Here's why NJ Dems wanted him gone, from them(copied below):
Christie opposes abortion rights and closed six Planned Parenthood clinics.
He vetoed marriage equality.
He vetoed a surtax on millionaires.
He has retreated on climate change.
And he removed the only black justice from the state Supreme Court.
Meet Sen. Barbara Buono, the only Democrat willing to fight Christie/
My governor O Malley would NEVER do those.
That’s a list! On the other hand, hasn’t been rather soft on Islam? Didn’t he reject signing on to fight obamacare?
Didn’t he acquiese to gay marriage?
Hence my point; a friend to many....
I don’t see him as a man of principle. If it turns out I’m in incorrect, I am sure time will tell.
