I can see it now...

The Republican candidates running for President have a debate in Iowa...

Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, and Huckleberry, and a couple of others...

One of the candidates disagrees with Chris Christie about the Ebola virus reaction.

Christie gets angry and tells him to shut up and sit down. A hush falls over the crowd. After all, it was OK when he was doing it to those liberals carrying signs at his press conference. But this was different. Now he was telling other Republicans to sit down and shut up.

Republicans will not see any problems with Christie's anger issues until he takes it out on them. Then all hell will break loose.

creepy to me (in addition to the creepiness of Christie himself in that incident) was that once Christie tells the guy to "sit down and shut up", most of the crowd CHEERS!

Creep Factor: 10!

a liberal but an independent who had been one of the Sandy rescuers and rebuilders. What he said to him about rolling up his sleeves and working as hard as he did was doubly odious.
