Does anyone know the official count Menendez vs. Keane?
If it was truly the 8%, then, I have some concern. During the last few election cycles, the race always tightened, and then magically 10%+ win. I know that Keane had the name, but, should we worry?

1. Why should we worry? Keane lost. Menendez is in for 6 years.

2. The gap is closing and I would like to know why? And Frank
came back from retirement remember, Torricelli? I love the guy (FL), but I am not sure how long he'll want to serve. He is a fighter, but everyone wants some peace in this life.

5. Thank you, I have spoken to Frank and he is the real deal, in
so many ways. I sometimes worry that we expect so much from our heroes without regard to their personal desires. He got my vote, not even an issue! Once again, thank you for answering!

6. I like Frank a lot. He always seemed very genuine to me.
I'm glad to hear that he is. :-)

7. Problem is.....
He'll be 83 years old in January 2007. If he is re-elected in 2008, his new term would start a few weeks before his 85th birthday. Age may likely be an issue.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.....

3. Menendez 53% - Kean, Jr, 45%
Kean, Jr. had instant name recognition. Menendez wasn't really well known across the state and he had to deal with the corruption rumors. All things considered, it was a comfortable win. I wouldn't worry. :-)
