I don’t think that Christie had any choice in his response to Obama’s request to visit NJ. My guess is that Obama was invited by Menendez, who knew that he was going to be hit with news of his involvement in prostitution and was planning to do a pre-election tour with Obama.
Further, I imagine that they told Christie that if he refused to come along, they would ask Cory Booker to do the honors. Oh, the press kept the Menendez pictures to minimum, but he was there at every stop, with Chris Christie standing in the back of Obama, not along side.
Since this is a Sunday morning talk show thread, I’m curious. I haven’t watched FNS or SotU shows yet.. FTN, MTP and TW had nothing on Menendez. Only MTP even brought up Benghazi. No one mentioned Obamas ‘voting is the best revenge’ comment (were it Romney it would be billboarded as a major gaffe). I never watch CNN, I’ll be curious to see if any of those items are mentioned on Fox News Sunday?
I agree with you EVA! Christie is a buffon but he was blackmailed, bottom line!
