1. Good job Governor Fatass!

[PSPS]

2. To the GOP, this is a mark of achievement. This fact will probably bring applause at the convention.

[LiberalEsto]

3. The "Christie Miracle"

It's a miracle New Jersey isn't completely bankrupt -- yet.

[LiberalFighter]

4. Trails the US average?

Seems like they are in a way trying to spin it to make him look better.

[Roland99]

5. "Heckuva job, Christie!"

[Tomay]

6. This idiot is inexplicably popular here in NJ

He's done nothing but wreck our economy with his moronic "austerity" economic policies. During a brutal recession, when businesses aren't spending money and are hoarding it instead, the government needs to step in and try to fill the gap with its own spending. Instead, Governor Flintstone cuts state government jobs and imposes mandatory budget cuts on local government in the state, forcing THEM to lay off workers too. Genius!! How did that not work, I wonder?

10. Can't understand what makes this fat-jowled blowhard popular. Guess he did cut property taxes. Also

"speaks his mind" (or in other words is gruff, rude, and has to tact) and maybe that style works in NJ. We have a similar asshat up here in Maine who acts like Christie and tries to be just like him, and his poll numbers are in the tank.

12. Such a high unemployment rate has a reverse ripple effect. People with jobs become job-scared

and put off buying things they may need which leads to businesses retrenching which leads to more job loss.

Run Bruce Run!

[Roy Rolling]

7. One short

NJ is one job loss short of reversing this trend, if you know what I mean.

[RBInMaine]

8. OK loudmouth fatass, where are the jobs?

[Roy Rolling]

9. Unemployment . . .

It's Obama's fault!

[DavidL]

17. That's amazing, isn't it?

Whenever unemployment is high, it's Obama's fault, not the Congress, not the state, but Obama himself.

Whenever unemployment is low in a state, it's because there is a Republican sitting in the Governor's office, except in states where there is NOT a Republican in the Governor's office, like Massachusetts, (about 6% now) and then Republicans say it's just because ........um.... never mind.

11. That tunnel he cancelled would have created a heck of a lot of jobs.

too bad.

[DavidL]

18. I remember that tunnel cancelation!

Strange that the NJ newspapers and political pundits don't keep hitting him in the head on that one!

[LynneSin]

13. Just think of all the jobs that would have been created building that tunnel

What a douchebag

[BSUbluNorange]

14. Any DUers from Jersey??

I was living there when Christie came into office, after 3 years this is what he has to show???

[Ikonoklast]

15. And, like usual, it will take a Democrat the clean up yet another Republican Disaster.

If Democrats ever decide to "go Galt", this nation is finished inside of two years.

Republicans are to economic progress as the Ebola virus is to good health.

[muntrv]

16. Way to go, Gov. Eric Cartman!

[Lone_Star_Dem]

19. "Jersey Comeback" Christie style!

This is what happens when the Governor goes veto crazy on bipartisan job creation bills.

[SunSeeker]

20. Christie is killing NJ.

The state would be doing at least as good as the national average if he has started high speed rail and that tunnel/bridge to NY. But nooooo.

[bushisanidiot]

21. Chris Christie is sabotaging his own state to help republicans try to make the President look bad.

Chris Christie is to blame for the horrible shape his state is in. Trickle down economics definitely DOES NOT WORK. Christie's state is proving that!

[karynnj]

31. I don't think that is his motive - he is up in 2013

I think he is an ideologue -like Paul Ryan. His prescription is just wrong.

[and-justice-for-all]

22. Way to go Christi the Hutt!!!

fucking loser.

[SoapBox]

23. Gov. Gas Bag...

phewwwww....what's that smell?

Oh...Gov. STENCH.

"Trickle Down" simply means that those under the 1%ers get pissed and shit on.

[onehandle]

24. So the keynote speaker for the GOP CONvention is a serial job loser.

Excellent.

[magic59]

25. Government cutbacks and more tax breaks for the rich =

a big azz depression soon. Hey brother, can you spare a dime?

[WorseBeforeBetter]

26. Republicans are destroying North Carolina, too...

last I checked, we had the 4th WORST unemployment in the nation. "I feel your pain," New Jerseyians!

[SmittynMo]

27. Get the right out of power

This is what happens when you elect a fat ass governor, who can talk the talk, but can't walk the walk. He's totally useless. Glad to see he's the keynote speaker for the GOP. They sure know how to pick em, don't they? Mittens? Ryan? Christie? I guess someone's gotta do it. It's kind of like stupid people. They have to work somewhere.

[Dawson Leery]

29. Interesting to see states with Repub governors are falling behind.

[closeupready]

30. This proves not that tax cuts don't work, but they need to be bigger.
