Do You Support Trenton's A.C. Takeover? 
Meet Jon Corzine: Joe Ferriero's Sugar Daddy
And you thought Carla Katz was the only soul who knew the way to Corzine's wallet!
Democrat Joe Ferriero's corruption trial is all-over state newspapers this week (click here to read more about it). During his time at the helm of the Bergen Democrat organization, Ferriero was one of the most corrupt county party bosses in Garden State history. Joe shouldered a shovel and successfully steered a river of dirty money through North Jersey. He turned Bergen "blue" but nothing lasts forever, Save Jerseyans.
Guess what? Governor Corzine helped bankroll his operation. Our governor (via his checkbook) is the ultimate enabler of New Jersey corruption.
The numbers don't lie:
