Chris Christie unsure about GOP chances in governor's races across nation

“We’ve got 10 races as of this morning that are inside the margin of error and so I don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow night, but I’m hopeful and it won’t be for lack of effort from the RGA’s perspective,” Christie said, adding, “Now it’s up to the candidates.”

Christie says local issues decide state races and that elected officials serving in Washington can escape local scrutiny.

It’s the reason he gave for the possibility of the GOP losing governor's races, but winning control of the U.S. Senate — which polls indicate could happen.

“Governorships are much different than being in Washington, you know, with all due respect to the folks in Washington, most people don’t know who they are, (but), your governor, you know who he or she is,” Christie said. “So those races are always much more decided upon local issues than any kind of national wave.”

2. I do not think he is comfortable out of the spotlight, or in the spotlight if the focus is not on

And I believe he sees any campaigning for others as campaigning for himself. Perhaps he smelled a loss and did not want to be associated with it.

3. He was in PA yesterday and was calling President Obama "unpopular" while stumping for Corbett.

What I heard.. from my Philly friend.

Oh we got pics..





"They also reported that Christie was in the Philly 'burbs Sunday stumping for Corbett and he idiotically repeated the "unpopular" meme and how he was glad that the President was here for Wolf with the assumption that doing so was a losing strategy. That's how you now that the GOP continues talking to empty chairs in a world where up is down and left is right. The reality is that if this was true, Rmoney would have won PA."

4. And one wonders why Christie needs his name printed on his jacket
