Maddow on Christie's Branding: Selling Rudeness

by: Rosi Efthim

Thu Jun 30, 2011 at 12:14:19 AM EDT



For your late-night viewing pleasure, here's a clip from Tuesday morning when Rachel Maddow guested on the Today Show, in case you missed it (I did). We get Maddow summing up the 2012 presidential contenders, wannabes and shouldn't be's, and she gets to our governor at around the 1:50 mark. Maddow says Christie is auditioning for VP, and doing a great job of selling what he has to sell. And what is that?

Rachel Maddow Nailed Christie WIth The Truth (0.00 / 0)
Of course WE all pretty much saw through Christie's con job from the start.

Under the guise of "toughness" Christie is just a rude bully.  He is a clever con man....but that's all he is.

Christie's "appeal" is driven by fear, greed and a kind of cruelty that contaminates the human spirit.  At the core Christie's power comes from a corruption of the good.

Having said that, my conclusion is that, in his own mind, he believes his own self serving bs.......he truly feels justified on his "mission", he has conned himself!!!  That's what makes this clever and talented fellow truly dangerous.

Sadly...tragically, with the exceptions of Loretta Weinberg and a handful of real NJ Democrats...there has been little substantial opposition from our majority party.   So, hey, Democrats.....here's Maddow nailing Christie for you........do you get it now???  Or is it that you've given up?  Or worse, sold out?


He's trying to be an articulate (0.00 / 0)
Tony Soprano because that's what Karl Rove believes will sell. He makes us all look bad. A Rove/Norcross puppet, nothing more or less.
Funny, the woman he chastised, Gail, didn't criticize him about sending his kids to private school, just that he was taking resources from public schools.
Christie attacked an issue that wasn't raised by the citizen. To date, no one has called him on that.
The bombastic blowhard sounds like a professional wrestler because that sells to the knuckle dragging Republican base.  

Restore democracy and the Constitution for which it stands.
