To the NJ contingent: who's best able to win the Senate seat?

Pallone and Holt are in; Booker likely to announce this weekend. Which is best able to win a statewide race?

nb - Yes, this is a State that President Obama and other Democratic candidates have won; it's also a state that elected Chris Christie, and going to re-elect him handily in November. So, setting aside ideology, which one has the strongest shot?

the other two might lose to Steve Lonegan who is ultra rich ultra conservative and friends with the Koch brothers.

100% for cory Booker

He was my congressman until redistricting and I'm on a first name basis with him, so naturally he's my candidate.

As of right now, he also has the most $$$.
