Republicans still furious at Chris Christie for being governor
On Nov. 3, Mr. Christie called Rupert Murdoch, the influential News Corporation chief and would-be kingmaker, who had warned in a biting post on Twitter that the governor might be responsible for Mr. Obama’s re-election.
Mr. Christie told Mr. Murdoch that amid the devastation, New Jersey needed friends, no matter their political party, according to people briefed on the discussion. But Mr. Murdoch was blunt: Mr. Christie risked looking like a spoiler unless he publicly affirmed his support for Mitt Romney, something the governor did the next day.
Given what had just happened to his state, you might think Republicans would have cut Christie a little bit of slack—and that Christie would have had better things to do than trying to respond—but if so, you'd be wrong.
But in the days after the storm, Mr. Christie and his advisers were startled to hear from out-of-state donors to Mr. Romney, who had little interest in the hurricane and viewed him solely as a campaign surrogate, demanding to know why he had stood so close to the president on a tarmac. One of them questioned why he had boarded Mr. Obama’s helicopter, according to people briefed on the conversations.

Christie did the right thing for his state and asked for some help, just as the other governors did too! Amazing, there where rich people who where devastated also, and the right wingers could cared less and blamed the loss on a natural disaster and Christie!
