With all this talk of New Jersey supposedly trending Republican, why don't the Republicans have a chance in hell of winning any office?

Well to say that they don't have a chance at winning is unfair.
2000 - Bob Franks lost to Corzine by about 3 points. That's not much.

  2002 - Forrester was about to become the next U.S. Senator before the NJ Dems withdrew their candidate.

2006 - If Corzine becomes Governor, his Senate seat opens up. Republicans can take it, though it will be difficult (wouldn't say their chances are zero, though).

2005 Gubernatorial race - If Corzine doesn't run (looks like he will but anything can happen in NJ) I think the GOP candidate not only has a chance but will win the office.

Lol ok...I just got the feeling from this thread, even from you, that the Republicans have little if any chance.

What are you talking about? Can you argue any of your points? I just gave you a list of likely situations were the GOP can pick up Senate seats/Governor's office. My point here is that saying the GOP has no chance at all is wrong.

Umm, I never claimed to be an expert on NJ politics. I came to this thread as an outsider and got the overwhelming feeling, even from you, that the Republicans dont have much of a chance of picking up any of these seats. Stop being so pompous.

How am I being pompous? How am I displaying this feeling that the GOP can't win statewide when I gave you scenarios which they can?

Because you're taking what I say out of context and trying to start something. How old are you? You're like a fifth grader know-it-all.

Anyway, you suggested twice on the first page of this thread that Corzine would likely take the governor's office.

Taking what you said out of context? You gave your opinion and I gave an opposing opinion. How is that being pompous?

As for the Corzine candidacy (possible candidacy I should say) I did state that I believe it is likely that he will win. However, does that mean I believe the Republican doesn't have a shot or that the GOP doesn't have a chance in future races? No, I don't. You are taking what I'm saying out of context.

My comments weren't just about you. And you are taking what I said wayyyy too literally. Of course the Republicans have a chance, just not a good one. I will admit the Repubicans probably have a better chance against Rendell then Corzine
