Gov. Jon Corzine (D-NJ) is changing pace slightly from his recent barrage of negative ads against Republican challenger Chris Christie, with a full minute-long ad extolling his own positives.
The polls have shown Christie’s lead over Corzine narrowing, but it’s come almost entirely from Christie losing support to the independent candidate or the undecided column — Corzine has not been picking up new support. This ad could potentially work in that direction, now that he’s loosened some voters from Christie.
At the same time as Corzine talks about his accomplishments in dealing with a trouble economy, he seems to subtly admit there have been some imperfections: “But there’s more to do, it’s a work in progress, and we have more to do to get our fiscal house in order. I think I can do that. I’ve learned a lot, I’ve done a lot.”
