Bob Hugin is running against Bob Menendez for Senate.

I know, I know. Primaries yet to come.

But both candidates have the blessings of their respective party machines.

Hugin thinks that he can win by claiming to be independent of Trump. Won't happen. Trump told him to run according to my friend who goes to church with Hugin. Please Hugin's too close to Chris Christie, who isn't that popular.

Plus, with the expected turn-out for the Midterms, likely more Democrats will be voting which doesn't bode well for Hugin.

All he has is he's "disgusted" by the corruption (which hasn't been successfully prosecuted) of Menendez.

I'm not even going to wish Hugin well sarcastically.

He's pissing in the wind. Even in the severely gerrymandered 7th we have a strong mean this year. This election starts from the borough level and drives right up to a place where we can impeach 45.
