I smell a rat too. Why would Christie bother with a DEMOCRAT mayor who refuesed to endorse him? Wouldn’t it have been what all of us recognize as standard procedure for that mayor to endose his own party’s candidate?
Why would Christie’s staff have made such a bonehead move?
Think Chicago, "if they bring a knife, we'll bring a gun!"
Actually, this is pretty tame compared to the bared knuckle skirmishes in 'da old days.
