New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is painting himself as a political outsider, piling on congressional Republicans for refusing to fight for conservative causes.
They told us if they got a Republican majority in the Senate, they would change things, Christie said at the Heritage Action Take Back American presidential summit in Greenville, S.C., on Friday. In 2010, they told us if they got a Republican majority in the House, they would really be able to stir things up.
What Ive found is that those folks go down to Washington, and they seem to get amnesia, he added. They forget about all the stuff they said to us back here, and they get down there.
Christie said he is willing to reach across the aisle to get things done, but Republicans in the House and Senate are giving in to Democrats without getting anything in return.
Im not somebody who opposes compromise, but I oppose capitulation, and thats capitulation, he said.

Hello Folks The Donald Here :
Basting the pork thats all it was !
Did you notice the bottom line- Christie is up from 1.2% to 1.5 percent !
Rudy here folks:
Thats my boy Chrissie ,he delivered the bell ringer ,he's on a roll ! I have to say I'm a really great coach. He knows the big number and he knows how to use it . He has taken my coaching advice to heart,he knows, it's not about polls ,it's about polarity !
Thats my boy, he reminds me of me !
Brian here folks :
I understand Christie's problem ,I know he is desperate, and I know the wall he/they built around him is crumbling away ,soon to fall apart. And I know the last thing on his mind as a desperate man caught up in the high stakes of the political arena is, remaining there fully exposed ,naked in the eye of the public . when those lies are uncovered than subtracted from his position in it ,all that remains is the fact that he is nothing more than a lier.
But there is hope for him because there is a place for him on my new show in the special segment called Brian's corner.
It's a safe corner where a lier who has changed can talk about that lier who no longer exists in a truth tellers way .
It's not about polarity, it's about ratings !
