I'll say this that in spite of us locals ridiculing him and his weight over the years, Christie in the last few days has won himself a 2nd term as Governor and may very well have planted seeds for a national run in '16 with the impression he's made for himself.
And that's what the right wingers don't get. The more they bash him and cry conspiracy and potentially pre-emptively blame him if they lose the election, the more he looks good.
Dowd wrote a NYT piece abou this.
The 'I' of the Storm“Fox & Friends” co-host Steve Doocy must have forgotten Christie’s self-regarding keynote speech at Romney’s convention, which had more “I” than “he” in it. Doocy asked Christie if there was “any possibility that Governor Romney may go to New Jersey to tour some of the damage with you?” The governor replied dismissively: “I have no idea, nor am I the least bit concerned or interested,” adding: “If you think right now I give a damn about presidential politics, then you don’t know me.”
