Corzine's non-record and outlandish moves include:
Corzine's attempt to trash NJ voters' popular vote in a Presidential election is outrageous. A State's popular vote reflects the people's selection. The people of the State deserve their popular vote decision as a NJ State autonomous vote to be reflected by the corresponding NJ electoral vote as mandated by the Constitution. The NJ State electoral vote must not be changed to reflect the national majority voting flow regardless if NJ voters are consistent with the national trend or not. Such a move by Corzine violates the Constitution and serves to have NJ electoral votes surely risk disqualification from incorporation into the national electoral vote tally. Corzine's move on this seems no more than an incredulous posturing to prompt his Party's consideration for a future Presidential nomination.
Corzine's lack of improvement in resolving the burden of high property taxes loaded principally by the education costs lumped into property tax bills imposed of NJ property owners is a sham. The education costs are two-thirds of the property tax bill. He sought merely to seek additional methods in how to "pay the education bill" rather than questioning the validity of the "education bill". The sheer magnitutude of the personnel infrastructure of all the NJ school districts is staggering for the padded layers of administration that are unnecessary and can be streamlined. Streamlining initiatives mean reducing such padded and layered staffs. Streamlining does not mean creating new NJ State education oversight positions either. "Status-quo" on this subject is the current result.
Corzine's casual "plan" to increase tolls on all NJ toll-roads in a continual near-annual barrage of exponential increases escapes reality as a fiscal cavalier approach which heaps another load onto the average NJ worker's personal budget.
Corzine increased the NJ state sales tax from 6% to 7%. Many people were quickly reminded of a previous NJ governor, Florio.
Corzine must realize the climate is ripe for his recall or removal, certainly no later than the next NJ gubernatorial election at latest with the NJ citizen popular vote with the final say at last to select a governor with a true common sense and with fairness to the interests of the NJ public.

But they will vote him in again. They will say he is trying. Us people in NJ deserve everything we get because we vote them in.

Agreed... he may not be the greatest, but he inherited a disaster and he hasn't done anything SO outrageous to be recalled. There are MANY politicians out there who have been guilty of much greater things and they stay standing.
