Report: White House officials digging up dirt on Christie

Officials from President Obama's re-election campaign are reportedly digging up dirt on Gov. Chris Christie in the event that he runs for president.
Christie has repeatedly said he has no intentions of making a presidential run, but White House officials are conducting research on anyone who might be a strong candidate, according to The New York Post.

A Christie spokesman has told the paper that opposition research is "an acknowledgment that Christie is a bold leader, successfully taking on big challenges as governor."

Whatever the White House is doing, the more they shovel on Christie, the happier we'll be.

1. In my experience you don't have to dig far with most Republicans. nt

2. Or there's the GOP side, where "opposition research" mean "making up dirt."
