Republican opponent, former U.S. Rep. Dick Zimmer, takes a Jersey-centric view of offshore drilling. Zimmer says he is open to environmentally safe drilling off the coasts. But, he says, "I would oppose drilling off the Jersey Shore or anywhere else that would pose a danger to the Jersey Shore."
IOW, drill.

If by this he means he is opposed to oil rigs within sight of the shore, or closer to the shore than the typical minimums used by offshore drilling States,then this is a reasonable statement by someone running for office.
