Christie is corrupt.  That is all you need to know.

Christie is corrupt.  That is all you need to know.

Christie is a Bill Clinton style politician. Everything is negotiable, and nothing is off the table, as long as Chris Christie benefits from it.

More liked Obama than Bubba.   He's a bully with no conscience at all.

That's not "beauty." That's a man who has failed to make it clear what (if anything) he actually stands for.

He's right. I look at him today and see one thing. Then he speaks or does something and I see him entirely differently.

Whatever it is, it ain't beautiful. I'd call it flip flop.

Whenever a politician calls himself a "common  sense conservative" what he really means is he is "not a conservative." Ditto "compassionate conservative."
