Quote of the Day
“For a guy who’s got nothing but adoring press for seven years, and is unknown to 70 percent of the public, it’s not easy to win if you’re a single-issue candidate. Our feeling is, bring him on.” -- Democratic State Chairman Joseph Cryan, on Republican Chris Christie, who is resigning as U.S. Attorney to run for Governor.

It seems that there is no concensus
Not knowing too much about it other than the source, I am comfortable saying NO to anything Corzine has to offer. "You know the tree by its fruit." It is biblical.

Man Overboard!
Yes, I'd throw Jon Corzine a life ring. But where was he on this three years ago. Did he need for the BCDO to meltdown before he could act? Perhaps he could take a clear stand for "clean elections" if it even still exists.
Point is JC was supposed to be the progressive who hated the "faint of heart." Maybe he was lulled into a false sense of security by the fair lady.
