New Jersey has a problem. Well, actually New Jersey has a lot of problems—today it’s a freakin’ ice storm. However, at least the Garden State now has a governor that, instead of bedding union bosses while sticking the taxpayers payers with the tab, is actually confronting the very problems created by the all-too-cozy relations between NJ’s typical politicians and their union handlers.

While it may be painful to certain sets of public-sector employees, here is a politician that finally tells it like it is.

B-R-O-K-E.

h/t Mark Meed.

…If only Christie could be convinced to run.
