But if Corzine is to be elected the state's next governor, it behooves him to start laying a foundation for the ambitious policy agenda he often mentions on the stump but rarely details. And Corzine himself may be in a for a big surprise when citizens, including many who voted for him, reject the new governor's policy agenda as something out of left field that was never adequately explained to them. politics.nexcess.net /rebovich/2005/10/corzine_poised_to_become_unpop.html   (1244 words)

CNN.com - Sen. Corzine enters New Jersey governor's race - Dec 1, 2004 Corzine's move comes as the influence of Senate Democrats has waned in the wake of last month's elections, which shifted more power to the Republicans, who will have 55 of the 100 seats in the chamber, and Corzine acknowledged that has affected him.

Jim Geraghty on Jon Corzine & Democrats on National Review Online While Corzine is far from a budget hawk, he doesn't hesitate to cite pork-laden bills as examples of GOP mismanagement, like the final version of the Homeland Security bill.
