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.

They deserve the mess they vote for. Enjoy, Jersey.

Unfortunately the gun owners are going to get killed in the state. The Superintendent of the State Police wants to modify the gun magazine law. Under state law, gun mags cannot exceed 15 round capacity. It is legal for high capacity mag owners to put a wood dowel in the mag to limit it to 15 rounds or less. Unfortunately the Superinendent does not accept this legal solution. He wants the fix to be permanently welded in. Furthermore, many Dems want to add more definitions to what is an assualt rifle. Many were appalled that AR-15 are still being sold in NJ after proper cosmetic changes were incorporated to make them legal. I think the Ruger Mini-14, all AR-15's, military semi auto rifles with any pistol grip will be banned and last not least, the 50 cal bolt action "deadly sniper" rifle.

When Jim Florio was governor, there became a phenomenon that Pennsylvania real estate agents called "the Jim Florio Fan Club" who were basically people moving out of NJ.
