will become disengaged from the process and allow the status quo to be maintained. And where is the next generation of political leaders on the Left? I was discouraged to see far more youthful faces on the GOP debate stage than on the Democrats (Gov. O'Malley being the lone exception). I think the beatings we've taken down ticket (and yes, I blame DWS for much of that) has hurt our bench strength for coming national elections. The demographics favor our policies moving forward, but I want to see more leaders emerging from state houses and Congress that will take the Party into the 2020s and beyond.

[riversedge]

24. Hope you are not including Elton John in your demeaning post.

[frylock]

41. The same Elton John who performed at Rush Limbaugh's wedding?

Very talented man.

[bettyellen]

45. He gets huge money and donates it all to charity- the horror!

I'm sure someone will come along and disparage the Charities he is involved with now....

[frylock]

50. Rush fucking Limbaugh.

You know, the fuckface that Hillary Supporter likes to compare Sanders supporters to when they post factual news items that aren't flattering to Her Royal Highness.

[bettyellen]

54. What does Elton Johns choices have to do with credible news sourcing here? nothing at all.

But keep on with your bad ass CT theories.
Lol.

[NCTraveler]

57. Your comments are so all over the place that they deserve and +1. Well done. nt.

Rush fucking Limbaugh.
You know, the fuckface that Hillary Supporter likes to compare Sanders supporters to when they post factual news items that aren't flattering to Her Royal Highness.

That is beautiful.

[workinclasszero]

26. Too bad those youths didn't show up and actually vote for Bernie

[Yurovsky]

34. I know I know young people don't vote...

But older voters do. Congratulations...

[workinclasszero]

36. Its a historical fact

Not just this election, its been that way for decades.

Way more 18 to 29 year olds turned out and voted for President Obama than Bernie the savior of the young as a matter of fact.

Bernies youth revolution deserted him way back in the Nevada caucus and sealed his fate.

It is what it is.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

22. "...sorry not sorry if I violated your safe space..."

Tough guy!

[Yurovsky]

32. Huh?

That made absolutely no sense. Congratulations...

[PeaceNikki]

42. Katy Perry is the only artist to top the 5 million mark with six songs

You don't like her? cool. But millions of people do.

[Yurovsky]

44. millions of people eat McDonald's every day...

that doesn't make it fine dining...

Free country. Listen to whatever you want. Preferably with ear buds...

[bigtree]

17. k&r

[riversedge]

23. Clinton is ahead of Sanders in New Jersey by an average of 17 points, 55% to 38% acco

...Clinton is ahead of Sanders in New Jersey by an average of 17 points, 55 percent to 38 percent, according to Real Clear Politics. Before becoming secretary of state, Clinton represented the neighboring state of New York for eight years in the U.S. Senate.

[workinclasszero]

27. Hillary will clinch the nomination in NJ!!!

[lunamagica]

28. AWESOME!

[tonyt53]

29. A guy that is still married to his sweetheart. Always admired him for that.

[auntpurl]

31. Love Bon Jovi!

He is a genuinely nice guy. I know people who know him and he's always been down to earth and good to people. Glad to hear he's supporting Hillary!

[Nye Bevan]

38. Must be getting really, really cramped under that bus.

But at least there's some good musical entertainment down there.

[frylock]

40. Livin' on a prayer.

[Agschmid]

51. I'm heading to the Boston one tonight!

[Iliyah]

53. Hey on, do report!

[Agschmid]

55. Meh, no report or pictures from me.

I'm just going to enjoy it and hear a great speech.

[Iliyah]

56. Ok, enjoy!

[Warren DeMontague]

59. I'll take Stipe, thanks.

We were probably listening to different music 30 years ago, you and I.

[Demsrule86]

60. I love Bon Jovi!

Jersey will put Hillary over the top!

[Peacetrain]

61. Ahhh I love bon jovi..
