What is Christie doing with an ice cream cone? The man is over 300 pounds and is average height. He is a heart attack waiting to happen. A few strolls up and down the boardwalk would have been more beneficial for him then stuffing his face and yelling at a constituent.

Ah, I see. So calling her Mooochelle and making fun of her weight is okay then. I guess that's your idea of right-wing tolerance.

I've made my decision based on Christies actions which are clearly childish. His looks are just funny.

He didn't verabally spar. He tried to tempt some random guy into an altercation while carefully balancing an ice cream cone. Dude, this is a Gov. You're minimizing like mofo.

Not minimizing anything. He confronted the person. Sorry if you you become afraid if someone walks toward you when having an argument. Also it wasn't some random guy. It was a coward who thought he was a big shot in front of a crowd.

Dude, I'm not afraid of anything. If you don't expect better from a Gov, than you've got it. If you want your elected officials to be damn near getting into physical confrontations on the Jersey Shore because somebody asked a question, then again, YOU'VE GOT YOUR MAN. Grown ups on the other hand expect more out of our elected officials than childish behavior. The Sopranos was fictional.

All I can recommend is you start saving your pennies and make a donation to the Democratic challenger in the next Gov election. Hopefully that candidate will be what you are looking for, but I am reasonably certain if he confronted a right wing heckler, you would approve.

Nah, I like my elected officials to be mature and poised, especially in public. I think Mayor Corey Booker fits that build well and will unseat Chrisite in the next election.

Hey, perhaps he will. Booker seems like a good guy. Doesn't look like the Obama administration wants him after he stood up in defense of Bain capital, huh. Booker got "bussed" rather quickly.

NJ Gov. Christie freaks out at Jersey Shore heckler | The Raw Story

Gov. Chris Christie -- Fightin' Words On the Jersey Shore [VIDEO] | TMZ.com

This guy is a potential VP selection? What an embarassment. He can't handle some random guy on the jersey shore critisizing his education policy without going at the guy like he wants to fight. I don't think Romney's even soft enough to pick this wacko. Maybe he needed a hit off that ice cream cone. He may have gone more than 2 minutes without sweets.
Anyone that shouts down some idiotic, rude liberal deserves a medal.
