Christie on 101.5 FM - March 19

I tuned into 101.5 today to hear Mr. Christie. I make it no secret that out of the 2 leading Republican candidates I favored Mayor Steve Lonegon. I met Steve a few times. I even worked on some americans for prosperity campaigns in the past. Most of all I like what Steve has had to say.

Like one of the two hosts on the broadcast I went in leaning to one side strongly. Listening to Chris, and hearing for the first time many things about him I have come away with a better picture of who Chris Christie is, beyond the obvious law enforcement side.

New Jersey needs to remove Corzine!

New Jersey deserves the best government in the world!

As much as I like Chris, I also like Steve... however for the most part Steve has done what NJ needs done in his Executive capacity as Mayor for 12 years. New Jersey also needs to advance the war against corruption as I believe it is a major cost factor in our tax problems...

2009 will be the first time we elect a Lt. Gov along with Governor and a full assembly!

New Jersey deserves the best and someone needs to bump both Steve & Chris "top side of the head." If they run against each other they may give Corzine what he is hoping for, "splitsville" in the opposition.

I am proposing the team of Lonegon & Christie. I would expect Christie to humbly seat himself as Lt. winning by a landslide on the Lonegon/Christie ticket, and in 8 years step up to Gov. This would insure all New Jersey 16 years of a return to stability, profitability and smooth sailing. As long as they stay focused and do what they say they will.

Someone other than me needs to blow a horn!!!

Jon Corzine just doesn't get it...

Let's face it, all of them in government are missing the boat big time when they are increasing taxes in this economic crisis. The reason we are at critical mass, on the brink of deeper recession is because government is too big and costing too much. Any elected official proposing higher property taxes, increased income taxes, new taxes on other items needs to be thrown out of office! You want to stimulate the economy, leave more disposable income in the hands of those who "earn" it. Funny side bar to this whole mess is the taxation of taxed dollars. Everything you buy, you buy with dollars left you after taxes. I like many New Jersey residents are sick and tired of expensive government. Is it no wonder that New Jersey is the leading eminent domain abuse state. The government realizes they need to take land away from people so they can increase density raise rateables and tax more. Any candidate looking to fill Corzine's shoes at the next election needs to stop spending, by closing down all areas of government that serve little necessary services, if any at all. Do we really need all the duplicity. State, County & 566 local governments???

I think not. Local committees, councils, elders... you want them... fine, then let them cost nothing. These should be sincere capable people who are ready to be servants of the public good, not career paid employees of the public debt.

New Jersey needs to lead the way, much of the revolutionary was was fought right here in New Jersey, we need to show those who wish to serve in elected capacity we have had enough.
