Steve Forbes is back in the news, though barely noticeable, as he endorsed (surprise, surprise!) Chris Christie for Governor of New Jersey. Wingnut supporters of Steve Lonegan are heartbroken, however, but Steve Forbes is no fool and obviously wants to have some influence on the general election campaign as well as a Republican administration if Christie is elected.
In his endorsement of Christie, Forbes indulged his usual hyperbole to describe the current economic situation in New Jersey. Of course everything bad is the fault of New Jersey Democrats. According to the sage from Far Hills, "New Jersey's woes are all self-inflicted. Debt has ballooned, from about $3.5 billion 15 years ago to more than $33 billion today.
Now that's chutzpah. Forbes has got the nerve to bring up the last 15 years during which more than half the time Republicans ran the State and he was their economic guru. But then what does one expect from a horse's ass who'd spend millions of dollars of his family's fortune making a fool of himself in the 1996 and 2000 Republican presidential primaries.
