   CC looks really presidential in this video–NOT!! The man is a buffoon. Seems like he gave up on New Jersey. I see he is going to London for “trade talk.” Question: What benefits occurred to this state, when he went to Mexico???

   How much is this trip going to cost the taxpayers? Are we going to get raped again in state police protection costs—I guess we will never know since he won’t release the records. Its our money–yet he refuses to show how it is spent!

   Governor Christie named his PAC “Leadership Matters for America.”

   Here’s the truth under Gov. Christie’s leadership.

   Unemployment: New Jersey has the highest percentage of working-age adults in the country still grappling with long-term unemployment. New Jersey’s unemployment rate is 6.6 percent, considerably higher than the national rate of 5.8 percent, making the state 32nd in the nation.

   Job creation: New Jersey ranks dead last among the 50 States in job growth during Christie’s governorship. New Jersey has recovered fewer than half of the 257,900 jobs it lost.

   Credit rating: Three major credit agencies have cut the state’s credit rating since Christie became governor, making it costlier to borrow money. Furthermore, New Jersey’s credit rating moved downward for an eighth time, which is projected to cause another downgrade of the credit rating within two years. The reason for the downgrade is because of Gov. Christie’s intentional failure to fund the pension – a blatant disregard of HIS signature pension reform law.

   Economic growth: New Jersey was just one of seven U.S. states whose economy shrank. The state ranked 36th in terms of GDP growth.

   Taxes: New Jersey is 50th in the Tax Foundation’s annual report, which ranks which states have the most business-friendly (translation: lowest) taxes. Tax burden grew by 18.6 percent for the average family under Christie.

   Home prices and foreclosures: Mortgage delinquencies have increased 2.8 percent since Christie took over, the highest of any state in the nation. Plus, home prices are down 6.7 percent in that time, putting New Jersey in the bottom quarter of all states.

   Poverty: New Jersey has reached a 52-year high, with 24.7 percent of the state below the poverty level. New Jersey is one of just three states that saw more people falling into poverty than rising above it. Nearly 1 million New Jerseyans lived below the poverty line in 2013, up from nearly 935,000 in 2012, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In fact, New Jersey is only one of three states where poverty has gone up according to the latest U.S. Census data. (New Mexico and Washington are the two others.) Back in 2007, 8.6 percent of the state lived below the poverty line. That went up to 9.4 percent in 2009 and in 2013 hit 11.4 percent.

   Courts: Gov. Christie had the opportunity to change New Jersey’s Liberal Supreme Court to Conservative but choose to make it even more liberal.

   Pension: Gov. Christie has exacerbated the pension problem because he has reneged on his signature pension reform law. Gov. Christie has now caused a greater burden on the tax payers by costing twice as much over five years. By cutting the $2.4 billion payment it is estimated, according to the Governor’s own financial team, to cost tax payers $4.2 billion. If his landmark pension reform legislation (just three years ago) was to save the pension and NJ tax-payers why does he demand more? He either lied to all New Jerseyans, then and/or now, or is wholly incompetent.

   Gov. Christie has only one solution for all of the multitude of problems affecting our State, and that is to pit the struggling private sector against the public sector because he has failed to govern. Is this leadership?

   It’s far easier to run for a position of leadership than it is to be an actual leader.
