Lonegan's many signs on Route 40 had to help him in the county.

Mr. Moderate. My understanding is that Doherty is a pretty extreme conservative. I realize that district 23 is pretty Republican, but will he have trouble in the general?

Nope, zero trouble. Whoever won the primary, would win the general.

Not impressed by Corzine's primary performance.
  Whomever the NJ machine supports, wins, as always.  Tongue

Three Democrats briefed on Corzine's lieutenant governor deliberations said he's currently focused on Weinberg because she would help the ticket in Bergen County, which could go Republican, and would be a strong counter-match to Bergen County Clerk Kathleen Donovan, who is on Christie's short list.

Also under consideration for Corzine are DiVincenzo, U.S. Rep. Albio Sires (D-13th Dist.) and state Sens. Barbara Buono (D-Middlesex) and Shirley Turner (D-Mercer). Corzine said Wednesday that former treasurer and confidante Richard Leone is heading up a committee to examine the candidates.

Along with Donovan, Christie is considering U.S. Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R-2nd Dist.), state Sen. Diane Allen (R-Burlington), Assemblyman Jay Webber (R-Morris), Sen. Joe Kyrillos (R-Monmouth) and former congressman Mike Ferguson.

I was thinking the same thing. Plus, it makes no sense, it would leave a wide open pickup opportunity for the Dems with an open seat. I don't think LoBiondo wants the job anyway. Most likely it will be Diane Allen from what I hear.

Christie should try to pick a candidate that will help in a swing area.

Swing areas are irrelevant in a state-wide race.  It's not like counties have electoral votes.  Christie needs straight votes.  He needs to pick someone with wide appeal from an urban area.

Yeah, but my point is, there's no point picking someone from Ocean County, or from Northwest Jersey because he won't win any additional votes there.

New Jersey, as always, is fools gold for Republicans, no matter what polls may say.

Yeah, disregard the 13 straight polls with Christie up!

Yeah, disregard that Corzine's approval is going down, not up.

Phil, look at the margins. It's common sense, you are smarter than that. Christie grew 5 points from the last poll, while Corzine grew 2. Not sure what point you are trying to make, but you failed miserably.

So Phil, every undecided should be breaking towards Christie? I really don't understand what you are saying. Of course Corzine's numbers are going to go up from the mid 30's. But based off the last poll they are breaking at a 5-2 margin to Christie. We get it, you're skeptical. But facts work better than conjecture.

Well, based on simple arithmetic, he actually doesn't need any more undecided voters.

...

And based on basic...oh...common sense...some of us realize Christie doesn't have 50% of voters definitely supporting him. Why the hell can't you understand this?

Okay, then Corzine doesn't have 40% definitely supporting him. Whats your point?

I don't understand how enthusiasm would play a factor. Maybe in an unweighted poll it would, but in a weighted poll the effect would be lessened, no?
