Chris Christie Congratulated Obama by Phone After Election — ‘Exchanged Emails’ with Romney

Nov. 9, 2012 12:12pm Liz Klimas

In October before Hurricane Sandy, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie criticized Obama, pointing out his “massive leadership failings” to Romney supporters in Virginia. After Sandy struck, Christie himself was seeing criticism after he praised Obama for his response to the disaster. Now, Christie has been courteous to the president again, giving him a congratulatory phone call after his re-election was announced.

Bloomberg reported Christie recalling to reporters at the National Guard Armory in Franklin Township that he exchanged pleasantries with Obama via phone after Tuesday’s results.

“We didn’t have a political strategy discussion. I said, `Congratulations on your win last night, Mr. President,’ and he said, `Thank you,’” Christie said. As for GOP candidate Mitt Romney, Christie has only connected with him via email.

“No; we exchanged e-mails last night. We haven’t spoken on the phone yet,” Christie said when asked about his contact with Romney after the election, according to Bloomberg.

Last week, TheBlaze reported that Christie might have been Romney’s first pick for vice president before he decided officially upon Paul Ryan. The report, initially by Politico, stated that there were many reasons that Christie might have fallen “further from favor in Romney’s inner circle,” including his speech at the Republican National Convention, which some thought focused more on himself and less on Romney.

Fox News reporter Rick Levanthal brought up Christie’s praise for Obama last week as well:

“While people understand your commitment to the people of New Jersey and the need to get them help, some have questioned where you are now with your endorsement of Mitt Romney.”

To this Christie said: “This is the kind of silliness that, that really drives me crazy. Listen, I was the first governor in America to endorse Mitt Romney. I endorsed him 13 months ago, I traveled all around the country for him, I raised millions of dollars for him, I spoke at literally dozens and dozens of rallies for him. And I did that because I thought when I endorsed him that he was the best person to bring America back its jobs, its economy and its greatness in the world.”

The left VILIFIED and HUMILIATED this man to death with the FAT jokes and now he’s what.. their HERO? So shallow to now see why we liked his HONESTY when they didn’t. Agree with Democrats and you’re GOLDEN, disagree and you have COOTIES! That’s how immature they act at times with the name calling and Alinsky tactics. I’m so fed up with it. GROW UP LIBERALS.

  All Christie needed to say to Oblameo was a simple,
  “Thank you for doing your job & acting responsibly, as a President should.”
  PERIOD !
  
  Flashback to the Gulf Oil Spill when Oblameo
  completely ignored Gov. Bobby Jindahl, who worked tirelessly,
  trying to take control of the situation
  with NO help from Oblameo or his Democratic administration.
  When a frustrated Jindahl finally voiced his concerns,
  they ALL gave him the cold shoulder like a bunch of thin-skinned punks.
  
  Yeah, does Christie come down hard on the Unions, etc. ?
  Yeah, has he done some good things ?
  Don’t be fooled, he is more kindred to Oblameo’s ambition & ego,
  than to the American People.
  
  Remember, he got up on the RNC Convention stage-
  conveniently forgot to talk about Romney
  & went on & on about himself, as if HE were the nominee.
  
  He may be tough but he has no class-
  the loudmouth responds to female questions,
  by roughly saying,” Listen, Sweetheart”-
  in that very condescending Tony Soprano tone.
  
  I don’t care what political persuasion the questioner is-
  it’s beneath dignity to pull that “Listen, Sweetheart” crap on anyone,
  especially in a public forum.
  
  He’s got a NASTY liberal attitude.
  He’s obsessively overweight,
  when he did an interview with his family-
  all of them ran to the dining table…a non-stop parade of porkers-
  young, morbidly obese kids.
  
  Maybe he needs Ma Michelle to come give a lecture.
  
  He’s a slob, more like Oblameo than Romney !

  Not an accurate portrayal of what happened: “Obama had called Christie to talk about the Hurricane Sandy recovery effort when the congratulatory exchange happened, a Christie spokeswoman said.”
  Christie didnt call Obama. Obama called him—-> thus Christie had to say something on the phone.
  Good reporting Blaze. Not.

  It’s obvious Christie wants something from barry. And I think it goes beyond just wanting aid for the N.J. Sandy victims. Whatever it is, he wanted it badly enough to sell out Romney and the Republican party. Calling him a RINO is even putting it nicely. He is a traitor.

Glenn, I was listening to the radio show today (Friday Nov 9, 2012) and caught the last half hour where you and the crew were discussing Gov. Christie. You called him a fat bastard and made fun of his weight. I thought we were above that? I didn’t know we stooped so low to name calling and personal attacks. I thought that was only the left. I thought we could debate the issues. I thought we could work with any American in a time of crisis. This segment made me rethink who you are as a person. It made me question why I listen to you. I seek the truth and resorting to fat jokes on a serious topic doesn’t appeal to me. I think you owe all of your listeners an apology. I think you personally should have Gov. Christie on and apologize to him on the air. WE ARE BETTER THAN THAT.

  To attack another man, simply from his lack of fitness, stemming from sour grapes alone says everything you need to know about Glenn Beck. He’s an emotional coward incapable of arguing points on facts, so instead, returns to school yard level bully tactics.

Thanking the president for visiting NJ after Sandy and showing appreciation for any disaster relief the state IS ENTITLED TO would have been sufficient. Kissing ass and fawning over Obama and Springsteen like a starstruck little girl was nothing but disgusting.

  Something has to actually be humorous for me to find it funny. Selling out, and sucking up, to the man who explicitly seeks to destroy “colonialist” America, wrecking my, and my children’s, future is an enemy in every sense of the word. Maybe you should stop laughing so much and take things a bit more seriously. Particularly things that NEED to be taken seriously.

We’ve already seen mentioned here some of the things he has said but I’ve seen a townhall vid on youtube where he and a former Seal got into it and you could see that the vid was clipped here and there to christies advantage and it ended with the Seal being escorted out of the building with christie saying to him ” Who do you think you are ?

Obama thanked Christie for stabbing Romney in the back at just the right moment. Benedict Christie will always be a backstabber in my eyes. He could have waited until after the election to brown-nose Obama for helping with the disaster. He could have waited to see if the citizens of New Jersey thought Obama deserved any credit. Most people there are wondering where the help is. Obama will pay the unions enormous amounts of money to rebuild, but the average family will see virtually none of it, and what they do get will be a long time coming.

  Christie may as well turn Dem cause he has run his course in the GOP. His fawning all over Obama did not go over at all with anyone. Hope he enjoys being Jersey Governor cause that’s as high as he goes. Unless, of course, Obama has loftier goals in mind for the Gov. Payoffs can be good. He will be welcomed with open arms as part of the donkey party. Should fit right in too.

  Spankster , how right you are. Ny and N.J. have decided to reestablish their trust in the “nanny state” on Tuesday. I sent $300.00 to the Red Cross on 9/11, and ditto during Katrina. I was about to do likewise for the people who were affected by Sandy. On second thought I decided to give my contribution to my local animal shelter instead. It’s my favorite charity because the animals have NO voice. People who put their faith in an ever encompassing big government for all their needs will get no added help from me. My taxes, which are confiscated, will have to suffice.

I think right after the new year would be a good time for you to switch parties Chris. Your career advancenment has come to a screeching halt on this side of the aisle.

  I seem to remember Beck liking Chris Christie very much so at one point.

  Beck only supported his fight against the public unions. I don’t think he ever supported him politically and called him out as a big progressive.
  
  Christie is political toast. He will take the blame for the Hurricane suffering and Obama will use his control of FEMA to ensure a Democratic victory. No one will want to tie their political wagon to this looser.

  You are correct, ILIKEPEOPLE, he was. Beck unfortunately runs more on emotions than logic at times. This is a recurring theme with him, he “likes” somebody for emotional reasons, then the reality comes out and what does Beck do? Starts name calling and insulting, just like he (rightly) notes that Alinsky-ites do.
  
  I’m not really beating up on Beck too much, at least he’s exposed a silent majority to some semblance of the word “libertarian”, but he works far too much in the emotional sphere for my comfort sometimes.

  I started not liking Christie right around the time Coulter was snuggling up to him, I never understood why people wanted him as VP.

  I understand that. That said, women also like people who are rational. Not all women are run by their hormones, as I hear.
  
  It’s not that Beck gets emotional occasionally, rather, that he does it so frequently. Nobody wants a cold stone Vulcan, but on the other hand constant emotionalism doesn’t lend much intellectual credence to his position. He needs to learn to moderate his judgements and temper his initial impulses until he has more facts on his side, sometimes. This is usually only in regards to the people he endorses more than anything else. On topics of policy his staff and him do a fair job at least trying to research and present facts as they see them.

  Anon, same reason some people like Coulter. She says snarky things about people they don’t like. I personally doubt her conservative credentials anyway. I think she has just figured out a clever way to sell books. I think she could just as easily do the same thing from the left if she thought that it was more lucrative. She is a long time friend of Bill Maher. Could you be friends with Bill Maher? I sure as hell couldn’t.

  Hi Soy –
  
  Not sure what he is – that’s the problem. He seems to kiss up to whomever he believes can lift his political career to the federal level. I’ll admit, I’m very surprised.
  
  On a lighter note – is anyone else really excited for the remake of “Red Dawn”?

  I have the old Red Dawn (netflix) at my house to watch this weekend! Need to see the original before the new one.
  
  The future is either Red Dawn or Ron Paul – i dont see any other options

rino christie deliberately out of spite and self-enrichment helped sink 100% AMERICAN Presidential Romney and in doing so he helped obama destroy America. christie will never be anything American again. people remember Benedict Arnold’s name as a traitor 236 years later, and chris christie carved his own name in stone right next to it.

Quoting Pat “FAT BASTARD” My opinion on Chris Christie is my about the same as I have for Justice Roberts….just drop the the “FAT” part. I mean the polls said 42% of the people were influenced by Sandy Christie is part of that whole optic. I think he can probably kiss hopes of 2016 …This Romney loss is a tough one to swallow not that was the conservative hope but at the least he would have stopped the bleeding.

  So any time someone disagrees with us we resort to name calling? Wow how far we’ve come. I’m on your side, at least I thought I was but now I’m starting to question our moral judgement. We have to be better than name calling.

Chris Christie. Someone who thought he could kiss Obama’s backside to help the people suffering in NJ, but it turns out he was just another one-night-stand and the people of NJ are still suffering. I wonder if he feels dirty now? Somehow I don’t think he does. After all, he still has electricity, available food and water and a way to connect with the outside world. It must be nice to be included in Obama’s harem. You Go Boy!

  Obama needed a photo op and he got one. Now he’s in Burma probably giving away more millions of dollars while our people are hurting after Sandy.

So many people are upset by the turnout of this election. All I have to say is that if you are a Jesus follower and believe the Bible to be the divinely inspired Word of God, then ALL of this makes sense. Obama was GOING DOWN. And then God allowed hurricane Sandy to come on in and Obama had a chance to look Presidential again. He savored the opportunity and made the most of it. And 2 states that had a HUGE factor in the votes: NY and NJ. Chris Christie was fooled by the enemy about Obama just as MOST people have been. But at the end of the day, God is still in control. THIS was allowed by Him, perfectly permitted so that His glory will be revealed soon. Jesus, come quickly.

  Scuba13 – Yep. His political career is toast. He will be to Sandy what GW is to Katrina. Since he praised Obama’s efforts early in the game, he can’t use FEMA as an excuse. Obama’s puppet masters set him up like a Pinnata at kids birthday party. He may have ridden in on an elephant but he’ll be leaving on a rail. Does anyone else smell tar? Another progressive Republicrat bites the dust.
