Chris Christie Criticizes Heidi Heitkamp's Brother... Brother Flattens Christie!!

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/07/chris-christie-heidi-heitkamp_n_1946175.html?utm_hp_ref=politics

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) is under attack from North Dakota Democrats after criticizing talk show host Joel Heitkamp, the brother of Democratic U.S. Senate nominee Heidi Heitkamp, during a rally Saturday in Fargo.

Christie was campaigning on behalf of Rep. Rick Berg (R-N.D.), who is challenging Heidi Heitkamp for the state's open Senate seat. Christie was told that Joel Heitkamp, a former state senator, had said negative things about him on his statewide political talk show.

“First of all, Joel, if you’re watching, I don’t give a damn what you think of me," the Fargo Forum reported Christie as saying.

Christie's comments drew quick criticism from Joel Heitkamp, who told the Associated Press he wasn't surprised that Christie had targeted him.

"I don't know if he's been going to Dale Carnegie classes, but after that flop at the Republican convention, I'm sure he has been working on his speeches," Heitkamp said. "What a better way to recover from that than to go after the No. 1 talk show host in the region."
