I'm all for privatizing toll roads. Although I confess nearly falling out of my chair when I saw a Democrat came up with the idea!

Once both parties are essentially in agreement on most policies, it creates a void, which one or the other party will soon fill in their quest for power.

If the Republicans don't embrace these ideas, the other party will. Look for a lot more in the future.

If you were a Democratic strategist, (perish the thought) what issues would you think the Republicans are vulnerable on? Their issues (Democrats) have proved to be losers lately, and since they are interested in power, they will look for new issues in the areas abandoned by Republicans. And soon. The witch has already figured this out.

This is just a gimmick.  Gov. Florio sold a part of a highway in Bergen County to the NJ Turnpike to raise $400 million in order to pad the budget.  And now Codey wants to privatize the toll roads?  I'm wondering who will buy it.
 
Why doesn't Codey just get rid of the tolls altogether?
