The people of New Jersey, his constituents, disagree. That is who he answers to first. The two spent several hours together. Do you expect him to just say “we appreciate your concern for the citizens effect by the storm”...and then not say or answer any questions the remainder of the day.
Dream land. This is the real world, with people watching every move under a microscope. He has to straddle a fence for his state as well as not look like a pompous blowhard that could cost his party if he goes to strong the other way.
Damned if he does, damned if he doesn’t. If he went to hard and the national press killed Romney because of it, what does that accomplish? NOTHING

We’ll see.
Obama and Cristie have set themselves up to fall below the level of expectation, and so far it doesn’t look good for either of them.
