Most low income workers will not vote for Lonegan. Probably 98% of lower income people will not vote for him. First he is a republican, second is he is a conservative. Most people vote with their pockets and who is better for them. Just look at the last pres. election. 95 percent of black people voted for Obama. If I was a low income earner I would not certainly vote for any republican because they do not have my best interest in heart. Whoever gives each individual the best bang for the buck gets the vote. It's a no brainer.

He won BECAUSE The Mayor before him Gerry McCann was a corrupt politicial democrat that was hauled off to the federal penal system after an indictment for 16 felonies. And the populace was looking for someone to right the ship Same on the national level, people were looking for someone to right the ship and bugs bunny would have won. So lets get rid of Corzine, be it a dem, repub or independent. No one will have a chance because he will open up his wallet and spend 50 million for a job that he accepts a dollar for.

i'm no corzine sympathizer, but what exactly has he done to incur the wrath of this board? my municipal budget, while he's been in office, has averaged 3%/yr increase (and YES! I KNOW he has nothing to do with it, however, it does show that he hasn't raped suburban towns - our budget is practically flat). my state income taxes have not gone up. those 2 items compose 95% of my "NJ" taxes.
i'd classify him as ineffective - NOT the person solely responsible for all of NJ ills, like a lot here would like to portray.

I and some of the we on the board wants someone to change business as usual in this state. Many, many things have to change and he refuses to do so. His solution is two days unpaid leave. Where do I sign up for that. He has not had pension reform and that alone would save this state an awful lot of money. I still see day after day no show jobs, people coming every 2 weeks to pick up a check with no work assignments.PS Wayne Bryant one of his biggest backers. I mean come on he proposed raising taxes on the toll roads by 800% without cutting a stinking nickel. For him it's business as usual and most middle income tax payers are sick and tired of the same ole, same ole. If the whip was cracked in NJ you could cut the budget by 20 to 30 percent without even noticing any change. I know people from the state with take home cars that are supposed to be on call and they haven't ever recieved a call to respond to anything. So they sell their personal car and use the state cars to go to the stores, Disney World and work. My fingers are hurting. All I have to say things need to be shaken up and I don't care who it annoys. We want our kids and grandkids to stay in Jersey and I really, really don't see no hope for them based on business as usual.

LMAO! JM, you crack me up. I love your posts.
So you basically agree he's been ineffective. (the 800% toll increase didn't go through)
Because of that, you're hanging your hat on...........wait a minute...........what's that?!? HOPE and CHANGE ® ? (you know I can't resist)
