Christie just barely beat incumbent Jon Corzine in 2009, who was very unpopular because of the state's high property taxes, and a representative of Goldman Sachs. I read about that election quite a bit, and Christie had basically campaigned as a moderate who had washed New Jersey clean of corrupt politicians and embezzlers as a federal prosecutor. But do you really think he is pandering to the left? He has a 74% approval rating because he did such a good job of getting the Garden State evacuated and cleaned up after Hurricane Sandy. How does that put him out in left field?
I guess I will have to correct myself in this regard and accept your version as the right one.
It seems that in todays american political arena, talking and shaking hands with a democrat makes a republican a leftist or poundering to the left.
Which shows how much the tea party fucked the political arena.
I guess I can simply say that he is a reasonable person who appeals to the reasonable middle.
Quote:In regards to the communist allegations, can you please elaborate on how this individual is a communist? Does he want to take away our houses and nationalize farms? Does he want the government to own everything, including your toothbrush?
hat the state has the right to tell you where you can live, where to work and almoust everything. He thinks North Korea is an awsome place which is supirior to South Korea. He also believes in conspiracy theories and watches Iranian state propaganda TV. And to him every newssource other than Iranian TV is propaganda.
And if you disagree with him in a debate, he will simply accuse you of being a nazi.
I dont think there is a member on this forum whom he hasn`t accused of being a nazi yet.
