NJ DUer's. What was McGreevey like as a governor?

[devilgrrl]

Excuse my ignorance but I don't know anything about this guy. Besides being closeted, what was he like as a governor?

[AP]

1. He was great on shifting tax burden off of the middle class and if this...

...thing is BS, I would bet that's what motivated it.

2. He was good.

He could have been better, but with the federal tax sharing nightmare and the wreckage left by Whitman, he got dealt a crappy hand.

3. Cable News (all of them)

are reporting his administration as "scandal ridden" and
"troubled" and that state Dems were trying to get Corzine
to run against him in the next election anyway.

Don't know myself... but it sounds like a typical VWRC hatchet job.

TONIGHT'S FOCUS: The Governor of New Jersey, James McGreevey, made a stunning announcement today. He is going to resign, acknowledging that he had an affair with another man. The Governor is married. His announcement was probably one of the most personal, and searing statements by any politician in recent times. Will there be a larger impact? This comes on the same day that California's Supreme Court annulled all of the gay marriages that had been performed in San Francisco. Has the climate of this country changed in terms of gay rights? We'll explore those issues tonight.
