But with a blue state, it is a problem...

I can go on and on. He also adresses people in open town halls, no prescreened questions, or prescreened admissions, he talks to people on the radio weekly. adresses concerns, and even solves some citizens problems instantly, using his connections.

I live in NJ. I know what he has done, and I am making more money in his term. My property taxes actually stabilzed, rather than going up, as my house value dropped.

Once again I live in NJ, and go ahead make a stinky joke, but he has turned this state around, despite partisan crap.

(by the way I am left leaning, and Christie is a Republican, so yeah, I am judging what is best, and not my political leaning.)

What are you afraid of in the real "ghetto" crap hole? Why has Christie not cleaned up Newark? Will not help him politically no reason to address the ghetto?

Like any politician, they will not touch an inner city ghetto.

Pisses off the activists. Chicago and Detroit can be brought up as well, no politician cares about those cities.

I am not call Christie Jesus, just giving a moderate republican some creedence in a world of "Christian Sharia" tea baggers, and John "crybaby jobs,jobs,jobs" Boehner.

You keep touting Christie for 2016. Will DC improve, as well as the country, with another politician that will not touch the inner cities?

I've been to new jersey several times.

it has its nice areas, but on the whole, most of the entire state is a garbage heap.

I pray i never have to go back to that place.

the graffiti is really nice in the fall though

The western side towards PA is not bad at all. Countryside!

You must have been up north, where New York has spilled it crap over onto us.

Come down the shore, there is more to Jersey than what ya see on the stinky Turnpike.

Belmar, NJ. I guarantee the sea air, and great nightlife will change your mean opinion. Meany!

I thought Cape May was decent.

The north half of the state is unpleasant.

Im looking at you Jersey City

Drive down Martin Luther King boulevard for a real show.

Jersey City is so close to Newark it may as well be the same thing. Literally 5 minutes drive away, no bull

I am so sorry you had to see that...I got some stories from my drug filled youth, when I actually put myself into places like this.

Monmouth county south is safe, and beautiful.

Until you get to Camden, which is scuzzed up by Philly.

NJ gets a bad rap, but it is NYC ers and Phillies who overspill all of their crime into our suburb.


North Jersey stinks because New York city and its smog stinks us up. South Jersey stinks because Camden and Philly are gang ridden cesspits.

Central Jersey, Goldilocks. Just right.

Every state/city has its pleasant areas and its cess pools.

Even Utah, Salt Lake City has its gang banger drug dealing abstainers from drinking caffeine.

I think there is to some extent a reluctance to deal with ghetto areas it seems easier to just ignore them.

Not that much of this has anything to do with Hellfire equipped drones.
