That all might be true - I would like to believe that a strong conservative can win New Jersey - but how does Schundler's landslide loss faction in. Schundler was a staunch conservative. Just saying he didn't get Rino support is a cop-out. I don't know the answers. It's just a problem that smarter people than I haven't been able to figure out.

It's not a cop out, it is a fact. The republican establishment in NJ campaigned for Democrat McGreevey for revenge of not having their chosen one, DiFrancesco, run unopposed.

You actually had sitting Senators mailing out literature to their constituents telling them to vote the Bergen county line only and not vote for governor.

Schundler waffled on many conservative issues instead of just defending them. Like guns.
