Gov. Christie Is In A Difficult Spot - This May Show His True Colors

[jem]

I agree he is spending 25 million instead of waiting a few weeks.
its actually rather disgusting waste. Typical politician.

Quote from AAAintheBeltway:

I wonder if he'll use some of the Sandy money to pay for the special election?

Basically, he is pissing away 25 mill to enhance his own chances of reelection. A pol would see that as a good trade since it is not his money he is spending.

I am confused how anyone would see this as doing the people's work, etc.
