Christie to take oath of office today

Inquirer Staff Report

Christopher J. Christie will be sworn in today as New Jersey's 55th governor, taking the helm of a state facing multibillion budget gaps and weighed down with the highest property taxes in the nation.
In a little bit of history, his running mate, Kim Guadagno, will be sworn in as the Garden State's first lieutenant. In a bit of cost saving, she also will serve as New Jersey's secretary of state.

Inaugural events will begin at 8:30 this morning with a mass at the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart in Newark.

The swearing in is set for noon at the War Memorial in Trenton.

Christie, 47, a former U.S. attorney, replaces Jon Corzine, who failed to win a second term. He becomes the first Republican governor in eight years.

Wishing him the best, he's got a LOT of work to do to clean up the mess here.  And here's hoping if the Socialist State of NJ can elect a Republican governor, then the Commonwealth of Taxachusetts can do the same today for its Senate seat!!  :II:

Here, here!

This is a day of reckoning, if there ever was one.

I can't wait for the election results in Mass. tonight.
