Yes, NJ has similar problems. And like CT, the cause of those problems is decades of liberalism, giving blank checks to unions, spending like crazy, and taxing citizens into oblivion. Paul, the fact that Chris Christie is a Republican who lives in NJ, does not mean that NJ is not a liberal state. Zimmy tried the same argument, saying that I can't claim CT is a liberal place because we have had republican governors. It's not a valid argument. A state is defined as liberal or conservative, based on the policies that are in place. CT and NJ are 2 states that have embraced liberalism. And like all liberal states, those 2 states are on the verge of bankruptcy.

CT and NJ are 2 places that have ben liberal for a generation. The economic consequences speak for themselves. NJ, unlike CT, decided that bankruptcy didn't sound liek a good idea, so they elected Gov Christie. Here in CT, where viters feel like we can dig our way out of a hole, we elected more liberals, who decided that the soultion was to raise taxes and spend more.
