On eve of CPAC, Romney huddled with Christie
According to Republican insiders, the pair had dinner in Boston on Wednesday, March 13. They reportedly talked about politics, Romney’s presidential campaign, and Christie’s upcoming reelection. CPAC, the Conservative Political Action Conference, also came up. Romney flew to Washington, D.C., the following day to speak at the event, which snubbed the New Jersey governor.
The conversation, sources say, was warm and friendly. Friends of both Republicans say they are closer than most people realize.

Not me, that’s for sure.

I’d bash Christie before I’d bash Romney.
And the funny thing is, I was supporting Christie over Romney during the primaries.

Thanks for helping me lose to Obama Chris, I really was worried there at the end that the morons might actually make be president. Anyways, it was a great roller coaster ride. I will be there for you in 2016 to help you prevent a conservative from saving this nation.

When dinner was over, did Christie finally take his knife out of his back?
Seriously, I’ve stuck up for Romney through it all, but this makes him look like a chump.

Both of you summed up my feelings on this quite well.

Just like how you helped prevent a conservative from saving the nation in 2012.

I wasn’t aware there was a conservative running against Obama. Just Romney (
DR-MA) and a few libertarian/Green Party kooks.gryphon202 on March 19, 2013 at 10:45 PM
