WELL, THE GOVERNOR IS KNOWN FOR HIS CANDOR:
Chris Christie: Newt Gingrich an 'embarrassment' to Republican party (BLOOMBERG NEWS, January 22 2012)
New Jersey Republican Governor Chris Christie, who endorsed Romney in October, said today Gingrich humiliated the party when he was House speaker, citing Gingrich's $300,000 payment to resolve allegations of giving misleading information in a 1997 ethics probe."He was run out of the speakership by his own party," Christie said on NBC's "Meet the Press" program. "This is a guy who has had a very difficult political career at times and has been an embarrassment to the party."
