"I think he could be more civil. This is not necessary. I wish him a lot of luck. I have seen enough to know that this is the toughest job in America. I would never, ever wish this job on my worst enemy." -- Joshua Zeitz, a spokesman for former Gov. Jon Corzine, on Gov. Chris Christie.

interesting
it looks like the assembly dem office staff has been busy today.
Conspicuously absent from the list is ...
... MICHAEL MARTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now that would be a campaign to remember.
Come on Wally, put Mikey in the mix and see how he does.
Run Lou, Run!!
The Empty Suit for Congress!!
Dana Redd.
Dana Redd......Congresswoman. Any other choice would be a slap in the (south) Democratic party's face.
Who are these people?
Do they live in NJ?
lots of choices
Is Greenwald even interested? Further, though it may be unfair, Greenwald isn't universally admired amongst district 1 Dems. I'm surmising, from a short interview published yesterday, that Burzichelli may be the top choice for the seat.
Though I find Martin Two's suggestion about me running to be a compliment, I have neither the name recognition nor money to run, though the thought has been entertained; further, the missus and Ph.D. come first.
Lest we forget, there is already a pro-impeachment, pro-marriage equality candidate on the Democratic slate: Dr. Ibn-Ziyad.
http://www.pdamerica.org/articles/campaigns/2008-01-11-12-10-53-campaigns.php
And, Wally, please forgive the grammar police here, but it's "Whom" do Democrats pick, not "Who."
Bill Castener...
for Congress cuz then maybe we can get James Gee for Assembly Majority Director and then maybe he can get P. Diddy to show at the State House and make the place cool.
I like Dana Redd choice
thereis grumbling that anything else is more of the same for the state Dems.....
Imwithstupid
That was a hilarious post
