None during a Presidential year
Not even if DeSantis holds Biden to 10 points in NJ and makes inroads in Bergen/Passaic/South Jersey?
Don't forget in certain states voters expect their elected representatives to be crooks and are fine with it.
Torricelli was ethically smart to retire, Doug Forrester was beating him all summer 2002.....Menendez is too egotistical to step down, Torricelli had more class.
It had nothing to do with class. Bob Torricelli was not a lawyer by trade. He was not independently wealthy. He would have to earn a living once he was out of office, and the Democrats had that to hold over his head. If he played ball and withdrew, he would have friends in high places to help him there. A nice high six figure a year job at a PR firm in NJ. Some nice corporate boards for him to sit on. If he stayed in and dragged the whole Democratic ticket down with him, then he was SOL.
