CBS News) New Jersey Governor Chris Christie spoke to "CBS This Morning" on Tuesday in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, which made landfall near Atlantic City, N.J. and wreaked havoc statewide.

"The state of New Jersey took it in the neck worse than any other state," Christie said of the storm's effects. "It's going to take us a while to dig out from under it, but we will dig out from under it," he added.

Christie called the level of cooperation between the local, state and federal governments "excellent" and praised President Obama's involvement. "I was on the phone for the third time yesterday, last night, with the president of the United States. He called me at midnight last night as he was seeing reports," he said before adding that President Obama accelerated the designation of New Jersey as a major disaster area "without the usual red tape."

"The cooperation has been great with FEMA here on the ground and the cooperation from the president of the United States has been outstanding. He deserves great credit," Christie added.

“This election is not “in the bag” yet.”
I repeat: The election is in the bag for Romney, by a landslide.

I don’t know if you actually watched Fox and Friends this morning with Christie’s comments, but I did.”
I watched live, thank you.

“He was rude and ridiculously over the top.”
It often works with annoying reporters.

but we will NEVER recover from another Obama term.”
I repeat: The election is in the bag for Romney.

“Christie’s praise of a man that deserves none was wrong.”
Human devastation always needs to appear more important than politics. It’s the way it is.

Hope you are safe. . .

Gov. Christie’s over the top antics to the polite and important question he was asked is about one thing only: His ego.

I hope you are correct about the election.

The “human devastation” caused by the Obama presidency is a much larger problem then this natural disaster. I will stand by that statement. The repercussions of obama are felt throughout this nation, and will for years to come. Our nation will survive and overcome this storm.

Steve Doocy asked Christie if there was “any possibility that Governor Romney may go to New Jersey to tour some of the damage with you?” Now I like the Doocys, and the question itself was innocent, but it leaves open the possibility of Christie using the disaster as a political score. He wanted to stay far away from that, and I stand by my conclusion that he was correct not to fall into that trap.

I couldn’t feel more strongly that this will be an unprecedented win for Romney.

“The “human devastation” caused by the Obama presidency is a much larger problem then this natural disaster.”
Couldn’t agree more.

Mutual Admiration Society (1956)

We belong to a mutual
Admiration society
My baby and me
We belong to a mutual
Admiration society

I think he's handsome
And he's smart
He thinks that
I'm a work of art
I say that he's
The greatest man
And likewise he's
My biggest fan

I say his kisses
Are like wine
He says they're not
As good as mine
And that's the way
We pass the time of day

My baby and me
We belong to a mutual
Admiration society

We belong to a mutual
Admiration society
My baby and me
We belong to a mutual
Admiration society

He says, oh
You're the sweetest one
I say, no
You're the sweetest one
He claims that I'm a natural
When I say it's
Just the opposite

The only fighting
That we do is
Just who loves
Who more than who

And we go like that
From night til dawn
My baby and me

We belong to a mutual
Admiration society

Now I do not exaggerate
I think he's nothing
Short of great
He says that kind of flattery
Will get you any place with me

The way we carry on
It tends to just
Embarass all our friends
And that is how we'll
Still be years from now

My baby and me
We belong to a mutual
Admiration society
My baby and me
My baby and me
