Chris Christie is now public enemy number one in my book. I will do all I can to help ensure he never wins another election.
Obama was DOA until Christie decided to “John Roberts” us on the beach.
This episode really ticked me off.
Dead to me!
Christie’s sucking up to Obama was pathetic. Is he hoping to get Chrissy Matthews’ job at PMSNBC after the men in white coats do their job? Christie reminds us that you can’t even trust the people who are supposedly on the same side of the aisle.
christie groveled. It was not a pretty sight.
He wants to run for president in 2016. Occam’s razor.
Christie just as well become a Dimocrat after this ultra-stupid move. He had no business shooting Romney and the GOP in the back like this.
Christie is proof that a big tough talker is just all big tough talk.
When push comes to shove and a crisis hits, he finds the nearest security blanket.
What a putz.
If its true that Christie refused to campaign with Romney then he is a schmuck. Maybe Obama promised him a cabinet position, I wouldn’t be surprised. At first I thought Christie was suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after witnessing the destruction that occurred in New Jersey, but now, after hearing this additional info, Christie is all about himself..should have known, he gave that boring speech at the RNC Convention people were speculating then something was up
Christie also refused Mitt’s request to appear with him at the PA. rally.
That desperation hope was completely dashed when Romney picked Ryan for VP. Since then he has undermined the ticket in ways large and small and tooted his own horn. There are too many serious, attractive conservatives in his way (Ryan, Rand Paul, Rubio, ...) for Christie to ever advance up the career ladder. Barring a cabinet appointment -- which now will NEVER HAPPEN -- Christie (might) get reelected as NJ governor, and then he's done.
Yes, Christie might well have hurt Romney, but he's completely destroyed himself.
He was a flash in the Republican pan. I hope this ends any further talk about his presidential aspirations.
I heard Christie was being vetted for the VP slot and was confident he’d be chosen but after the European trip last summer Mitt chose Paul Ryan instead. Supposedly Christie is miffed by this and it also explains why Christie mentioned Romney so seldom during his convention speech. Supposedly he is a sore loser.
Hey Rich! See why we conservatives have issues with RINO’s
now? Welcome to the party pal!
I read somewhere that Obama was on a plane with Springsteen and he called Christie because he knew what a Boss Fanboy Christie is. “Hi, Governor...it’s Bruce...” And since Springsteen has spurned all of Christie’s advances in the past, he’s forever grateful to Barack Woolery far helping make the love connection.
The level of embrace between Obama and Christie Kind of sent a message. If you want something from Obama then you need to do a lot of kissing to get it. Even in a disaster where people are desperate.
Really! This is stupid. How does one hour of a obama/cristy bromance supercede the very real threat of America’s conversion to socialism, loss of freedom and a total economic meltdown...being brought to you by a second obama term? Really?
I’m still wondering what I heard from him this morning about refusing the free gubmint gas. He said it was because it was a mess across the river in NYC. A search of the news shows little on it in NYC. We all knew it would be a Charlie Foxtrot, but there’s almost no info on it. What does he know that we dont?
With all due respect to these legitimate criticisms about Christie’s praise for Obama, the optics of Christie attending a campaign rally while his state is dealing with a disaster would be awful. I think we’re going a little bit overboard with these conspiracy theories.
A lot of Conservatives couldn’t wait to throw Scott Brown under the bus once the Democrats used Reconciliation as a means of ramming through Obamacare, making his historic Senate victory seem hollow. Brown and Christie are about the best you’ll ever get in Blue states like Mass. and Jersey.
Christie’s got the highest approval rating of any Governor in Jersey since they started taking polls. Christie Whitman and Tom Kean weren’t exactly Tea Party Gadsden flag wavers either.
I can understand having doubts about Christie as a GOP POTUS nominee, but would you rather have someone like Jon Corzine running that state into the ground, rather than a nominal Republican doing a good job turning things around and setting an example for other Blue states to follow?
I heard Christie defending himself on a news clip by saying he didnt do anything wrong by praising Obama for doing a great job on Sandy. I actually cursed that fat SOB out loud in my office. Its stupid Republican jackoffs like this that lose important elections.
