Trenton Mayor Doug Palmer may be a lot of things. Subtle isn't one of them.
At an event Friday with Gov. Jon Corzine, Palmer, who political insiders see as a potential lieutenant governor nominee later this year, stepped to the podium and opened with this:
"I don't know why for the first time, being with the governor, I feel like I'm auditioning now," Palmer said, drawing laughs from most of the crowd and bugged-out eyes from the press corps.
No one who follows state politics would be surprised that Palmer is interested in the new slot as New Jersey's number two office holder, but no one else has yet been so forward about it. Maybe it'll just take some getting used to, since the lieutenant governor slot is a new position added to this year's ballot and no one is quite sure how the added wrinkle will play out, or just how forcefully the contenders will lobby to be picked.
Gov. Corzine and the winner of the Republican primary will choose a lieutenant governor to run with them after their party primaries. The Associated Press had a look at some of the contenders this past weekend.
