Chris Christie. He's the only one that doesn't know it.
It does remind me of the children's book..."The Emperor's New Clothes"
If you're not familiar with the story...it's Hans Christian Anderson so it's very old, here it is. It nails Christie, but also shows that there is nothing new under the sun.

...over and over again over the next 2 1/2 years, because that's plenty o'time for the Repubs to rehab the image of Gov. Crispy Creme.
He's down, and the Dems need to make sure he stays that way. He's all they've got.
