St. John of Drumthwacket

So is anyone surprised that New Jersey Gov. John Corzine's first post-car crash TV ad is a public service announcement about seatbelts?

Nice ad, though. Bridges the gap between the classic Yul Brynner "I'm dead" ad and John Lindsay's 1969 "Lindsay eats shit" ad, the text of which was (I'm paraphrasing) "I know everything sucks, but aren't I pretty?"

Two weeks ago Radley Balko backed his SUV up over Corzine's hypocritical record.
