No big surprise.

I wonder if the Republicans will just dismiss this by saying "well, it's a blue state" or if they'll start thinking about fielding electable candidates instead of Tea Party fanatics?

It's a blue state with a Republican Governor.

This is not great news by any means. But just the lesser of two evils. It's sad that the republicans failed to put up a decent candidate.

That would be a good ticket, but I would prefer Elizabeth Warren and Alan Grayson in the mix.

Shocking - the Racist Democrats finally elected a democrat Senator. I wonder if Booker will vote with his party against school choice to make sure minority kids are forced to attend failing schools.

The racist democrats? The same ones that elected a conservative governor?

I don't think so. The VP job is usually a political dead end. Booker, I think, may have bigger ambitions, but 2016 may not be his year. Really a lot remains uncertain as yet, but one thing is for sure; the guy is as smart as Obama.
