Here's hoping Corzine and N.J. get its house in order so no more of you move south.

How many times and in how many ways are they going to present bad polls for Corzine? Ok we get it, he's toast!!! Jesus!! Who cares about Jersey anyway?

Let's put this in perspective... In NY-20, Republican Tedisco had a huge margin weeks before the election but he lost the election to the Democrat (although Murphy did have President Obama on his side). In the world of politics, a months can be a very looonnnnggg time!

If you live in New Jersey...
If you work & have a job...
If you have a family & kids...
If you pay taxes...
Then you know, Corzine has to go!!!

Stan,

You can't just get rid of Abbott districts. They are mandated by a series of New Jersey Supreme Court decisions. I know Republicans like to think the chief executive can skirt the law, but that is not the system of government we have in America.

The NJ Supreme Court interprets the NJ Constitution, and they decided denying poor districts equal funding violates the NJ Constitution. The Governor has to operate under the NJ Constitution – he or she isn't free to change it as they see fit.

Fasten your seat belt, Governor. It looks like you're in for a bumpy ride.

NJ together with NY have some of the highest taxes in the country, run by liberals to the ground, it's no surprise they are both in very big trouble. People and companies are leaving by the masses. Enough is enough.

Consider this, you can expect to pay around $8-10k in property taxes for a run of the mill house. That is insane!!!

Good, this CFR cronie needs to be shown the door.

NJ will not vote Republican...believe it!

All that matters is we blindly hate Republicans. So what if 98% of the stimulus money is going to fat, greedy, rich people? So what if the economy is tanking faster than ever. As long as we join together in our blind hatred of everything Republican we can pretend we're relevant without having to know or do anything. Off with their heads!

Corzine's political days are numbered. New Jersians can no longer afford the liberal agenda. End COAH, End Abbott Districting, get our property taxes under control. Get the NJ government on your side and off your back. Steve Lonegan is the man!

Nj will not vote any way other than democrat. It is that simple. Corzine may not be elected again but I don't see them becoming a red state. It is sad that NJ is so far in debt and has no one to blame but democrats. That is a fact. NJ pays the highest property taxes in the nation and you can't drive 5 miles with out paying a tole and they are still in debt. They have the second largest casino industry in the nation and and a beautiful coast line. Yet they are still under a huge debt. Nobody to blame but democrats.

Being in the state with the highest income taxes for the working residents and having a Chicago politics type reputation no wonder the governor is in trouble. He cannot even obey the speed limits.

For those of you who don't like your choices limited to the usual hard-to-tell-them-apart Republicans and Democrats, there's almost always a Libertarian to vote for. Now that's change!

Maybe Dick Cheney or Mitt Romney or Rudy Giuliani or Rush Limbaugh or Sarah Palin will move to New Jersey and run for governor, then New Jersey will be able to elect the governor they deserve. Because any Republican they elect governor is going to be cut out of the Republican mold, a divisive, bitterly partisan governor who hopes to benefit from a ruined economy.

Looks like Jon's White House hopes are in the bag. Bad economy, bad decisions, corruption (to be fair, he's not implicated), rising taxes and a lot more. A lot of us remember his previous life at Goldman-Sachs before he was pushed out.

Hopefully, someone well qualified can clean up the mess and that includes that cesspool called Atlantic City.

Well this gal from New Jersey knew we were in for a big bad trip when Republican Christie Whitman decided to run on a state tax cut of 30%. I have never lived in a state so obsessed with taxes in my life and I come from MA (better known as "Taxachusetts"). New Jersey is a very dense drive-through state and it is going to cost people for services. For years after Gov. Whitman's tax cut, the lights on the highways were turned off. When she left for Washington and the Bush administration, her GOP successor blew so much tax money we really ended up in a ditch with even the insurance companies abandoning ship. Somehow Dem. Gov. McGreevy reversed the insurance mess so we have our insurance companies back but Gov. Corzine has had to try to turn around the mess left to him by past Governors (Democrat AND Republican) and their one shot deals that keep the voters happy. Times is tough, folks, and NJ is having its problems like everyone else. At least it didn't go bankrupt like CA.

Excellent news.

He will pull it through–he has the money! But he is a good Governor for the State.which was another example of how the GOP ruins things.

Corizine is a terrible govenor, there is no way he could win the next election. There's so many things he's screwed up on that it would be criminal to allow him to be re-elected. Every few weeks my newspaper would have a headline about Corizine raising tolls or raising taxes, hopefully this will all go away soon.

New Jersey has a long track record of electing corrupt, incompetent Democrats. While I think it would be wise for them to consider electing some Republicans, the citizens of New Jersey haven't been known to be wise.

Well...if he loses, we'll know he won't have a reality show that's for sure, LOL!!

And people are worried about their state? Look at ours!!! LOL!!!

"He was always a Republican in Democrats clothing."

See, libs always lie and hate the truth. Corozine is a walking definition of the word liberal. He has not one ounce of republican decency, morals, values, integrity, compassion, fairness, or patriotism.

You can google and find a picture of him too, that's no republican.

The libs in this state are the worst kind of extremist hater libs you can find. They want all republicans killed, you think they would ever vote for one?

Anyway to lie is to lib so I get the point of your post.

Take a drive in the garden state, if you are still alive after doing so you will witness just how liberal Democrat this state is. Yes, the Soprano's was sort of like a documentary, tons of those kinds of "how u doin" libs in this state and you really can't find a worse human being anywhere else in this country, maybe even the world!

Corozine is fine, he symbolizes liberalism by talking about how the state is broke even though we have the highest property taxes, #2 casino industry in America, and tolls everywhere you go. This state is lib cronieism at its finest, Corozine is the boss and between the how u doins, taker libs, and the moraless Moore/Franken clones, a Democrat will always get elected.

New Jersey will not Vote Republican Bet On It!

Corzine bought the job,did what ever he wanted for his pals.He was always a Republican in Democrats clothing.

NJ needs a governor. Don't elect the GOP... just throw those Dems out and replace them with someone who doesn't toe anyone's party line.

It doesn't matter who he is or what he does – he will be an incumbent which in my opinion indicates that he's been there too long already. Government is not supposed to be a revolving career door. That's been our problem all along.

Corzine has good ideas, unfortunately he negates them with the Democrats arrogance and stupidity. Chris Christie for Gov!

Good, another democrat bites the dust. Now this is change I can believe in!

Yeah, I usually vote Democrat but I simply cannot vote for Corzine. And Lonegan had JTP speaking at one of his rallies. And then there's Chrisie. I don't know who I'm going to vote for. Maybe I'll finally leave the state.

"Republicans are eyeing both seats and would tout victories in New Jersey and Virginia as sign of revival leading in the 2010 midterm elections, when 36 states hold gubernatorial contests."

I certainly hope so. Nothing would be better for the Dems than the GOP continuing to refuse to change as we demanded on November 4, 2008. Anything to perpetuate their folly. They'll be getting another message in 2010, don't doubt, and they'll be pretending they didn't hear that one too.

Truth from NJ: All Corzine cared about was using the govenor's seat to reach a position in the White House. He spent these past 4 years placating anyone who could help elevate him with no regard for the tax payers cause he planned on being out of here before this coming election. That's why nationally he is always painted in such a good light, but everyone here thinks he's destroyed the state. But he backed the wrong horse for president, and was too slow switching for Obama to feel he owes him anything. So now he has to reap what he sowed, it's poetic justice. I hope another democrat runs against him, I hope independents run.

The real issue needing to be discussed in the news has President Obama held up to the standard of President Abraham Lincoln, which he was running as a predecessor on/or in the first place?

The number two does President Obama have what it takes; in bringing about criminal charges against the military officials which had participated in the white boarding?

Jon Corzine is just another Democrat running for office in which President Obama’s clout is shining on.

New Jersey??? Isn't that where the mob buries all its hits?

Gee, what happened to all of the democrat election sweeps that I was hearing so much about?

Corzine is outta here!!!!!!!!!!!! The next Governor of NJ will be republican Steve Lonegan.

He loves to spend and tax people til they have a dime left. Say goodbye.................

Corzine has got to go!!!!

Um, hate to break this to you. But Corzine is a Democrat and is a terrible governor.

New Jersey will have a Republican Governor next, hopefully Steve Lonegan, and I can't wait!

Americans are taking a good hard look at what the democratic party is up to... and not liking what they see.

As long as a rethuglican does not get elected I don't care who NJ picks. The rethugs have ruined this country enough.
