Christie's plan for tomorrow should be revenge for the grievance from yesterday.

Oh, and FOAD Chris Christie.

He wants the GOP to go back to assisting the Democrats.


Yep, Uniparty forever! It has been good for Christie, just not so good for Americans.

Christie has been a traitor to the GOP ever since Obama promised him free buffet for life.

Things have changed. Dems are Collectivists and the Republican voting base is more distinctly pro Bill of Rights. Someone should let the Guv know this.
