Now that Super-Storm Sandy is over, Christie has renounced all vestige of huggy-huggy, smoochie-smoochie and is back to his bilious self, railing against the guy who got him out of a jam.
When you belong to The Party of Stupid, you play dumb.
(Historical Note: Republican Governor Bobby Jindal coined the phrase "stupid party." Said Jindal: "I'm serious! It's time for a new Republican Party that talks like adults" rather than a party that "provides 30 second ideas." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8kwxlHf0cE)

The Republicans already won on the CR — in one graph
One thing that's gotten lost in the debate over the shutdown is how much Democrats have already conceded to Republicans on spending. This is partly the consequence of the direct spending cuts in the 2011 debt-ceiling deal and partly the consequence of sequestration (which was, of course, also part of the 2011 deal). Still, the bottom line is that Republicans have been so successful at making Obamacare concessions the issue that Democratic concessions on spending have gone almost unnoticed.
