U.S. Senator Bob Menendez of New Jersey Might Run for Re-Election as an Independent — 8 Comments

  1. Menendez would not get the favored line in the Democratic primary, where he would face the governor’s wife.

  2. Jim, I wouldn’t be for assuming Tammy Murphy gets the Democratic favored line (if that even stays in place after NJ Supremes finish with the case Richard mentioned here recently). Andy Kim may be the top dog.

  3. @JM,

    In the counties where the boss chooses the candidate to endorse, he chose Tammy Murphy. In the counties where there is a secret ballot by members of a county committee, they chose Andy Kim.

  4. Four comments since yesterday and no sign of the crAZ bot. Ding dong, Thomas W. Jones is dead.

  5. If Menendez does run as an independent, that could very well split the commie vote and hopefully get a Republican who will help Trump save America in.
