Chris Christie Called Obama To Congratulate Him, Offered Mitt Romney Condolences Over Email
The Huffington Post | By Nick Wing Posted: 11/08/2012 6:59 pm EST Updated: 11/08/2012 7:18
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) told reporters Thursday he reached out to President Barack Obama with a personal phone call to congratulate him on his reelection. Mitt Romney, the man Christie had campaigned with and raised money for, got a conciliatory email, the governor said.
“We didn’t have a political strategy discussion," Christie said of his Wednesday phone chat with Obama, Bloomberg reports. "I said, 'Congratulations on your win last night, Mr. President,' and he said, 'Thank you.'"
Asked if he'd given Romney the same treatment, Christie said that he hadn't.
“No; we exchanged e-mails last night,” Christie said, according to Bloomberg. “We haven’t spoken on the phone yet.”
There has been plenty of blame to go around after Romney's sizable defeat on Tuesday, an outcome that Republicans and Romney's campaign were quick to admit was as a huge surprise. Christie has been a favorite scapegoat among Romney supporters who claim that the New Jersey governor's public praise of Obama's handling of Superstorm Sandy damaged Romney's campaign in its last days.
Christie has rejected such criticism, maintaining that he full-heartedly supported Romney. Christie said there were no political undertones in his coordination with Obama in efforts to deal with devastation from the storm.
“My activity with President Obama was just another chapter in the leadership I’ve tried to show in this state, which is people care more about getting things done than they care about partisanship,” he said Wednesday, according to the New York Daily News.

Yeah, we all see it... Christie was obama's lapdog after the 2012 election. He didn't want Romney to win.
Repubs keep forgetting that. Christie = obama.

you'd be surprised how many people dislike obama - but love christie.
They don't even know his position on the issues, they don't care that he outright lied about some things - they just like his mean, bully attitude. To me, that's scary. A lot of bad people in history had that 'take no shit' bully attitude.

Chris Christie sours on Donald Trump
Chris Christie has pulled the welcome mat out from under Donald Trump.
In an interview with Fox News’ The Five on Wednesday, the New Jersey governor and 2016 presidential candidate was asked: If Trump wanted to bring a new casino to the Atlantic City Boardwalk, would you welcome him back? Christie’s response was clear.
“I don’t think we need more casinos in Atlantic City,” Christie said. “It’s a misunderstanding on some people’s part what happened in Atlantic City. Atlantic City built 12 casinos at a time where we were a monopoly east of the Mississippi. In the years since then, we’ve had 38 other states get casino gaming. Well, of course you’re going to need less casinos in Atlantic City. Now, I hate that any of them had to close because people lost their jobs. It’s a natural downsizing. What’s happening in Atlantic City — non-gaming revenue is going up. Gaming revenue is staying flat. Atlantic City is going to be fine over time.”
Christie’s comments come as Republicans are busy denouncing Trump for his inflammatory remarks about Mexican immigrants, whom he characterized as “rapists” and criminals, and Arizona Sen. John McCain, whom he said was “not a war hero.”
