Voters may dislike McGreedy but they hate RINOs even more.

I think New Jersey and the Democrats make a nice couple. They deserve each other...

This is the legacy of Christie Whitman. She appoints Deborah Poritz, a liberal Democrat, as Chief Justice, who then overrrules the law to enable Lautenberg to run for the Senate. Then, ignoring huge Republican legislative majorities to control redrawing the map after the 1990 Census, she accedes to an "independent" reapportionment by a Princeton University professor, an extreme liberal Democrat, who buys the Dem reapportionment plan in its entirety.

I honestly wish I could say that I'm sorry to see the Republicans lose but the New Jersey legislature was filled with RINOs and they squandered the decade that they did control everything. My only hope is that McGreevey won't go too crazy spending money and raising taxes, not that the Republicans didn't have their own problems in that regard. Unfortunately, a good economy in 2004 will be good for Bush but good for McGreevey, too, unless the Democrats really mess up the state between now and then.

Democrats Now Control N.J. Legislature

Yahoo! No More Spending Limits! Tax Hikes for Everyone!

*shrug* It's mathematically impossible that the GOP can win 100% of all elections anywhere. And as others have already noted, New Jersey's Republican Party is reaping what they sowed after years of offering voters nothing but rampant RINOism. The Democrats deserved to win control there.

N.J. will soon join California on the brink of default.

They got what they deserve.

The state of New Jersey will come to rue the day!

It really makes no difference at the state level in NJ...they are all left wing and/or totally corrupt. NJ needs to be investigated, and soon. The state is rapidly becoming a third world country.

Good for them. They get what they want now. Higher taxes, more regulations etc. They want the Bush tax repealed, so instead they'll raise them at the state level just to make them feel good. I'm so happy for them.

[dangus]

The only hope for Republicans to win New Jersey is for Bush to make a 180-degree change in his style, and excoriate local country-club RINOs for destorying their party, and make it be known that they are not welcome. He'd probably also be finally able to win some black votes, too.
