The only way that I'm interpreting Wally's cryptic statement is: Rothman, Pascrell or Pallone are considering entering the primary.
Hmmmm
More drama, huh?
Is it that Andy Unanue is back in New Jersey after his little ski trip?
Please,
don't say that Jersey Joe and Andy Unanue dropped out of the U.S. Senate race, thereby making Murray Sabrin the nominee. Because that would be one scary joke.
One can only hope that JJ and SkiBoy Give it a rest...
After all its a day for fools, a.k.a the rusted hulk of the NJGOP establishment, to be sad.
Rob Andrews is more of a conservative leader than Andy Unaniwaste would ever be.

Dem Primary Challange?
The Torch is in?!?!?!?
Sorry, you've done this before
On the off chance that something really will happen, this website has run phony news items on April 1st in previous years....so, like a Corzine tax cut, it's not believable even if you mean it
