Governor Christie - Join the Democrats! [View all]

You won't have to put up with teabilly nonsense, you won't have to take positions against working people, you can let your good common sense and your heart be your guide instead of the dictates of plutocrats.

Anyone else think this might be in the cards?

I for one feel this party could use some good old Jersey attitude - on OUR side!
