I Don't Get It - It Seems Like The Dem Talking Heads Are All Talking Up Chris Christie.....

I know they are doing it because of the internal Repug Party war and because the likes of Limbaugh and Hannity dumping on Christie and that they want to illustrate how screwed up the Repug Party is internally.

Saying things like "Why can't the Party rally around the Repug Governor that won in a landslide".

What bothers me though is that in the process of saying things like this and that Christie is probably the Repugs best chance in 2016 because he appeals to some Dem voters - that they look and sound like they are promoting Christie and giving him more of the spotlight than he deserves.

It's almost like the Repugs have planned it this way in hopes that if the MSM and the Dem talking heads keep talking up Christie - that it could subliminally help both them and Christie in 2016.

One would think that these Dem talking heads would concentrate on talking about the success the Dems had in this election all around the country - but instead they are focusing most of their attention on Christie and the Repugs.
