one thing breaks benefiting the attorney general plans to have the special bus if the task force and he later this winter were challenging a new strategy now new jersey will soon require public school teachers to go back to class the whitman administration has announced a revised plan for teachers to undergo a hundred hours of mandatory training agreed five years jersey is the only state that does not require a continuing professional education program visiting a south jersey high school today the governor said this plan backed by the ncaa will benefit all of new jersey students all across the state this plan will benefit children first and foremost by getting teachers the knowledge and the skills they'll need to help students achieve the high academic standards we've set in the state of new jersey the original plan would have made it easy for teachers to lose a license for refusing retraining now the education department will

step in immediately and work with those teachers before their licenses in jeopardy it's nearing the height of new jersey's political season and the governor unveiled a new campaign ad today this one goes on the attack appearing in the habit of boy scouts the governor's accomplishments before attacking her democratic challenger on his tax record as mayor of woodbridge and state senator referred to mcgreevey as a tax and spend democrat martha stewart's keep our economy strong as a state legislator mcgreevey voted to raise sales and income taxes two point eight billion dollars to jim mcgreevey just plain wrong on taxes today mcgreevey said the governor's that is a distortion of his record in time the democrats' campaign got a boost today first lady hillary rodham clinton was in new jersey raising money as senior political correspondent michael aron reporter she was also raising hopes that victory is possible in the gubernatorial and legislative elections a

change and the holes in a name in searches been in many rooms like this any enthusiasm that you have in this room this far from election tells me that you are on the right things are in the country the answer jim mcgreevey like her husband understands the importance of early childhood education daycare parental involvement and a precious training for non college bound students if you take this package that gm is advocating for a lifetime warning you can see what a difference it would make in the lives of the people of this state all we need is to get him a lot this was a women's event with many speakers criticizing governor wins record on

women's issues says clinton's attack was very light an indirect focusing mainly on the greedy strikes as he sees them the attack or felt other you're not playing the delight of my children no more the candidate also continued his recent criticism of whitman's education record quoting again the new jersey's new core curriculum standards for poorly in a think tank or fourth we have a president a first lady who is talking about setting standards of accents and yet we have a governor who unfortunately has ripped apart the quality of standards in our educational system mrs clinton's paid lip service to agree these two other big issues like property taxes in ohio auto insurance and the crowd played to hear it in this recession and to others for high rollers democrats hope to raise a quarter of a million dollars for the fall campaign like where an indian tribes now that libertarian gubernatorial candidate mary sabre and has made it a three way race what will that mean in this campaign

season state house correspondent jim parker examines who might gain who might lose with this a big factor even say words campaign admits he's got his work cut out for him if he's to become the first independent candidate in the modern era to win election a statewide office here it's a viewpoint shared by many who volunteers the politic its people are more prone to an argument from an outsider that we need change a radical change one thing sorry going well i think it's a hard time to make that argument this point new jersey in this point america's things are relatively stable and prosperous one small apartment visited one small garment they'd be very happy with the weapons and have the money that election the point is people once more garment they want a fashion garment that one garment intruding in all their lives political observers say even if savings messages minimal government which resonates with voters is unlikely to raise the billions needed to get that message out largely through television advertising even those qualify

for matching funds is probably going to have maybe three quarters million dollars maybe even a million but even a million have doesn't make much of the dentures saber has ever run for public office before but he insists he's into when he does and who would be hurt most by tennessee whitman were mcgreevey people as i could speculate who's he going to take brown well i have to say that i think that anyone that supports legalizing drugs and prostitution and doing away with medicare and medicaid is not one of my voters are not too worried about it i really want to change really want something different to when you can says mcgreevey stands to lose the most votes to say britain or whitman is the incumbent and she's known if people want a vote against her they now have two alternatives rather than one saverin raised and spent more than two hundred ten thousand dollars to qualify for public funds and a place in the upcoming debates jim harper and endings there's more to come tonight an injury and is the state wants people to
