Exactly. This is the lesson. In a significant way Christie contributed to the reelection of ‘the one’, and his attempt to appeal to false moderates has gained him nothing, while hurting the rest of us significantly. What was the point? The left will take what you give them, use it, and then go after you anyway.
I guess the other question that comes up is, ‘did the left know about Christie's vulnerabilities prior to the 2012 election, and did this play a role in convincing him to play nice with Obama?’. Who knows.

Excellent question!
