Running Against Jon Corzine: What Republican has a better chance of beating him? (Union: appointed, move to)

i would stick hot pokers in my eyes before i vote for lonegan.

sincerely, a (high) tax paying NJ'er.

It appears as if Christie maintains his nine point lead over Corzine according to the latest FDU poll:

Poll finds GOP's Chris Christie retains lead vs. Gov. Jon Corzine - NJ.com

I think Lonegan and Corzine are running neck and neck in the poll, but I don't see Lonegan winning the primary at this stage.

when McGreevey resigned, there was much talk about NJ adding a Lt. Governor -- anyone know whatever happened with that ?

Yeah, another way to blow 20-30 million of our tax dollars.

they were saying that the total cost (salary, office, staff, etc.) would be no more than $1M

I have no clue who I'll vote for this time around.

Good for you! Just look at each candidate running against Corzine.

Both Republican candidates are much better than Corzine.

Personally, I like Steve Lonegan.

I'd even consider (I said consider) Cristie.

I hope to vote for Christie. He'll be tough on corruption around the state. The corruption in our state must cost the taxpayers millions. However, I'd vote for Lonegan if he wins the primary. Corzine must go into retirement.
