  • Romney minimizes exposure to Chris Myers
    This may be the saddest announcement I've ever seen.  Why?

    Romney is also holding a fundraiser for 7th District Congressional candidate Leonard Lance tomorrow.

    Apparently, Mitt Romney is in Medford to get the heck out of town as soon as possible.  Maybe he's still upset that Myers didn't endorse him for President...

    Anyway, this gives us the opportunity to see two economic gurus in the flesh.  After all, Chris Myers claims that, as an employee of a defense contractor, he is responsible for creating jobs.  Mitt Romney has good teeth.  

    Will Mitt agree with Chris that the economy is "still basically strong"?  Well, considering that Mitt just used $10,000 for his portrait, maybe he isn't the one to tell us that he can feel our pain.  Especially since he used money from his campaign to pay for it - money that he told people he'd use to run for office.

    But then again, John McCain spent over $100 grand for household help (in however many houses he has now).  So maybe the economy is still good in that rarified air.  For the rest of us - not so much.



  • Lautenberg launches cable ad
    The campaign says this is their first ad of the general election.  It started airing this past Saturday, October 11 on cable systems statewide.  Let us know what you think in the thread:




  • SUSA New Jersey Poll: Obama 55, McCain 40
    The survey of 551 likely New Jersey voters finds Barack Obama 15 points ahead of John McCain.  Only 2% are undecided.  SUSA observes:

    Obama takes a majority of the vote among most groups: men and women, young and old, well-educated and less-educated, rich and poor. Obama leads by 22 points in North Jersey, by 10 points in Central Jersey, and by 9 points in South Jersey. 16% of Republicans cross-over to vote for Obama; 11% of Democrats cross over to vote for McCain. Independents split.



  • Adler Outraises Myers
    Looks like John Adler seriously outraised Myers after having a big cash on hand lead back in July.

    Adler raised $550,000 and Myers just $369,000.

    As PNJ points out, the $369K for Myers doesn't include money George Bush raised for him, but the $550 for Adler doesn't include the hundreds of thousands the DCCC is spending for him.



  • Deep Thoughts: Leonard? Are You There?
    In prep for September October 15, Linda Stender released her fundraising number for 3Q: $681K.

    So where is Leonard Lance, and how bad are his numbers?
