A whopping 44% of New Jersey voters say they’ve never heard of the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate; another 29% say that while they have heard of him, they have no opinion of him. In fact, according to the most recent poll from Fairleigh Dickinson University’s PublicMind, only one in four voters have an opinion of former congressman Dick Zimmer: 16% say they have a favorable opinion of him while 10% say their view is unfavorable.
“If three quarters of the public know nothing about the Republican nominee for the United States Senate, then he’s certainly got a long climb,” said Peter Woolley, a political scientist and director of the poll. Even among self-identified Republican voters, Zimmer is not known: A majority (62%) say they don’t have an opinion of him or have never heard of him at all. publicmind.fdu.edu/senate0806/If La'berg died on October 1, 2008 -- he would still win Jersey in a landslide. (BTW -- I certainly wish him no such bad luck) NJ -- as I have preached here for several years -- is as blue as blue can get on state-wide elections.

Maybe it's the NJ Republican party who never learnI can't disagree with that either.

I know I'm a mental mutant and an idealist. But all I care about is who I think would be the most suitable man/woman for the job.
I'm Lisas84 and I approved this message. (dont' even get me ranting about how moronically unnecessary those statements are!)
