but I think it's very poor form for a journalist to berate the voters for simply casting votes for the candidate of their choice. This guy comes off as holier-than-thou and believing that he has the right to tell others how to cast their votes. The time for his sermonizing was before the election. Now he's he's just whining.

As for Christie being president - never gonna happen.
