I would love to do some sort of analysis on this.clammychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680889340781216855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488503.post-63735722203089882602007-02-16T14:37:00.000-05:002007-02-16T14:37:00.000-05:00You know, clammy, I hear that a lot.

(And I think Arohnson's campaign did a pretty good job "out there", considering.) <BR/><BR/>But unless I'm missing something, Dem money and effort is way better spent in Bergen:<BR/><BR/>2006<BR/>Bergen total votes: 124,322<BR/>All others combined: 71,237<BR/><BR/>(from CNN.com. here's the Bergen numbers- http://151.198.187.55/countyclerk/2006%20General/2006_General.pdf)<BR/><BR/>I also have the feeling that money and effort in Bergen would have more of a chance of spreading westward than the other way around. Seems to me that just as much effort has to be spent on turnout in Bergen as on expanding the appeal of the Dem candidate in non-Bergen.<BR/><BR/>Does that make any sense?Sidd Finchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11799485338075986975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488503.post-52852659243640465942007-02-15T15:37:00.000-05:002007-02-15T15:37:00.000-05:00this is great to see, and long overdue.

At Big Orange, kos posted a listing of potential seats that should be targeted which were not targeted last time around. <BR/><BR/>NJ-5 was on the list as a 2nd or 3rd tier (of the B-list).<BR/><BR/>What we need to figure out is how to get LTEs and OpEds published that show Garrett's true colors. <BR/><BR/>Especially in counties not named Bergen.clammychttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00680889340781216855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30488503.post-50600450142369165342007-02-14T10:19:00.000-05:002007-02-14T10:19:00.000-05:00Beat me to it, Theresa!This line:That “collapse,” ...Beat me to it, Theresa!<BR/><BR/>This line:<BR/><BR/><I><B>That “collapse,” as the consultant put it, could lead to a primary challenge for Garrett, opening the door to an early-funded Democrat riding the strength of a county Democratic Party that has grown in influence.</B></I><BR/><BR/>really stuck out to me.
