I've read that a blogger - a liberal - who was seated next to Christie says this description of the incident is a load of hokum. He just got on the wrong car. When he discovered he was on the wrong car, he moved.

GOP presidential candidate and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie had to leave an Amtrak “quiet” car for talking on his cellphone Sunday morning, shortly after boarding a north-bound train from Washington, D.C.
A fellow passenger told the website Gawker that Christie boarded the 9:55 a.m. train at the last minute and had a loud discussion with his two-man security detail about seating, then had an “intense” talk on his cellphone before being approached by a conductor.
The conductor purportedly asked Christie, known for his bombastic manner, to either concluded the call or move to a talking-permissible car.
Campaign official Samantha Smith acknowledged the incident but said Christie mistakenly sat in the no-talking car “on a very full train” and apologized for the mistake and inconveniencing fellow passengers

Hmmm. I had forgotten all about him.
I bet he got real quiet when his Cowboys lost to the Giants.
Hahahahahaha
Wow. You’re right. That is disturbing!
It was an honest mistake. He apologized and moved.
That’s the Secretary of State’s line.If you actually read the article before posting, you learn that the conductor simply pointed out to Mr. Christie that it was a quiet car. The governor apologized - and moved out of that car.
There is a world of difference between “Do you know who I am?” and “Sorry - I’ll change cars."
Whether I would vote in the primary for Governor Christie, or not.
I would pay more for a quiet restaurant. A shame to wear earplugs into a fine restaurant...but I do. Why do people across a room shout at each other? Why can’t they hear one another from 3 feet distance?
