Governor Awesome and the little truant kid
There are natural politicians, and Chris Christie is one of them...
Politics is definitely a profession for those people who like people.
Given all the times I have seen him in front of an audience, it might be said of Governor Christie that he is in perpetual campaign mode, which reminds me of the POTUS.
A difference between the POTUS version of perpetual campaigning and the Governor Christie version of perpetual campaigning is that the Governor has more unscripted moments with constituents,as opposed to reading to a teleprompter.
IIRC, the POTUS has had only one press conference. He doesn't go for those unscripted moments.
