good news....I don't get Christie, his best play is to be true to his talk tough, be independent not squishy like other politicians. He would no doubt have some trouble with base in presidential primary but past IA and SC he would do fine. Instead he does scaredy cat things like this veto, Booker election weeks before state wide election etc, killing big infrastructure train station project without leaving room for renegotiating the financing etc...Christie already appointed a Muslim as a judge and said he was tired of dealing with crazies when he did it. He is the one and only Republican with enough bluster and star appeal to back down crazies in primary and get a Repub presidential candidate moderate enough to have good chance to win general election, and yet Mr. strong caves in to save himself in areas he has already lost anyways...best to keep stiff spine at that point.

While a darling of Repubs, he seems missing some political insight...it will be interesting to see him in presidential campaign.

That photo? Totally going to be the next Coney Island Hot Dog eating champ. He's been practicing, he's showing us his moves. Seriously, how good would that be for business? A one-man community revitalization project.

Oh. Did a mention he's a complete douche? I'd have more respect for him if he actually did win that stupid contest.

off subject but!
