1. Christie's just hitching a ride on Obama's coattails.

[Logical]

3. And I have NO problem with it!

[dorkzilla]

6. Irrespective of coattail riding

Governor Sandwiches is still the Governor of a largely Democratic state. In spite of my personal feelings about the Governor I applaud him for choosing HUMANS over PARTY.

That said, i would kiss any body part of my governor, Andrew Cuomo, because he gets it. That, and every time he speaks I close my eyes and pretend its Mario Cuomo speaking.

2. Chrobama bromance

4. This is the cherry on top...

and the nail in Mitten's political coffin!

5. It's driving some of the totalitarians absolutely out of their minds

[GDoyle]

7. Its gotta be a real kick in the balls for Romney

If he had balls that is.

I mean the guy was his keynote speaker. I think Christie went thru the motions at the convention, figuring it wasn't close and Romney would lose. He played the good soldier and attacked Obama some, promoted himself a lot and barely mentioned Mittens.

When he perceived it was close, he stabbed Romney in the back and gave him a real blow politically.

And I love it. Nothing better than asshole on asshole crime.

8. Not hard to figure out

Romney wins it spoils his dream of running for President in 4 years.

[JI7]

9. pretty sure Romney made a very inappropriate request

hopefully we will hear about it once the election is over(or even before).

[justiceischeap]

10. I think so too

I think the Romney camp approached Christie for a photo op, and couched it in those terms without even asking, or maybe even suggesting, how great this disaster would be for Romney.

[sufrommich]

21. I've been wondering the same. Christie seems to be

feeling no love for Romney.

[maryellen99]

26. I just saw in a diary on Kos

That Christie did a radio interview and when asked if he heard from Romney, Christie said he hadn't heard from him since Sunday.

[sufrommich]

28. I have a feeling Romney asked for some blatant

election event using the storm as the centerpiece and maybe Christie realized what a power hungry monster Romney is. That's my hope anyway.

11. Christie is doing what a leader should do, fighting for his constituents.

Good leaders work with others, regardless of political party, and differences. I have new found respect for Christie, he is being a Lion for his state's residents, he is doing the job that they expect of him.

[former-republican]

13. Don't get too big of a crush

He's a snake and would turn on the President in a second .

[panAmerican]

15. Thank you for recognizing that

Love us or hate us, but everybody knows that Jersey doesn't go down without a fight.

[jenw2]

20. But he is hurting the Party by doing so

That's the problem.

[sufrommich]

24. I agree, he's been very impressive. Good for him. nt

[panAmerican]

12. Christie is getting us the help we need

People, please stop making fun of this; it is getting tiresome. Things are REALLY tough here for A LOT of people in New Jersey.

There are people still without adequate food and/or shelter, and with barely the clothes on their backs for posession. One of those people happens to be a lady that my Mom works with. That woman just underwent brain surgery for an aneurysm less than 2 months ago, and now her family is camped out at her sister-in-law's house.

Every time Christie wants to call the President is fine by me. And if that buys Christie another 4 years as our governor, then it will be well-deserved.

[Honeycombe8]

17. Yes, he is. He's doing the job he was elected to do. Sounds like he's doing an excellent job.nt

[Bucky]

14. I was happy & amused about Christie for a while. But he's starting to creep me out now.

It's like having a friend who happens to know the age-of-consent laws for all 50 states. At some point, some point soon, the quirky amusement of it all starts to wear off...

[Honeycombe8]

16. He's brave. He's going to face the wrath of millions of Repubs when Obama wins. nt

[Wellstone ruled]

18. Amazing,

the GOPers eating their young. Loven it,said this would happen. Obama!Obama!!!

[sasha031]

19. I love this, hope Christie turns Democrat

the pic is priceless, he's doing this to help his state.
I'm hoping this hurricane has change him for the best.

[Barack_America]

22. Possibly. I'm sure he sees his party is dying. nt

[WinkyDink]

23. Agreed. I really think the Gov. has had an epiphany about his crappy Party and Romney's plans.

[cyglet]

27. Probably

has no choice in the matter at this point.

[Strelnikov_]

29. He has to now. Think the baggers ain't gonna primary him.

I mean, christ, if Bennett and Lugar were not ideologically pure enough . . .

what's gonna be the reaction to working with and saying good things about the Kenyan Marxist Fascist Muslim (did I leave any out?).

[TDale313]

25. One of those times when...

The right thing to do and the politically shrewd thing are probably the same, which is fine. I really don't care why Christie has been doing what he's been doing. People in NJ need help, and he and Pres Obama are working together to get it to them. Good on 'em.

30. Cory Booker, challenging Christie in 2013, opened up his house to victims

While Christie poses on Marine 1 with the POTUS and looks like a disaster hero.

Never forget, he's a Republican. It takes a certain type of person to be one of those.

Christie sees a chance to win in a Dem state - to one extent or another.
Who knows, maybe he got religion.

[Proles]

31. Lol, maybe it's Stockholm Syndrome or something. He realizes only the Federal government

can truly help, so he has a new found love for it and Obama.

Seriously though, I think Christi just doesn't like Romney. He probably saw his posturing during that "donate cans of soup event" and got turned off by it.

Generally speaking, Christi isn't the worst of the republicans (I remember him sticking up for that Muslim judge), and I don't doubt that he cares about his state, but he's still a bully -- and I would never hesitate to vote him out in favor of a Democrat (I happen to live in NJ right now).
