Christie chose to have the taxpayers pay 12 MILLION+ DOLLARS so that there isn't a popular Democrat on the November ticket, to bring more Democrats to the polls, who would vote against Christie.
As Lawrence said last night, 'This is a man who is running scared, and doesn't think the polls are as good as we think.'
He's a chickenshit crook.

(31,937 posts)An election coming up in November. I understand where some New Jerseyans want our next Senator seated sooner rather than later.
However - with the jackasses we have running around in and RUNNING the House - I honestly do not believe it will make a damn bit of difference.
But - I'm also on the left here - and I think it would be AWESOME for Buono to have Pallone or Booker on the ticket.
So I opted for the last choice because I reached out to my state representation this morning to see if there is ANYTHING we the people can do to get out of paying for this stupidity.
Let me tell you - looking for a home? I can't find anything with property taxes less than $7500 a year with an average of $9000 a year.
We in NJ can't afford this. If we can't afford to give our kids a stellar education - then we can't afford this stupidity either.

The people that want Lautenberg's seat should pay. People that contribute to the campaign funds are tax payers in NJ.
