I despise Christie, but I will give credit where credit is due. NJ was hurting after Hurricane Sandy. Christie sucked it up and posed with Obama for the feel good photo ops after he accepted federal aid that his state needed. I'm sure it hurt Christie in GOP circles, but he did right by the people he represented.

As an NJ resident, I agree with you about his response to Hurricane Sandy, but if by some miracle he becomes the Republican nominee, he may beat Biden but not carry our state. Many of us will never forget his causing our State Parks to be closed for a holiday due to his budget brinksmanship - and then get photographed lounging on one of the closed beaches.
I mean, he *is* an asshole, but he is an asshole who believes in democratic norms. Strange bedfellows and all that, but I won't lie in bed awake in November if he was elected president.
I agree that overall he's rotten. However, on one occasion he put the Stat's needs over his own. Sadly, that makes him a small minority in the current GOP.

Or Bridgegate for that matter...:)

That was not one of his better moments. I was actually surprised he could be that stupid.
