also the speaker of the new jersey assembly, sheila oliver. high profile, very popular mayor of the state's largest city, newark mayor cory booker. that's the democratic field. as of today it's official, nobody else can get in. it's those four. frank pallone. rush holt, sheila oliver and cory booker. on the republican side this is interesting. you have the former mayor of bogoda, new jersey who is a serial campaigner tea party guy named steve lonegan. he ran in the governor's race twice and lost both times. his competition on the republican side a woman by the name of alita ecks. she's also a self-described tea party candidate. so if you want to know who is going to be the next senator from the great state of new jersey after this placeholder guy, we still don't know, but the republican field is not exactly a constellation of bright political stars. and the democratic primary ought to be a good fight. between four accomplished serious-minded democrats who are all pretty well regarded and who all have real jobs in politics. on paper on the demo

who is odds-on favorite against the democratic field that includes new jersey assembly speaker sheila oliver and congressman frank pallone. crowded field on the democratic site is probably a sign they see this as a winnable seat. after all, new jerseyans haven't elected a republican to the senate since 1972. on the republican side of the ledger, thereto is aleta eck, a doctor, whose main focus is government intrusion into medicaid and health care, and new jersey state senator michael dougherty decided not to run, instead is throwing his support behind this guy, steve lonegan, the former three-term mayor of bogota, new jersey, population 8,000. steve lonegan is a tea party conservative who plans to take washington by storm. >> i commit to defund, to overturn the repeal and get rid of obama care before it's too late and i'm going to put backbone into the republican party in washington, d.c., and make sure they do something. >> absolutely. >> steve lonegan was one of the stars you might say of a little documentary about the bogota mayoral race a few years ago. >> i'm in trouble now. i'm getting
