WILL NATION’S POOR DEBT RATING EFFECT NEW JERSEY?

New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is unsure how the nation’s faltering debt rating will effect the Garden State.  Speaking to reporters on Monday, Christie says the state will take a wait and see approach to see if the lower debt rating has a negative impact on New Jersey.  Christie believes the downgrade in the debt rating is really more about politics than anything else.  New Jersey’s own credit rating is the third worst in the country.
