Jumping the Whale Shark - The Devolution of Chris Christie

The Northeastern Liberal-Republicrat pathology rears its big ugly behind!

The Devolution of Chris Christie - Katie Pavlich
Feb 17, 2013


In the past few months, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has allowed his mouth to get in front of his accomplishments.
-------------------
Excerpted from Townhall Magazine's March Pavlich Dispatch installment by columinst Katie Pavlich:
I’ve never been a fan of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, but I’ve always at least respected his ability to stand up for what he believes through hard talk and tough negotiating.
Christie has credibility in some circles for getting elected as a Republican in one of the bluest states in the country. He took on the teachers’ union as soon as he took office, got Democrats and Republicans on board to put kids first and reformed the system. Christie is also famous for standing up to what he calls “idiot” reporters asking stupid questions, which at the very least is entertaining.
But lately, Christie’s big mouth has caught up with him. We saw a preview of a coming shark jump in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Instead of partnering with President Obama as a strict professional trying to get a job done, Christy gloated over Obama and all of the socalled progress being made. He walked with Obama through destroyed neighborhoods, took a bunch of photos, made promises with Obama to victims that weren’t kept and helped to neutralize all the work he had done for former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney’s campaign— while ensuring Obama’s re-election.
“The president has been all over this, and he deserves great credit,” Christie told NBC’s “TODAY” show.
