New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Sunday defended Mitt Romney against criticism that his wealth complicates his ability to connect with everyday folks, saying Romney’s wealth should be a positive factor in the race.
“I think that’s what we want in a president of the United States,” Christie told host Bob Schieffer CBS’s “Face the Nation,” saying that Romney's wealth is a reflection of his success.
His defense came after Romney noted in a Michigan speech Friday that his wife Ann drives “a couple of Cadillacs.”
“So the cat’s out of the bag, Bob, on the fact that Governor Romney’s wealthy,” Christie said. “So he has a number of cars, many people who’ve made a lot of money over time do. I think this is just something where, to be candid, folks are looking for him to make trip ups.”

Romney gave his inheritance away.
To which offshore Cayman or Swiss account?
You can have him. He’s done nothing for my state. he thinks illegals haven’t broken any laws. The guys a RINO.
I want him. Send him to me. I will send you Perry. Who does not feel very different re: illegal immigrants. I am happy with our trade! I shall send Perry posthaste.
“I do not want an AK-47.” Then don’t buy one.
I do want one....or two. By the way, an AK-47 is a fully automatic machine gun.
The firearms here in America that the media calls “AK-47s”
are actually an AKS....a semi-automatic rifle.
Also, the Second Amendment has nothing to do with “personal protection.” The purpose of the Second Amendment is to enable the people to have the ability to overthrown a tyrannical government should such a government assume power in the United States.
You can have Christie.
Name one democrat career politician who wasn’t exponentially richer than when he/she began in politics.
I really do not care how rich anyone is but I want to know how is it that the elected seem to get very wealthy during their time in office......
Neither and btw having an account in the Cayman Islands is not illegal, I'm sure if Newt had one you'd be fine with it, secondly he gave the money to charity, BYU.
What do you have against rifles?
Didn't think so.
LOL! Well hang on pard, I gotta lasso the rounder, he’s a bigun’!
LOL..you have your work cut out for you! That had better be a big lasso! Don’t forget tho, Perry is packing. Hope he does not mistake me for a coyote! Arf!
What? I have nothing against rifles. In fact, I bet I have the sweetest rifle on this forum. It was my grandmother’s. A 44/40 lever action Winchester saddle gun..Big difference between that and an assault weapon that law enforcement does not want to see on the street.

I know all about that second amendment. And thank you kindly for giving me Christie. Just worried about what I am going to feed him. Making my husband pork chops with biscuits and cream gravy tonight. Think I would need a few more pork chops?...also, I knew all about that AK-47 too being fully automatic. Pretty good for a girl.
