[still_one]

3. Why do we want another person from Goldman Sacs? /nt

[Thrill]

[still_one]

8. I bet you a soda it doesn't /nt

[Thrill]

9. I'll bet he is there at least as an Asst Sec

[monmouth]

4. Corzine lost because of the belief he is corrupt. Don't need anymore

of those guys in Treasury

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

7. ...and due to taxes. But he must learn that spending $24 million of your own money

can't buy you a political office if you're a weak leader. I don't blame him. I think it's a shame and he is not corrupt. But like most incumbents who preside over a weak economy, they suffer. All politics is local and the average American voter is simply not politically savvy. And because governors are bound by their state constitutions to balance the budget, governors must make very tough decisions: do they raise taxes? Cut popular programs? It's not easy being governor especially when you're blamed for something that's not your fault.

...oh, and I think that Daggett, or whatever his name is, hurt Corzine. He must have siphoned off Corzine's votes.

[mvd]

10. No, if he changes, get someone fresh

[Jack Rabbit]

11. One Goldman Sucks officer for another?

Thanks, but no thanks.

The part about Geithner leaving I rather like. Let's get the stench of Wall Street out ot the Treasury Department.

[Hutzpa]

12. NO WAY!!!!!!

he had $17 million to run a campaign and failed miserably, we should turn over the
treasury to him, you mad...

[mgcgulfcoast]

13. i hope not

lets get someone who didnt help cause this mess. forget corzine.

[bigdarryl]

14. Not a smart move at all Corzine is HORRIBLE!!!!! at handling money

this would be the worst decision for Obama I know I'm living in NJ that's why he became a 1 term Governor he made a lot of money at Goldman S. but from what I hear he was let go.

15. This speculation may stir the pot but Corzine will not go to DC. WH doesn't want him.nt

He doesn't have a big following at the WH, to say the least.

[tabbycat31]

16. He should have taken Corzine in the first place

and let a fresh face run now
