Gov. Jon Corzine (D-NJ) has a new TV ad attacking his Republican opponent, former U.S. Attorney Chris Christie, for saying that he would reject federal stimulus money.

The ad reminds people of what is probably Christie’s biggest weakness in this race. Although he’s ahead int he polls right now, Christie is a Republican running in a Democratic state — and he worked in the George W. Bush administration:

“But Chris Christie’s so partisan he’d reject President Obama’s stimulus funds – driving up property taxes $2 billion,” the announcer says. “Chris Christie — the same Bush policies that got us into this mess.”
