why isn't the governor himself up there?
The only difference between death and taxes is that death doesn't get worse every time Congress meets. - Will Rogers
Administrative Feasibility
Welcome to New Jersey, where ballots can be changed even after the polls have opened (Thank you, Debbie Poritz!) Jon Corzine's name has been added.
What woes?
His approval numbers are up in both recent polls?
Carla?
Odd that she didn't make the list given all of the counsel she has provided via email
Promise everything--Deliver nothing.
Should be the motto for this Admin. Sounds like Corzine has really changed the way Trenton does business. Must be fun for all of these individuals on this list to spend their days apologizing to everyone for Governor Pinnochio's inability to tell people what they do not want to hear.
He is a real class act.
Moran is a clown.
Maggie Moran represents all that is wrong with state politics and the same small circle of jerks that believe they have all the answers. She could't win a local race in a three-district municipality if her life depended upon it and her political skills are overrated to say the least. If Corzine thinks he getting to the next level with the likes of Moran, think again. I can't think of more polarizing hack in state government today.
What's been achieved
Can somebody (even MartinOne) tell me what this administration has achieved. Also can anyone point to one thing that Corzine has done to change the way business is done in this state. My bet is that both answers come up with something that cost me. He hasn't done anything of note since he shut down the government.
Hey but at least he isn't McGreevey.
What's been achieved
i dunno... here are some of the bills he signed into law recently:

most look pretty useless if you ask me...
although maybe requiring the state to use fluorescent lights saves on the state energy bill...
The only difference between death and taxes is that death doesn't get worse every time Congress meets. - Will Rogers
Corzine's Record
Higher taxes, more debt, bigger government and illegal alien coddling which all results in lost private sector jobs.
yeah but...
GOP is pretty bad when it comes to more debt & bigger government too...
everyone in trenton needs to stop what they are doing and focus on some serious *&^& for once... quit it with TONS AND TONS of excess legislation... and feel good junk like that farmers market ban on homemade pie... or passing a state dirt...
i want a candidate who says... "I AM NOT GOING TO WRITE ANY BILLS... In fact, I am going to move that we repeal useless bills and streamline our government..."

Corzine's Record
He's your guy and I hope ALL OF NEW JERSEY CHOKES ON HIM..........
You deserve it.
