Christie's office accuses Jersey City mayor of 'partisan politics'

The feud between Gov. Chris Christie and Jersey City Mayor Steve Fulop kicked into higher gear today, with a Christie spokesman accusing the mayor of engaging in “partisan politics.”

Colin Reed, a Christie spokesman, today blasted Fulop, hours after the mayor released emails and text messages that back up the mayor’s contention that state officials canceled a series of meetings it set up with Fulop last July.

Fulop, a Democrat, says the meetings were canceled because he told Christie’s allies he wouldn’t be endorsing the Republican governor’s reelection bid.

........................................



“Mayor Fulop’s words and actions must be viewed through the lens of partisan politics and his attempt to advance his own personal agenda,” Reed said in a statement. “Fulop’s relationship over time with both the governor and Democrats in the legislature has been inconsistent as he has made clear his future political aspirations.”

No wonder they're trying to deflect blame.
