New Jersey's Joseph Kyrillos for US Senate |
Joseph Kyrillos, the state senator from Monmouth, is running
for the US Senate against Robert Menendez, a "flabby" incumbent who commands little respect with his
fellow New Jerseyans (Unpopular
Menendez).
The Times of Trenton has
reported that Kyrillos has more than a snowball’s chance of winning the senate
seat, despite the fact that it has been fifty years since a Republican was
elected to the office (Kyrillos
Can Do It). With Governor Christie’s
tough take on debts and spending, this may be the year that mid-Atlantic
moderation goes from Jersey Shore to the banks of the Potomac.

Robert Menendez is an undistinguished junior senator, one whose
polling numbers suggest that “someone else” or “none of the above” would do
better if he were the only named candidate on the Novermber vote. (See above).
During his abysmal tenure, Menendez has voted against
extending middle class tax cuts. He has opposed extending the Keystone
Pipeline, a measure which would help bring down the cost of gasoline, which in
Trenton currently ranges at $3.35 to $3.45 a gallon (High Gas Prices) and would increase
this country’s independence from foreign oil. Twice Menedez has voted against a
Balanced Budget Amendment, all while voting 97% of the time with a party which
has exploded the national debt in a little over three years (Menendez in
Tax and Spend Lock-Step) He has also voted against ending the earmark practice
eating away at our country’s dwindling budget.

Menendez is part and parcel of the same liberal cabal which
brought upon this country ObamaCare, another massive entitlement that robs
Medicare to the tune of $700
billion. Because of the law’s overwhelming rules and regulations, hospitals
are closing all over the country (CaliforniaPennsylvaniaNJ
Real Times — Nearly Every Hospital HurtEnglewood,
New Jersey) The law fails to take of the cost of caring for illegal
immigrants, who are still entitled to health care, but who will neither be able
to purchase insurance, nor will they be taxed for not purchasing insurance (Illegal
Immigrant Loophole). Furthermore, the law fails to cover workers
and their families adequately, as one of many unforeseen loopholes in the
legislation exclude working families from family coverage (American
Worker Loophole).

With an unemployment rate of 9.8%, New Jerseyans do not need
any more financial burdens when it comes to looking for work or maintaining
their healthcare. Menendez has done nothing to help working New Jerseyans to
get back on their feet. This year, the state of New Jersey can send another rollicking
message to Washington and the country. Accountability and fiscal responsibility
are desperately needed in our federal government, and Kyrillos can carry it
into D.C.

In his twenty years in the New Jersey statehouse, Kyrillos
supported the two percent cap on property tax increases. (Joe on Tax Cuts)
While serving his constituents of the 13th Senate district, Kyrillos
sponsored legislation that would cut taxes on job creators, offer tax credits
for manufacturing, and promote sales and use tax rebates (Joe
Votes for Tax Cuts). Regarding education, Kyrillos has partnered with
Governor Christie to empower parents and hold schools accountable for they
spend tax dollars and how they educate New Jersey’s kids. (Joe for Education
Reform)

In spite of Mendacious Menendez’ claim that Kyrillos raided
a pension fund to help balance the state budget one year (Mendacious
Menendez), Kyrillos is leading the charge on reforming Trenton
pension obligations (More

Moreover, Kyrillos has signaled to New Jersey voters that he
is willing to bring compromise as well as character to Washington, just like
the New Jersey governor who has forged tax-cutting proposals with a heavily
Democratic legislature. He supports the Simpson-Bowles plan which blends
spending cuts and revenue increases by eliminating loopholes for large
corporations (Kyrillos
for Real Compromise), a move which even liberal former Secretary of Labor
Robert Reich endorsed with conservative columnist George Will. Even the
Star-Ledger editorial page has applauded Kyrillos’ integrity to pursue
problem-solving instead of rabid partisanship (Kyrillos
in the Star-Ledger)

Among the numerous endorsements which State Senator Joseph
Kyrillos has received, including the US
Chamber of Commerce, The
National Federation of Independent Business, Hunderton
County Leaders, Governor Chris Christie, who endorsed Kyrillos before he
won the GOP nominations, has heralded Kyrillos’ wisdom, research, and skill to find a way to work with the other side on key issues including tax reduction and job
creation.

The Wall Street Journal has also touted the key element that
makes Christie and Kyrillos successful candidates and political contenders:

“For his part, Mr. Christie said he is supporting Mr.
Kyrillos because of his bipartisan work in Trenton.” (WSJ,

Kyrillos has the character, the charisma, the company, and the
New Jersey community utmost in mind. Despite the trends of history and
constituency which have up until recently favored liberal candidates, I hope
that 2012 is the year that the Garden State sends a tried-and-true conservative
to Washington to institute lower taxes, less spending, and more local control
for New Jersey and the Country.
