Murphy says he won't get in the race if Christie or Crowley do citing not wanting multiple Morris county people in the race.  Great news for Christie in the primary

And, at this point, it looks like both Crowley and Christie are in the race.

I suppose that, for Lieutenant Governor on the R side, we're looking at:

St. Sen. Bill Baroni
St. Sen. Jen Beck
County Clerk Lisa Donovan

...and possibly Murphy.

Do you mean Kathleen Donovan or is there another county clerk named Donovan with a lot of clout?

I agree with you on Murphy on Lt. Gov., possibly why he will choose against running.  With Christie stepping down today as US Atty, its all but a guarantee at this point

Er, yes, Kathy Donovan.

My personal preference is Cathy DiCostanzo, but she's quite a few years out of relevance now.  Smiley

Didn't Jersey have a Republican governor recently?  DiFrancesco or something.

Some "entertainer" that I never heard of is launching a write in campaign.

http://www.politickernj.com/max/28995/hurricane-floyd-entertainer-seeks-gubernatorial-campaign-people

Not sure who this would take away votes from. I'm guessing it would take away anti-Corzine votes from Christie.

I've actually heard of him, but I wouldn't expect anyone else to have.

I've said that for a while, but actually started changing my mind recently as Goldman stock has had a massive and significant (50-60%) rebound.

Chris Daggett, former Kean deputy chief of staff, running as an Independent.

I'm kinda worried that all of these independents running are going to take away the Anti-Corzine vote from Christie.

From his "issues" page:

"We keep losing middle-income families to Pennsylvania because our property taxes are too high, retirees to Florida and Wyoming because of high income and estate taxes, and young people because they cannot find jobs or afford homes."

Which one of these things doesn't belong?

Yeah, I just thought it was amusing. It's totally inane, of course.
