>> that is interesting point. go back to this mcgreevey the appointments he made. christie the hacks. i think that is a challenge. peg, willing for murphy who doesn't have government experience. governor he wering a state like north carolina. you need to look at people who are expert teased in different subject areas and not just the campaign staff. going to goffering two different things. >> you ask the experts in where we're as a state. we're going break now for the better part of the last 25 years is it time for real fresh blood getting in there. >> to some extent. it is enat hack. i will say this. campaign is a def ren experience than running the gom. but you are operating in a political environment then if you don't have some experience, understanding how the people get elect and not able to pan am the government well. there is some blen between governments and poll techs but murphy going to pick people on a

bipartisan basis and pick people to a different geography. >> hire a couple of math teachers that will help reconcile the $1. 3 million to the 15 billion. >> treasury department. you don't want those folks in the communication cold. >> good luck to all of you? all right. >> thank you. >> right. >> thanks. let's check win dan zarrow with your freezing forecast. dan? what do you got for us. meteorologist: the count jun is on for the first optic cold front of the season and as i have been telling all week. the conditions are going to feel look the dead of winter here in mid-november. here's the setup. cold front rifes point did a. that is the day we're watching for the work. not going to be cold buttette is going to be windy. that is 30 miles per hour. you knee adds an extra bite to the cold air and blusty as well as frigid. let's put numbers on the forecast. tonight, it well be fine. low temperatures around 40 degrees and need a jacket for thursday morning and going to bite. thursday during the day, also looks fine.
