The real reason Christie was nice to Obama....backstage pass to meet the Boss.

of course I have no idea what I'm talking about but I bet you a buck the Boss invites him backstage at his next concert. The one after we win.

Christie is such a fan and has complained about not getting to meet the Boss. Yesterday Bruce said something nice about Christie. Not a bromance but at least a hand shake.

I'd be nice to Obama for a backstage pass to meet the Stones. (Of course. . . I'd be nice to Obama because I like him. As Mom would say "we don't deserve him. He's too good for this ungrateful country.&quot

The great Sarah Chang, who was appointed by Obama to the Presidential Commission on Russian Relations, and who is an official State Department Special Cultural Envoy in the Obama administration. Ms. Chang was accepted to study violin at the age of five at the prestigious Julliard school of music. At five, she was already a violin virtuoso.

Ms. Chang has now been added to my list of must-listen-to artists. She is amazing!

At age eight she made her concert debut as a soloist with the New York Philharmonic and at age nine she graduated from Julliard. Here's a vid of this amazing American virtuoso at age 12 performing Paganini, a challenge for any violinist.

but can't say I trust Christie long term, what has he done but hurt teachers and reject stimulus for transportation that would help all New Jersians.

Springsteen knows who is being sincere and who isn't. Christie isn't usually sincere. For one rare shining moment, he doesn't look like a dick. And Springsteen will think so too.
