Romneyisms: Christie talks doom for the US

CLICKME

And he never mentioned Bain.

Chris Wallace … Fox News son of Mike high brow, made these comments:

“I have to say, personally, I thought it was one of the most off-key keynote speeches I ever heard, ” Wallace counted pronouns, noting that Christie said the word “I” 37 times, “Romney” seven times, and “jobs” one time. [I]t seemed sometimes as if he was promoting his own candidacy more than he was Mitt Romney’s,”

Christie’s retort this morning, “I spent a lot of time talking about the speech before I gave it

I wonder whether Christie smells blood in the air over Mitt’s campaign?

because, nobody would show up,”  “I really felt that my job last night was to lay out the stakes in this election and the choice in this election. And as it turned out, with Mrs. Romney going first it freed me up — remember she was supposed to be going Monday night and because of the hurricane it was canceled — so instead both of us were on the same night.”

Wallace’s reply “If you’re explaining the day after, that’s never a good sign, Obviously he’s not going to tell stories about life with Mitt Romney, but it seemed to me he could have done a better or more effective job. What’s the central issue in this campaign? Jobs, the economy, getting it started. But he never went after Barack Obama’s economic policies. He talked about a failure of leadership. I don’t know that that’s even the right critique of Barack Obama. It seems to me, for Republicans, it’s not that he’s failed to lead, it’s that he’s led in the wrong direction.”
