Lonegan goes back to purely negative campaigning...

While driving back from an aborted trip to New York this morning due to train issues, I heard a new Lonegan ad attacking Chris Christie and accusing him of assorted violations of something or other. The problem with this ad is that it is just like the sea of other negative ads Lonegan unleashed. This one got a job, that one got a job...blah blah blah.

This negative ad is exactly what has been wrong with Republicans in the state for too long. Instead of competing with ideas, Lonegan is throwing mud. Does he not know that this didn't against Menendez, or Corzine or anyone else lately. To become Governor, each of these candidates needs to describe why and how they will be different than Corzine. However, Lonegan's attack ads just sound like more losing Republican strategy from the same losing Republican NJ strategists.
