| Remember back in the 1990s the horror at Al Gore using the private residence phones at the White House to call donors? Or Bill Clinton allowing donors to stay in the Lincoln bedroom (which Reagan, Bush and Bush all did as well)?
Well, now our own Chris Christie is using the public facility provided for New Jersey governors to host political fundraisers from out of state who are trying to convince him to run for President.
A team of Iowa businessmen will fly by private jet today to meet with New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), who has steadfastly refused to run for president "but agreed to have dinner with them in the governor's mansion," the Des Moines Register reports.
"The heavy hitters' journey is being closely watched by political operatives across the nation who read it as evidence of Republican discontent in the lead-off voting state with the developing field of GOP hopefuls -- and a sign that Christie's resistance might crack."
Make of this what you will, but at least Christie is 100% focused on the business of New Jersey. |
