Negativity in New Jersey
From the Star Ledger this morning:
"TRENTON, New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine has signed an executive order shutting down the state's government, for the first time in its history. Horse racing at the state's tracks was called off, road construction projects were halted and roughly 45,000 of the state's 80,000 employees were put on furlough
And even in New Jersey, where politics can be a contact sport, the body blows that accompanied the budget debate have been noteworthy."

You read right, horse racing was mentioned first.
Jersey shore towns are alive and well, but at the height of the tourism season, the state has shut down all but essential services.
It is hard to maintain an atmosphere of Polyanna positivity in the State of Political Nightmares.
