D-Day , no turning back.
Today is D-Day today for Plainfield Mayor Sharon Robinson-Briggs and Assemblyman Jerry Green on the rescue of Muhlenberg Hospital.
In two meetings today -- one including Commissioner Heather Howard, one not -- the Plainfield duo must convince the state to keep Muhlenberg's license active, and the potential buyer to stay in the game.
The prospective buyer has said that not to have an active license in place would be a 'deal-breaker'.
The D-Day metaphor is quite appropriate: The Plainfield duo will have to make their way successfully across an 'Omaha Beach' under heavy artillery barrage and strafing mounted by Solaris to kill the Muhlenberg license.
Assemblyman Green and Solaris have worked hand-in-glove for many years in a mutually beneficial relationship, as both parties have often remarked.
Will the Assemblyman, to save Muhlenberg, today finally have to 'bite the hand that has fed him'?
Will the Mayor be a player or just a hand-puppet for the Assemblyman?
Will the mystery three Council members be active participants?
Will the deal move forward?
Or die?
Stay tuned.

Don't we wish we could be ex-officio at the meeting.
