Despite some rumors that US Senator Frank Lautenberg (D) would retire next year -- when he will be 84 years old -- the buzz was apparently false. In a sign he intends to seek re-election, Lautenberg just posted new FEC numbers showing he has around $2 million cash-on-hand in his campaign account. The most likely GOP challengers are two second-tier hopefuls: State Assemblyman Michael Doherty and real estate developer Anne Evans Estabrooks.

Neither of them stands a chance, though Estabrooks is probably the better choice for the GOP. Doherty has been endorsed by the NRA and Right to Life, which means he stands no chance in New Jersey. I don't know anything about Estabrooks, but she's probably more moderate.

Is there a Republican left in NJ that can win a statewide race?

All other things being equal (level of animosity towards the GOP near its average rather than its current elevated? level etc)

Estabrooks is a moderate. She's even given donations to the State Dem Committee and Menendez before.

Top 3 are definetly Christie, Baroni, and Murphy who have all passed on the race.

This, on the other hand, is the epitome of a waste of time.

No. At least not one that can win a Republican primary.
