Chris Daggett, the independent candidate in the New Jersey gubernatorial race, has a funny new ad for the home stretch, featuring actors that have previously portrayed satirical versions of Democratic Gov. Jon Corzine and Republican challenger Chris Christie.

“An $8 billion deficit?” says the fake Christie, an uncouth brute who threatens to throw people in prison if he doesn’t get his way. “Whoever did this should be going to jail!”

“Just raise property taxes, problem solved,” says the aloof Corzine.

Daggett then presents them his plan: “I call it, ‘Don’t spend money you don’t have.'”
