Chris Christie poises the question. Actually he does more-he says no:
"I just don’t think Marco Rubio’s going to be able to slime his way to the White House,” Christie said. “He wants to put out a whole bunch of negative ads? Go ahead. I hope that he will acknowledge at some point that I couldn’t care less.”
"Christie mocked Rubio as naive in the arts of political street fighting — “He’s never been in a tough race in his life,” he said dismissively — and tore into Rubio’s work in the “Gang of Eight” on a 2013 immigration bill that has since become anathema to conservatives."
"The guy who advocated for amnesty and then ran away when the topic got too hot tells you two things: He’s not a reliable conservative, A, and, B, whenever it gets too hot, Marco turns tail and runs,” he said. “I’m not the least bit concerned that Marco Rubio will hurt me with conservatives. Marco Rubio has work himself to do with conservatives.”
"Christie’s blunt attacks on Rubio suggest he sees the senator from Florida as a clear obstacle in his bid to gain the Republican nomination. At the same time, signs of possible momentum for Christie in New Hampshire mean that he has emerged as a possible barrier for Rubio, who has no clear advantage in any of the early states."

Ahh, the Christie-Rubio cage match, it's a beautiful thing. Rubio for his part has an ad out that hits Christie on everything-yes, even Bridgegate.

And the question of Christie's exaggerations on his 9/11 experience are being raised.

However, the lies and exaggerations of Rubio not the lies and exaggerations of Christie are what is important here! LOL.
It's amazing but I've now become a serious Chris Christie Democrat. If he wins the bronze in the Establishment in NH, the Establishment is royally mangled.
Christie, probably has the least legs beyond NH so Trump Democrats need to root him on now. Heck, if I could afford my own super PAC I'd run ads myself for him in NH and attack ads on Marco Rubio.
For the GOP they need anyone to win but Christie but their ideal outcome is Rubio; it's more or less the opposite for the Trump Democrats. Anyone but Rubio, but ideally let it be Christie that wins in that lane.
Rubio really is a slimebag to, to speak quite seriously. For him to try to accuse Ted Cruz of being pro amnesty is proof that he has a true talent for dishonest mendacity even in the GOP 2016 primary, which is saying something.
