Among the winners: U.S. Sen. Bob Menendez, Jamie Fox and Tom Shea, who helped Barack Obama win Florida.
Also: Bergen County Democratic Chairman Joe Ferriero, whose indictment didn't seem to hurt anyone but Diane Testa; and former Newark Mayor Sharpe James, who was able to help an old ally win a City Council seat before he goes to prison.
Honorable mention for Loser: the late Thomas Ferrell, who served in Congress from 1883 to 1884, is no longer the last Democrat to hold Jim Saxton's seat. That record now belongs to John Adler.
