I have given a name to my pain and it is Chris Christie. A week before the election and Mitt Romney had all the momentum. And then the hurricane hit and NJ Governor Chris Christie essentially becomes mentally unbalanced and runs a freaking commercial for Obama and extolling him for doing such a fantastic job when he actually hadn’t done anything.
Oh wait, he put him on the phone with Bruce Springsteen and made Christie weep. So for that, Christie raves about Obama. The most important election was decided because a weird governor got to talk to his rock star idol. Wow. Just wow.

The traumatized state of New Jersey ought to be given to Romney. Informed consent from the people with post traumatic stress syndrome cannot be legal. Unless Gd has other plans for Obama, the baby butcher.

Unless God has other plans for Obama, the baby butcher. It is simply that I cannot type.

I don't see how you can assume the abortion situation would have gotten any better under Romney.
He was remarkably circumspect in how he would improve anything, and it did make me wonder- maybe he had some super-secret Mormon plans that would make the normal Christian voter a little upset.

Troll was under a rock yesterday. Didn't see the Black Panthers, the broken machines, the flying voters and those who voted from someone else not to mention the zombies who were over 125 yrs. old.

Romney's loss is not Christie's fault. The governor of a devastated state is supposed to play politics when the president shows up? Please, Matt. Just stop. Your ire is misplaced. Its belongs to the RNC. They gave us a candidate who couldn't win. AGAIN. Ryan/Rubio or Rubio/Ryan 2016!

Romney Schmomney…the die was cast the second the fake "dangling chad" crap in Florida was ginned up to force electronic voting/vote stealing machines on the country. Come now – why do you think the demoncrats were so insistent on implementing voting by computer? Of course, the wimpy Republicans rolled over and took that. I know there are a lot of dense people, but the opposition to obummer was so strong that regardless of who the Repubs put up OB was going down…unless, of course, certain key areas of the country could be assured to go to him because of the simplicity of having digital voting on chips that can be easily swapped out for whatever result the powers-that-be want. I for one have voted for the last time. I just won't participate any longer in the charade. Put a fork in the country: it's done.

Anonymous #2, I am not "The Masses." Take that patronizing drivel somewhere else.

Anonymous @ 7:31 (immediately above), if you are one of those who always votes for the GOP nominee no matter who it is (and eats the vomit the GOP establishment serves you), then yes you are one of the "masses." Trying to put me in my place and react as if you have been insulted doesn't change this reality. The truth shouldn't be disregarded to spare feelings in a case like this.

I stand with Matthew on this one. While I don't believe that Romney lost the election because of Christie, he (Christie) certainly didn't help Romney's cause by serving as Obama's lap dog and creating photo-ops for him. Even Mayor Bloomberg declined to have Obama visit NYC amidst the hurricane aftermath, saying that it would be a distraction from the work that had to be done.
To top it off, Obama, has the audacity to say, "We don't turn back. We leave no one behind." Somehow, he couldn't offer those same words to those calling out to him for help in Benghazi.
