NJ-5 is a bellwether race.  The district is really too Republican.  The ad gets the point across, but New Jersey also has another very conservative Republican, Chris Smith, that isn't going anywhere.  A lot of New Jersey Republicans aren't that different from Alabama ones.

The game changer here is Wall Street's backing.  This race will tell us if there really is a rift in the Republican Party or if the party is going rightwards everywhere.

Garrett's a douche bag who is R+20 conservative in an R+3/4 district.

"Very conservative"?  He was one of the only Republicans who supported Lily Ledbetter.
