Well, that’s it. The towel has been thrown in. John Corzine has been unseated as Governor of the State of New Jersey and has just given a great concession speech.
Sure, Corzine was a financier who may have been around at Goldman Sachs when the current recession was a spark in the eye of Wall Street, but at least he was honest.
Newark Mayor Cory Booker has a tounge in cheek response to a Tonight Show joke about Newark. I am sure this will be tossed back and forth for at least a few days. My favorite part, forbidding Conan Obrien from flying into Newark Airport.
I think it’s a brilliant way to get his agenda across and defend the thousands of people who make fun of New Jersey all the time.
As a resident of Jersey City, the only thing our Mayor did when late night TV made fun of JC, was get drunk. Which is what he allegedly does every night anyway.
