I looked at your FR page and it seems to me that New Jersey is not a good enough state for you. OTOH, it deserves McGreevey and the people who elected him. No empathy for them from these quarters, particularly since they had the opportunity to elect a first-class man (Schundler) and declined it.
Have you considered moving to a more hospitable place, a state whose citizens are more attune to what you believe in?

I've often thought about it but I like it here. Close to NYC, the beach what we call the "shore" is great; however, I don't like paying for it nor the traffic and tolls on the Parkway, the mountains are close and the food. The food is great over here.
Believe it or not, there are many, many conservatives in this state. Over 900,000 people voted for Bret Schundler in 01, Hopefully he will win in 05; he is running again.
There is a nucleus of people who are pro 2nd amendment, pro life, school choice, end tolls, home school, who want low taxes and less regulations, we try but it's hard to find good candidates and to get out the vote. We have the highest rate of public employees than any other state and they vote, most often, they vote democrat.
And, in a way you are right, WE do deserve McGreevey, not WE the conservatives who worked hard for Schundler, but WE the unaffiliated and moderate republican voter who said that Schundler was "too conservative" well, they did get what they deserved: a lying, incompetent, ultra left-wing, liberal democrat the very antithesis of someone who is "too conservative". Besides, if you, the NJ voter, had read the platform of the Republican Party, Schundler was mainstream and in line with the platform.
In what state do you live?
