Just in Case You Want Another Reason not to Like Chris Christy

     Turns out he's a Dallas Cowboys fan and a really annoying, obnoxious one at that. Yesterday he was just begging for a hug in the owner's box with Jerry Jones. Supposedly seeing him at a football game is supposed to impress us with what a regular guy he is but how many regular guys do you know that Jerry Jones would allow into his box? Still, Christy looked pretty pitiful.

     Turns out the similarities between him and Rush Limbaugh are more than just skin deep too as like Rush, Christy has a really annoying younger brother.

      Todd Christy made fun of 'teams from South Jersey' who aren't great like the Dallas Cowboys. He knocks the Giants for missing the playoffs for '4 straight years' which is actually quite wrong. He claims to be a Giants fan but as a Giants fan myself I don't get how he doesn't realize they actually won the Super Bowl in 2011-which is 4 years ago. The Giants have won 2 SBs since Dallas last won one all the way back in 1995.

      I really find it very interesting that many still think that Christy is a viable Presidential candidate. I don't like Jeb Bush either-in all honesty I'm a Democrat, I don't like any Republicans or at least I see almost any Democratic candidate as superior to any GOP candidate for President or most higher office.

     Still, Jeb seems to me to be the much better candidate vs. Christy. I don't see how any candidate who runs against him doesn't salivate over Bridgegate.

      Overall, I think that Christy is just a big old sitting duck at this point. His negatives are just too high no matter what positives he's alleged to have. He's just got a big glass jaw: he's a bully, he intimidates political opposition, he shows contempt for those who disagree with him, he picks on people who asks him questions he doesn't happen to like, and yes, he's very corrupt.

      Then there was Tentgate.

     That's assuming he doesn't get indicted himself. Jeb Bush I think may come across as pretty likable. Christy might get some points for 'speaking his mind' but there is a fine line between 'being a straight shooter' and just an insensitive bully and he's way over that line. My guess is he won't get much traction-Jeb will easily pummel him if he runs.
