The Hill Reports: He came to New Hampshire to help Mitt Romney conclude his argument that he offers the most hope to a beleaguered nation, but for Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.), the emotion of the day was anger.
Playing bad cop to Romney’s happy warrior as Romney fended off escalating attacks from his Republican rivals, Christie said the real target was President Obama who he called the most pessimistic man to ever occupy the Oval Office.
“You listen to him, he sounds angry. I have a little suggestion for the president: He doesn’t do angry well,” said the man who has built a national brand out of his brash and straight-talking approach to public leadership.
Calling Obama’s reelection strategy a cynical ploy playing on rightful American anger over a less-than-desirable economic outlook, Christie said Obama wanted Americans to be angry at anyone but himself.
