Lonegan has the vision to turn state around

This is a crucial time in New Jersey for the Republican Party. It is important for the survival of our state, to send the current governor home where he can do less harm. It is more important, however, to nominate someone who has the vision to turn this state around. Steve Lonegan is the only one that I believe will actually do this.He is a businessman in the private sector who knows how to get things done. He is a Republican mayor in a town that is mostly Democrat, yet they love him. He is not afraid to say the things that need to be said and will focus on the things that I think are the most important. Get rid of COAH by putting it up for a referendum. Fix the Abbott disaster. Decrease the size of the state government by 20 percent. His philosophy of limited government and freedom for the individual and the virtue of personal responsibility will resonate with voters of all stripes. His policies are striking a chord with the public, and there is a swelling grass roots movement under way. The other candidates are fine men, but I believe that Steve Lonegan is the better man for the job.
