1. I never thought I'd be saying this, but thanks, New York Post!

...One rule, enacted in the mid-1990s, restricts Wall Street executives whose firms underwrite municipal bonds from making personal contributions of more than $250 to a governor running for federal office — or risk being banned from doing business in that state for two years. That severely limits banks like Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, and Citibank from donating to a Romney-Christie ticket if Christie remained governor because they do business with New Jersey.

The second rule, enacted in 2010, limits pension-investment advisers from making campaign donations to a governor running for federal office. That would have restricted powerhouse firms like Morgan Stanley, Lazard and Wellington Advisors from contributing, because they also do business with New Jersey.

Romney officials were wary of losing those potential donations...

So Mitt was more concerned about the donor money he wouldn't get than Christie's qualifications? And what, if anything, did Mitt promise Christie in the event that he DID lose? As they say in New Jersey, "Foo-kin-bee-YOO-ti-ful!"
