Worried about the manifesto's effect on Saxton, Ferguson seats, GOP leaders seeking a threesome in Senate primary

I know he didn't do to well in races before, but he wasn't involved in ethics scandals, he can self-finance, is moderate/centrist when it comes to social issues, and is a fiscal conservative.  With the economy slowing down, Forbes' cred on that issue could easily beat Lautenberg. 

Chris Smith would be a great candidate; he'd get a heavy portion of the veteran vote in the state.  I don't think  the pro-life issue would hurt him in a state wide race - he doesn't come from the most conservative district right now.  If he can win in the 4th, he can win the state. 

GOP will ever get behind Murray Sabrin.

And I know someone will respond by saying that this is why the NJGOP will lose in November. But you know what, what has Murray Sabrin done to help the NJGOP in the past. Where was Murray Sabrin when Tom Kean ran, or when Dough Forrester ran. All that Murray has accomplished is running one of the most divisive campaigns in recent history, where he has issued more press releases critical of Republicans than of Democrats. 

Its going to be a lonely road for Murray Sabrin. 

Should anyone be surprised? I don't know what's worse the comments, the length, the use of the ridiculous "penn" name.  Joe Penn's attempt to keep alive by pulling a Romney and say that was then and this is now is weak especially since he appears to have pour his heart and soul into this.

Either Joe or Murray are a "D" dream. 

The people really hurt by this are all those greying dem congressmen who want to switch to the other side of the capitol.  Frank's a cinch for another term.  Only question is can he complete it?

It is time to concentrate on the present and the future. Forget the past. Learn from your mistakes in the past. Forrester, Kean, and others had their shot and could not do it. Let's forget about it and concentrate on the task before hand. That is elect a candidate who actually said that he wants to be a GOP candidate. Dr. Sabrin is it. 

criticize the down ticket candidates who don't agree with him on every single issue? Will he campaign with candidates who are not pro-life? Will he call on them to withdraw?

A Republican needs to seriously step up and run. We need a third option.

I will start a write-in campaign for someone if nobody steps up, this is ridiculous; there has to be someone.

I know this guy in Hoboken. He seems to be good. I also know this woman in Camden. She seems to be nice. I also know a couple of guys from Trenton, but I would not ask them to run.

It would be very wise at this point for the Republicans to get behind Murray.

 Anything short of this, would continue to widen the gap between RINO's and Real Conservatives, and only continue the 7 year losing streak to the Democrats.

 Murray obviously has the courage to do whats right not only for our party, but also for our state, and the nation as a whole. If the party even thinks of trying to find another "last minute candidate" it only reinforces the Democrats claim that we are hypocrites and our party is more concerned about personal egos and power, than they are about principles. 

 I know half of the Republicans in New Jersey don't want change, and enjoy the status quo, but the reality is the climate of the party nationally is starting to change. The "Good Ole Boys" of politics within the Republican Party in NJ are going to have to realize that the game is over and its time to pass on the torch to some new blood.

 Ignorance, Stupidity, and Stubborness are surefire ways to guarantee the success of the Democrats come November. And trust me, the Dems will walk all over us in many races if we don't stop playing these petty little games of sharades, as the few political liberal elites within the party scramble to grasp onto whatever little bit of power they have left.

 Get behind Murray, and we can win. Anything short of that, and we will lose horribly.  

Why should I get behind Murray?

I agree with him on a lot issues to some degree, but there are some issues (e.g., the war) that I disagree with him on. Is Murray Sabrin going to kick me out of the Republican party? Because it seems like he would and I think Murray Sabrin's behavior during the campaign has turned off a lot of Republicans.

Tell me, what did Murray Sabrin gain by criticizing John McCain last week. Oh, he may have some scored some cheap points among conservatives in the primary, but lets think long term. The NJGOP Senate nominee will need the backing of the national party, and Murray will be unlikely to get it, if he continues to side with the Democrats, and Frank Lautenberg, on more of the issues than he does with John McCain and the Republican Party.

Nice play on words Wally, I didn't catch it at first..ha.

so we should all bow down to the NATIONAL PARTY? what the one thats ignored New Jersey for the better part of a generation? The one that threw away power with reckless spending and unnecessary war? The same one that wont dump Larry Craig after his nauseating exploits?

I dont bow to them, I don't bow to the state party what there is of it. All I bow to are conservative principles and common sense. Murray's got it, clearly Brown Armband Joe does not, and no fear of repudiation from failed national leadership will hold me from my beliefs. 

Why not somebody who knows what balls are?  Dick la Rosa. LOL

What happened to all of the chatter about recruiting Rudy G.?  Just sort of faded away....  ;-)

As usual, Martian makes no sense.  Contacting Allen is a slap in the face to the candidates in the 3rd?  That may be the dumbest thing I have heard on this board.  Oh, other than your crystal ball prediction that Dennison had one of the best run campaigns in the state - or that Bodine was going to win.  Those were pretty dumb.  Say hi to the Mad Hatter for me Alice.

No Martian - I need you to speak the truth - for once.  Again, I predicted the Ferguson race was going to be much closer than the 9-12 pts I predicted 6 months before the election.  So if you are going to quote me, quote it all.  Now, which GOP officials asked Diane to run?  I know most of the county officials, and few wanted her as the nominee.  Myers is far from second tier Alice.  He raised nearly 300k in the first three months of this year - it took Adler 5 YEARS as a failed Senate candidate to accomplish that goal.  So forgive me for filing your opinions in the toilet where they belong.  And as Tom Petty told you Alice - "Don't come around here no more."  Sorry it is not Timbuk3 but seeing no one with any clue has heard of them, it wouldn't have made any sense.  Say hi to the tea pot for me.
