4. been waiting for 24 hours to see this somewhere else
received a text message from the campaign about it, but NOTHING else. I certainly hope that Corzine is just 'keeping his powder dry' and will strike hard closer to Nov.........I am getting nervous.

5. I am too
I'm going to a Corzine campaign event tonight, and if I get a chance to talk to him, this is the #1 question that I would ask.

6. I will be stopping in the local campaign office tomorrow
to see where I can be of service. I do NOT want someone- CC- who has been so far up the collective Bushier Butt that he probably holds hands with Saudi princes as my Governor.

CHRISTIE LABELS HIMSELF CORRUPT


TRENTON—Citing Right Wing Conservative gubernatorial candidate Chris Christie’s statement in today’s Star-Ledger that “broken promises are the first path towards corruption,” Mercer County Executive Brian Hughes said that he agrees with Christie.

In today’s Star-Ledger, Christie said, “‘You have to elect better people, and when they don't live up to their promises, you need to kick them out, because broken promises are the first path towards corruption,’ Christie said during a campaign stop in Sayreville on Monday. ‘Because if you get away with a lie during the campaign, if you get away with a promise you don't keep and you re-elect them, they begin to think they can get away with anything.’”

During his campaign for Morris County freeholder, according to the Daily Record, Christie said that “put out to bid all contracts for consultants and professionals” was “one of his major campaign themes. Christie said that “This one of the major things I’m running on. It makes common sense. It's good government. Let the chips fall where they may and get the best people at the best price.”

Then, after being sworn into office, Christie promptly broke the central promise of his candidacy and voted for no-bid contracts for his campaign contributors.
