I’m surprised that Joe Pennacchio is running so strongly against Lautenberg. Does he have a high profile in New Jersey?

Judging from "Jersey Joe's" website, it looks like he's doing a good job appealing to the average Joe (pun intended) and getting working class NJ voters to empathize with him. The italian name probably helps too.

I always liked Murray Sabin's seasoned intellectual right-wing libertarian viewpoint but the only one that might have a pray in this election is Jersey Joe. As a big plus, Pennacchio has good elected experience and a solid conservative record. Anne Estabrook appears to be another empty-suit RINO that will be touted as an "electable moderate" by the powers that be, and end up with about 34% of the vote in the general if she's the nominee.

Unfortunately, this is New Jersey we're talking about. In any other state, Lautencorpse would have toast a long time ago. I'm from the Obama state, where the state GOP is a political punchline and the Dems have free reign to run rampant, but New Jersey is perhaps the only state in the union where the RAT machine could give the Chicago RATs a run for their money in sheer corruption and iron-fisted rule over a state. If the name "Tom Kean" can't win in the state anymore, even when the opponent is a completely corrupt, useless unlikeable appointed party hack, I fear no one can.
