Republican Response

Nationally, the federal budget deficit has been almost cut in half, we are nearly at full employment and the economy is booming. The Corzine/Democrat led government shutdown and juvenile budget debacle has further soured New Jersey taxpayers on government in general. The terrorist driven flare-up in the Middle East will ultimately raise the President's approval rating because the terrorists are proving Bush correct on the importance of taking the fight to "their" shores rather than letting them attack the Jersey shore.
