LOL A few years ago he was a favorite of Democrats because he was willing to work with Obama. Now he's an idiot.

My favorite part is when Christie tells the guy he'll meet with him any time -- and never -- in the same moment.

"So, listen, you want to have that conversation later buddy, I'd be happy to have it. But until that time, sit down and shut up!"

Keady offers to meet him to talk about it later.

"I'll tell you, there's about a thousand things I'll do tonight, going to dinner with you is about number one thousand and one."

Christie's a bullying loudmouth...like all such, he's a coward too.

Unlike every other politician out there that panders to everyone.
As in tell it like it is, you mean try to talk only about oneself? All Christie cares about is Christie and he is very clear about that, and he is not ashamed of using New Jersey for any political gains.

That was a political move, nothing worse for Republicans to have a loved politician among Republicans working with the president during an election year that lead to Obama's reelection.

Actually before Sandy, I didn't really know much about Christie other than he liked to shoot his mouth off a lot. Since Sandy we have all seen how he has used that to his advantage in his reelection campaign while neglecting the people most in need after the destruction left behind. Christie has shown himself to only care about Christie and that he is willing to use his own state for any political gain.

Hope he keeps flapping his lips. Do NOT want him to even be a possibility for president. We don't need another big gov't RINO running.

Yeah, that was a pretty funny part. Someone should tell Christie when you tell someone to sit down and shut up, but you are happy to sit down at a dinner and have a conversation with them, then you should follow through with that. It looked like Christie wasn't expecting the guy to agree to a conversation over dinner and the guy called him on it.

That is a typical move from a bully to try to talk down to other people and that is all Christie does.

Well I was living in New Jersey for the past couple of years when my wife and I moved away from Oregon to live in the NYC metro for a couple of years. Bayonne, New Jersey. Got to enjoy 5 days without power.

A few years here is like being on vacation.

After you're here for a few decades then come back and talk about Jersey politics.
