The allies of Governor Phil Murphy look forward to a Thursday night huddle-up at Harrah’s with county party chairs, the governor and other assorted pooh-bahs, a scheduled audience ahead of the Democratic State Committee’s Conference that happens to clash somewhat awkwardly with another Thursday night happening.

Murphy and Democratic State Committee Chairman John Currie allies want to corral as many party leaders as possible in Atlantic City, even as Camden County Democrats welcome former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg to their fundraiser scheduled for the same night.

“Oh, God, I don’t know how to be in two places at once,” one source groaned, worried about appearances and the looming figures on either side of the party divide whom he/she might offend.

George Norcross III on one side.

Murphy on the other.

Some people were trying to figure out how to hit both events, irritably alert to the sense of being segmented into the Murphy-Currie and South Jersey wings of the party.

“I have to keep both these guys happy,” the split personality Democratic Party source moaned.

Another source – speaking about the evening in the same vein – said he/she planned to hit the chairs’ meeting at six, lurk for some of the cocktail hour at seven, then hightail it Camden for Bloomberg.

“Bloomberg been scheduled for a long time,” the source added, intent on keeping a leg in both camps, but a Murphy source described the Bloomberg event as strictly an “F-you to Phil.”

A North Jersey Democrat grunted under the strain of the divide, calling the Democratic State Committee’s desperately late-inflating event “a trainwreck.”
