I think the Dems in NJ ought to run on raising takes to double what they are now. That way, the state tax form would read," How much did you make last year___________?
Send it in plus another $10,000 for good measure."
The end.
"Janice Campbell, Codey's executive director, was enthusiastic about the upcoming New Jersey elections. "I think it's clear that we're going to be very successful, that we're in a position to be successful," Campbell said. She added that seats were likely to turn Democratic on local levels, and traditionally, Republican counties were likely to be scenes for "tremendous gains" by Democrats."
I honestly find her statements very funny. The counties she is talking about just saw their biggest Republican turnouts in history and President Bush easily carried all of them. In addition, he carried 2 NJ counties that he didn't have in 2000 (Monmouth, Salem). Democrats lost ground in NJ this past election, even in some of their core counties. If Ms. Campbell really thinks that Democrats are poised to make big gains in New Jersey's Republican counties then I have a bridge to sell her.
