One might be surprised. I have had died-in-the-wool Democrats tell me they were disappointed that they did not have Lonegan to vote for.
The reason: A lot of middle class liberals are seeing the results of electing Corzine up close and personal: long-time jobs lost, horrendous job market, taxes, fees, etc increasing, freebies for illegals who infest the state, hospitals closing, businesses closing, salary cuts...
Corzine has become truly hated, and the Republican party sabatoged their best chance - Lonegan.
If Lonegan concentrated on fiscal conservatism, I’m certain he could have won.
Plus I’m writing in Lonegan.
