“Corzine” is once again Governor Christie’s favorite dirty word, Save Jerseyans, and he’s doubling down on that theme in his response to the Democrat legislature’s proposed budget.
A brief statement issued yesterday evening from the front office:

I’d still like to know who you have to know to interject budget cuts into the debate?
