My friend is a non-conservative, non-neocon, non-Tea Party republican. She loves Christie. Loves it when he tells people to shut up. Loves how he's so Jersey. I'm sure she's fine with him calling the doctor who made an assessment about his health and telling her to shut up.

Christie is colorful and unlike the other republicans. I'm sure that shtik is going to get votes, but how many? I can't be sure.
