I think that it could be somewhat risky to go against the Iraq war in the Republican primary, but arguing that he wouldn't have gone to war against Afghanistan has to be too far. Christie responded with an emotional response. about not knowing for about 5 hours if his wife was dead or alive. ( From information in NJ papers, his wife worked for Cantor Fitzgerald which had some offices on a high floor and lost many employees. She worked near, but not in the towers. He spoke of going to many funerals and having lost friends - given where his wife worked, I have no doubt that this was an honest statement.)
