If he’s seriously considering Randal Pinkett (the guy from Season Four of The Apprentice, apparently) for his running mate, he might as well get a camera crew together and film Who Wants to be a Losing Candidate for Lt. Governor ? There’s money in Reality TV, as I understand. I also understand that he kind of needs money right now.
More from Politicker NJ, including this:
So far, there is only one certainty in the race to become Corzine’s running mate: the LG selection process - including an uncomfortable public search for an African American candidate — has become a bit too comical for the comfort of Corzine supporters. Democrats are giving the impression of desperation; even East Orange Mayor Robert Bowser received a call asking if LG was something he would consider. He said no. At this point, new names are being treated with some trepidation. A trial balloon for former Superior Court Judge Theodore Davis, the state appointed Chief Operating Officer of the City of Camden and a Republican, was viewed as too late to be serious. Talk of Seton Hall Law Professor Mark Alexander, who ran Obama’s New Jersey campaign in the primary, had a shelf life of just a few minutes.
…and the Daily Record is reporting that insiders aren’t really happy about any of this. Meanwhile, you can donate to Chris Christie - the guy taking this race seriously - here.
