"New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie spoke with President Barack Obama on the phone after his reelection and congratulated him but has only emailed with Mitt Romney."

1. The man isn't stupid

He knows where his state's disaster relief is coming from. Besides, I don't think he ever liked Romney to begin with. At the time of the RNC, I thought his keynote speech was an outright diss to Romney. He talked about America needing someone who told the truth, what he really believed, rather than what was popular. No one could accuse Romney of that.

2. Maybe

He should come on over to the enlightened side.

4. I was secretly hoping he would like it so much better on our side that he would want to change

parties, if only to get away from the disgusting rethuglicans...you can only take so much...

3. But it was a collect call

5. I still don't like Christie, but he may have inadvertently saved his political career.

He's still an asshole, but by admitting Obama helped out NJ, he also showed that there's at least a little bit of "human" left in him. I'm going to quit with the doughnut jokes about him. He might just have a place in society.

6. Heard this earlier, Christi has served his purpose quite nicely. n/t
