Because Barack Obama is a good man. Christie might vote for Mittens to keep in line with his party but I think in his heart, he knows the better man. And I hope Christie's increased humanity leads him to realize how you treat others is a big part of life. I find myself not disliking him these days.

You don't have to answer to anybody for your private vote.

and apparently Springsteen was very gracious as well. I'm glad Christie finally got to meet his favorite musician. Now that he's had a chance to hang out with some great Democrats, let's hope he rethinks some of his political positions. I'm not holding my breath, though.

a simple question.

So far I like the new Christie, time will tell if that has leggs

that's what I took away from the Springsteen incident.

"I saw Chris Christie jiggling in the wind" :^)

I wonder if by chance Pres. Obama knows Roger Waters and could arrange a meeting or at least a phone call to me from Roger.

suggests to me that internal statistics show Obama will win.

Christie is going to need to be in the good graces of the next administration in D.C. because that administration will be organizing the relief effort for New Jersey after this storm.

Chris Christie is not a stupid man -- disgusting, yes -- insulting, yes, yes -- a bully, yes, yes, yes -- but not stupid.

We're not seeing any of the partisan crap that you saw with the Katrina response. That is a very good thing.

is still to be known. I think it is remarkable that the keynote speaker of the Rethugs convention who is known for speaking his mind, (however crudely and blusterly) is now a BIG fan of the President and has no hesitation in saying so. He was even forced to "re-declare" for Robme and still managed not to sound enthusiastic. No love lost there. He does not apologize for recognizing the leadership and commitment the President gave to the crisis. He knew he wasn't alone in the storm. He knew just how much he needed Big Government to help. This will probably make him a much better and more reasonable politician for the future. It really has been a life altering event for him.

I like what is happening and I am glad he got to meet "The Boss!"
