Booker wouldn't have gotten his "ticket punched" if he didn't endorse the nutty irishman

Don't trust any of them. Remember Christie Whitman.

I remember when Chistie Whitman promised to tackle the insurance industry and outrageous car insurance premiums charged here in NJ. She talked a good game, but did nothing.

POLITICIANS in NJ are symbols of corruption, party doesn't matter. Let's see Whitman and 9/11, for example.... EPA??? Please. NJ politicians, in general, are crooks.

Look let's face reality, the states that are in favor with the ruler of DC always benefit...always do. So I don't know if NOW would be the time to become a GOP state. Another issue, if we were to have a viable GOP candidate, it would have to be someone who is more of a Liberterian, fiscally conservative, but not telling people what their morality should be. Someone like Michael Bloomberg comes to mind. But I wouldn't hold your breath. We don't know who will be running yet and forgive me if I don't think we'll have any really impressive candidates.

Congressman Rob Andrews from south Jersey is a stand-up guy who'd be a great choice for Gov.
