I’m pessimisticly optimistic and a realist. If Jack wins, nobody will be happier than me. ---

This is interesting. We might have a horse race. Poll numbers through end of September, haven’t got any for October yet. Looks like it’s tightening. If you scroll up and look at the 2021 numbers, Murphy was up by more in Oct. 2021 Wonder what the latest commercials and the past debate performance will do to Oct. numbers. Also, there’s another debate this Wednesday, the 8th. Are you watching? ![nj poll](https://njgunforums.net/uploads/default/original/2X/7/79aceeed77a51ef81a2541639bdf7755160df4f4.jpeg) ---

It’s going to be undeclared voters they need to win over. Chattereli must somehow convince and promise that he will not be and will not act like Chris Christie. How he can do that I don’t know ---

> [@Revenger](#): > > Chattereli must somehow convince and promise that he will not be and will not act like Chris Christie. How he can do that I don’t know That’s a tough one. We had RINO Christie… and we might get RINO Jack. But that’s the best NJ can dredge up. ---

I don’t think a true republican would stand a chance, it would not be allowed. If a RINO is the best, I’ll take Jack and hope for the best. ---

All of politics is abhorrent, but it is the only system we have.

As heard on Newsmax tonight at the tail end of Rob Schmidt’s show, Mikie was on a podcast and was asked “Taylor Ham or Pork Roll?” The cheating inside trader said “Taylor Ham. Pork Roll is gross.” What an ignorant slut! ---

> [@scorpio64](#): > > About choices… The least worst choice is still the best choice. It’s sad that many people consider this acceptable, just vote for “least worst”. I, for one, am really tired of these type of choices, and hate having to throw away my vote on this type of choice. No one should consider this acceptable. > [@scorpio64](#): > > Anyone who does not vote has no right to complain. So, since we’re forced to vote for crap, means we get the right to complain about that crap? Think about that for a second… 🤔 Such a wonderful choice. ---

Yes, she had a better debate than last time. I think they were even if I’m being honest. I wish she had stumbled more and he owned her. Edge Jack, he made great points, she was just better than last debate.
