He's a politician made in New Jersey, without a doubt. He's Republican Governor Chris Christie. Tracy Smith tracked him down for some Questions-and-Answers:
Watch Chris Christie work the crowds at the Jersey shore, and he may look like your typical glad-handing politician. But the New Jersey governor would be the first to tell you -- proudly -- there's nothing typical about him.
"I'll tell you what I think most American politicians sound like -- and more important, what I think what citizens think, remember Charlie Brown's teacher? Wah, wah, wah, wah. It all sounds the same, and you can't really understand what it is? No one says that about me. Nobody says that about me."
And if they did, he probably wouldn't let them get away with it.
As the Republican governor of a heavily-Democratic state, he can be abrasive. He seldom minces words, or spares feelings. Words he has used to describe people include "idiot," "stupid," "jerk," and "crazy."
"Are these words that a person in your position, a leadership position, should be using?" asked Smith.
"Sure," Christie replied. "Absolutely."Read the rest HERE and watch the (PUFF PIECE) interview below:
