More bad news for New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. As he tries to survive an explosive corruption scandal and stave off a federal audit on use of Hurricane Sandy funds, a new study ranks New Jersey the least economically solvent state in the nation.
George Mason University's Mercatus Center released a working paper Thursday ranking the solvency of the 50 states by a number of factors--from "liquidity and budgetary balance" to "reliance on debt to finance current and long-term expenditures and ability to pay for essential services." They further subdivided the category of solvency generally into cash solvency, budget solvency, long-run solvency, and service-level solvency.

ReplyDeleteHe must be scaring the pants off someone for them to start the political assassination so early in the game. I smell a hillary.
ReplyDeleteCan't blame the insolvency of NJ on Christie.
ReplyDeleteNot all his fault...democrats left him a mess.....i agree 7:20..the spin is too blame standing rep ublicans...candidates...tea party gun lovers pro marriage..pro life..anti gay...NRA..anyone but libtarded democrats..
ReplyDeleteHe's toast.Maybe if he bows out now and explains how he knows he can't be elected people might begin to like him again.Our freedom to decide who we want for President is overrated anyway.It wouldn't be if we as a whole chose wisely,but whats the likelihood of that happening?
ReplyDelete8:38 you couldn't be more wrong about that. Christie won reelection with almost record levels of support.
ReplyDeleteHoboken Mayor Dawn Zimmer is the one who will find her career ending early.
ReplyDeleteShe is making an ass out of herself and you will find her accusations unfounded.
She is clearly not very intelligent to think she had the clout to take on a presidential candidate.
Sit back and watch.
Before I ever voted for Christie I would like to know where he stands on the 2nd amendment. But truthfully I don't think he would ever get my vote their is much better out there
ReplyDeleteNothing new here.. It's the same old Dem tricks: attack, lie, attack, lie, attack, lie...
