Apparently, his mother was referring to women and how they treat themselves. But Gov. Christie parlayed it beautifully into how politicians are acting today. It's easy to be loved in the short-term. Simply promise the world to your constituents. You earn their respect by crunching the numbers, telling it to them straight, devising a plan to navigate the stormy seas ahead, and leading them through it!

I LOVE chris christie. he is doing amazing things for the state of new jersey, and he won't let any libs stop him.

We need more adults in our country. People who are willing to make the hard choices knowing they are doing the right thing regardless of what people may say about them.

It was a really good point Christie made. And Ann Romney was phenomenal! What a wonderfully classy, intelligent lady! But I am so conflicted about this election. We (our country) absolutely CANNOT tolerate another four years of that arrogant ... man occupying the White House. But I see Romney as one more big government elitist who will continue the erosion of our liberties and freedom and keep us in perpetual wars to fuel the military-industrialists, but do it just a bit more slowly. Perhaps the "slowly" part can serve to buy us more time to get our message out to the masses. That's why I have reluctantly decided to cast my vote for Romney/Ryan, though I wish Ron Paul had been nominated. If you haven't seen "2016: Obama's America", please do.

So true! And a fun lesson to learn.

Is there further context to this quote? On its own, it doesn't make sense to me.
