Cake Boss endorses Christie: just might be the icing on the cake

HOBOKEN -- An endorsement popped out of the oven today, as Hoboken's celebrity baker, "Cake Boss" Buddy Valastro Jr. threw his support behind Gov. Chris Christie for re-election.

Joined by the Republican governor in front of Carlo's City Hall Bake Shop on Washington Street, Valastro said this is the first time he's ever endorsed a politician.

"I've been so impressed with what he's done for the state. Before Christie took office, small businesses were suffering," said Valastro. "I can't tell you how much of an improvement I have seen since he was governor." .

Christie said if re-elected, he plans to lower taxes further for small business and limit regulations.

"These are the folks that create jobs; jobs are the heart and essence of what will get this economy going again," said Christie, who is being challenged in the November election by Democratic state Sen. Barbara Buono.

I wonder if Cake Boss has taken a stand on providing cakes for same sex marriages.

I would think Christie’s intake of pastries alone would cause a boom for this guy’s business.

I am rather impressed that anybody with a TV show is Republican. It is easier to have a Republican become conservative than a Democrat become conservative.
