Well, he did say this-

"My approach would be, as the executive, is to call in the leaders of the Congress, the legislature, whatever you're dealing with, and say we're not leaving this room until we fix this problem, because I'm the boss. I'm in charge"

which kinda sounds like an Obama slap.

If Obama gets on T.V. and says, "I'm the boss.", the right would go berserk and hell would break loose.

Wouldn't it?

Probably. Christie never suggested he get on TV and say it.

Post 302, above.

It's easy for Christie to talk, I'll observe....

Soon Christie will be the head of the GOP

if he still wants it.

It would not kill him to support Obama now and be the voice of reason.
He has to carry moderates in 2016 and with the base of the GOP sinking that ship Christie has to reach out to the center big time

I doubt that Christie could survive the Wild West roadshow of the Republican primaries in the presently insane political climate of the Tea party screamers.

Well put, but methinks their goose is cooked next year.
