Skeptical you should be. He is a part of the problem in NJ. He did support Christie on the property tax cap and the pension problem but he’s done nothing to fix it.

Democrats lie. Period!

He’s just leaving space for a new younger communist to take his place.

As long as you remain a Democrat, you will be part of the problem.

Christie wasn't much better.

"As long as you remain a Democrat, you will be part of the problem."

Alexandria Ocasio Cortes is a socialist. She say just make it free.
When you hear the truth spoken you should applaud it. I'm "stuned", frankly.

NJ with a $142 billion pension liability? Ha, amateurs. I’m in Illinois our pension liability is $250 billion.
********************************************************
Yep, compared with Illinois, New Jersey ‘RATS are rank amateurs. The Illinois ‘RATS managed to actually get protection of Illinois GOVERNMENT EMPLOYEES’ pensions incorporated into the State constitution. New Jersey could actually make pension plan changes without those changes being thrown out as unconstitutional.

It is obvious that Democrat politicians and Democrat voters are too stupid to understand any of this. Give me free stuff is the ticket.

Democrats are a modern day plague.

AND you get what you deserve NJ. You just re-elected a corrupt pedophile Democrat as Senator.

Go F yourselves some more.

...Suddenly he sounds like a raving conservative.

I know a lot of spineless republicans that have spent our way
to the poorhouse. The DebtBomb is only getting bigger.

And those who hold the promissory notes laugh

I say again NO FEDERAL BAILOUTS for states that are not responsible with their own budgets and pension promises. They got into this mess on their own, they can get out of it on their own.

They could easily pay off all their debt with monopoly money, and the residents of that state wouldn’t know the difference. After all, money grows on trees, or is simply manufactured, with no need to account for where it came from.

Sweeney will be booted out of power by leftwing New Jersey Democrats.

Sweeney is too white, too conservative for Jersey Democrats!

Sweeney is the Manchin of NJ politics.

South Jersey is very conservative-leaning.
