Richard Codey

If Nevadans don’t put John Edwards into first or second place in their presidential caucus on Saturday, Edwards may lose his New Jersey campaign chairman: Senate President Richard Codey – who spent fourteen months as Governor after James E. McGreevey resigned in 2004 -- says he’ll consider endorsing either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama before the February 5 New Jersey primary.  An independent poll released this week has Clinton with a twelve-point lead over Obama among likely Democratic primary voters; Edwards was at 9%.
