		Further complicating matters, recent public and private polls indicate that Florio may be less unpopular than he was a few years ago; indeed, he now runs almost even with Whitman, one-on-one.
		A combination of lots of money and strong political skills would be hard for Florio to overcome, but first- time candidates in big-time races have a track record of self- destruction--witness the failure of Republican Pete Dawkins in his race against Lautenberg in 1988.
		If voters are reminded of some of the more controversial elements of the Florio administration, or if Corzine gets tripped up on his business record or fails to demonstrate a grasp of public policy issues, the Democratic candidate could become the issue.

		TRENTON, New Jersey - Gov. James E. McGreevey outlined an ambitious environmental agenda as a candidate last year, vowing to curb sprawling development, set strict pollution limits, protect drinking water, improve air quality and increase enforcement of environmental laws.
		DEP Commissioner Bradley M. Campbell said the latter proposal, in some cases, would bar development of land miles away from reservoirs, if it could be proved that a feeder stream would be polluted by a development.
		Chris James, past president of the New Jersey Landscape Contractors Association, which has nearly 300 members with landscape, lawn care and irrigation businesses, criticized Campbell's response to the drought.
