Chris Daggett on the campaign trail in New Jersey

For independent candidate Chris Daggett, the final days of his campaign for New Jersey governor are all about asking voters to take a leap of faith. He's asking all the New Jersey voters who are fed up with Democrats and Republicans to take a chance on an independent who has managed to raise enough cash to qualify for public funds and a place in the debates and garner some 13 percent of likely voters in a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday. In the same poll, Gov. Jon Corzine pulled ahead of Republican challenger Chris Christie with 43 percent of the vote, as opposed to Christie's 38 percent. For Daggett, the devil is in the details and he says he is the only candidate who has any details at all. (Video by Nyier Abdou/The Star-Ledger)

Do you want the rich one Corzine to buy his way in? Are you sick of those that don't care one iota about real people.

Corzine is a part of Goldman Sach's. He is a billionaire. When people are billionaires like he is, they crave power over people. They are never satisfied and wouldn't know an ordinary working man if they were standing right in front of them. He is a crook and we have enough crooks in Washington and we don't need more. We have got to vote the jerks out so they all will get the message that we are fed up. There are no jobs being created. We are not as stupid as they seem to think we are.

I'll take my chances with Christie. Corzine thinks because he is a billionaire, he can buy the election. We have got to stop electing people just because they can raise the most money or have the most money. Those type only want more power and they never can get enough money. As for as Corzine making fun of Christie for being overweight, so are a lot of people, but that doesn't mean they are not good people. They are very concerned and loving people. Corzine is a jerk.
