Christie touts conservative chops in Alabama

There are certain biases all over the country, right? We have certain predispositions and pre-conceived notions about folks, but as I get to know the folks in Alabama better over time, I think they'll understand that I'm a pretty conservative guy and have a record in New Jersey that is conservative," he said.

While Christie has traveled to Tennessee and Florida for RGA duties, Wednesday marks his first big swing in what many consider the Deep South. Later in the day he crosses the border into Mississippi to campaign for Gov. Phil Bryant in Biloxi.

To highlight his social conservative bona fides, Christie pointed to his anti-abortion record, noting that he's the first "pro-life governor" elected in New Jersey since the 1973 Supreme Court decision legalizing abortion. He also mentioned that he has vetoed Planned Parenthood funding five times since becoming governor.

Yes, but the gun control which is considered tolerable in a blue state in the NE is a far cry from what’s tolerable in the deep south.

Wow, Christie almost looks normal-sized in that mailer. Did he eat a few of those kids after the photo was taken to get where he is now?

So why is Governor Bryant “campainging” with Christie? Is he also trying to alienate Conservatives? Is Christie paying him?
