Why would Pennsylvania Govenor be for Jon Corzine? Cause of all the people leaving NJ, are moving to Pennsylvania... Why else would he support Corzine?

So not only is he helping a fellow democrat, along party lines, which as we have learned, hasn't helped anyone and only promotes the status quo, which is not what the people of New Jersey are looking for.

In the end, if Corzine is elected, we will see higher taxes, a bad recovery plan that will only put us in more debt(same plan Christie has come forward with), and higher tolls.

Daggett is the only one focused on immediately helping the residents of New Jersey, 25% property tax deduction, a drop to flat 8.97% income tax and 25% cut in business(small business and corporate) taxes. We all need this immediate cut, and only Daggett has come forward with this balanced budget. Yes there will be some tax expansion, but in the end, the New Jersey residence will benefit(average savings per person in New Jersey is over $2000 a year, when you do the math).

Daggett is the only viable option, while you see the Governor of Pennsylvania, Edward Rendell, ask him, why are you really here in New Jersey? Promoting your own state, and hoping more people move to Pennsylvania?
