WAYNE -- The race to replace Chris Christie as New Jersey's governor isn't sleepy any more.

That much was clear Wednesday night as Democratic nominee Phil Murphy and Republican nominee Kim Guadagno spent much of their second and final televised debate shooting verbal arrows at each other.

The event was held at William Paterson University in Wayne just 20 days before a Nov. 7 election that has often inspired little more than apathy among the state's voters. But if the rivals' first debate was contentious, this one was downright nasty.

In a high apathy political New Jersey Governor race the underdog Republican in this very Blue state can win by promoting high turnout of “Trumpers”. End of story!!!

Unfortunately, Christie and his “reach across the aisle” RINOism left the GOP for dead in this state. Meanwhile, dem darling Bob Menendez is on trial for corruption and their is nary a peep. Those who caused traffic on a bridge that already had traffic are in jail.

No matter who wins, New Jersey loses.

I really should develop an exit plan.

I have mine. I even have a date.

It is 9 years, 3 months and 18 days from now. But it is good to know there is light at the end of the tunnel.

No....but running as a Republican, Establishment, RINO, “Never Trumper” gets you nowhere but becoming a sure brain dead, loser. At least running as a Trumpster...you can keep your self-worth and dignity.

And...who really knows?...miracles do happen!!!
