I really wonder what the republican party expected from Christie considering the circumstances of the praise he gave Obama. Should he have not declared his state under an emergency and not paved the way for Federal Level aid to come in? Should he have told Obama to take his 'handout money' and, with all due respect, GTFO? Should he have taken the money but then given Obama the cold shoulder while he visited?
Or was it the fact that he was so positive towards Obama in an election year and so close to election day?
I think he did best by the people of the state he governs, who should be and are his primary political concern, not the republican party itself. He did right by the people who elected him and end up getting called a traitor and distanced by prominent members of the party and the pet news service that were so in love with him. Love is such a fickle thing in politics.
