In early June, New Jersey governor Jon Corzine began running television ads hitting Republican Chris Christie because he “opposes a woman’s right to choose” and charging he “stands with the NRA.”

Today, about four and a half months later, Corzine is running a new ad . . . hitting Christie for being “opposed to a woman’s right to choose” and charging he “sides with the gun lobby.”

I guess you could say he’s consistent. Or you could say with unemployment at the state at 9.7 percent, the FBI raiding the home of one of his cabinet members, the highest state and local tax burden in the nation, median household income plummeting rapidly (declining by $7,214 between 2006 and 2008), a rapid exodus of once-proud residents, the among-the-most-expensive-in-the-country car-insurance premiums up about 13 percent from last year, and the state declared the worst in the nation to do business . . . Jon Corzine has nothing else he wants to talk about.
