I tried to tell people in town, and everywhere that he is not who he is saying he is
and to hold their noses and vote for Corzine.

He has been a bully from day one.

Though he was great during Sandy, gotta give him 1/2 credit and take away 1/2 because he vetoed the already given federal money for a new North Jersey tunnel/mass transit to the city that would have had thousands of jobs, and it is needed.
Then lo and behold, Sandy came flooded the Hudson tunnel and showed NY/NJ needs a new one, and damn, he had 100% of the funding and because he wanted to impress the tea party, he vetoed it.
That is the real Chris Christie.

It would be interesting if he wins reelection if he was offered and took a job in Hillary's administration opening up the way for a democratic take over of the governorship.

He don't worry me in the President race, he won't be nominated and if he were the VP would not win NY/NJ or any of the blue states so he really has no value presidential wise.
