OMG. He is the slimiest of the slimy.

I keep getting phone calls from pollsters asking if I support Corzine or Forrester. Unfortunately, many of them say Cor-zeen, and I correct them, of course. :P In any case, whereas my husband hangs up on pollsters, I want them to know that we support Corzine all the way. If Forrester wins, I just might have to move out of the state.

And assuming he loses, I'm sure he could find a cushy job in the White House. He's got exactly the right credentials--no integrity, no qualifications, and a record of crookedness.

BTW, Corzine is pulling away in the polls, fortunately . . . :good:

Poll: Corzine draws away in NJ governor's race

TRENTON, N.J. -- U.S. Sen. Jon Corzine has drawn away from Republican rival Doug Forrester in the New Jersey governor's race over the last three weeks, according to a new WNBC/Marist poll.

The poll, released Friday, has Democrat Corzine favored by 50 percent of likely voters, compared to 40 percent for Forrester, the owner of a prescription benefits business. A WNBC/Marist poll released Oct. 10 had the two separated by only a single percentage point.

The latest result is based on a survey of 449 likely voters, conducted Oct. 24-26, with a sampling error margin of plus or minus 5 percentage points.

Other recent independent polls, with a larger sample size and a smaller sampling error margin, have Corzine ahead by about 7 percentage points among likely voters.

Attack ads may be taking their toll in the campaign, the poll indicates.

Among a larger sample of 803 registered voters, 78 percent said both gubernatorial candidates have spent more time attacking one another than talking about the issues, up 20 percent over the previous poll.

Voters appear split on which candidate is likely to be more honest and trustworthy and which is more likely to bring about changes the state needs, and about a quarter of the registered voters surveyed say their unsure which candidate has the better character or the will to bring about change.

Only 32 percent of registered voters polled believe the state is on the right track, compared to 63 percent who say it is moving in the wrong direction. That level of voter dissatisfaction is consistent with other recent independent polls.

Registered voters surveyed are also more willing to blame Democrats _ the majority party in Trenton _ for government corruption. Some 39 percent said the Democratic Party is to blame, while 25 percent blame the Republicans and 22 percent point fingers at both parties.

Some 36 percent of registered voters identified Corzine as too liberal, and 30 percent identified Forrester as too conservative.

The election is Nov. 8. New Jersey and Virginia are the only states electing a governor this fall.
