As a resident of NJ, I can assure you that Chris Christie is no conservative. He appointed a rabidly anti-gun liberal Attorney General, Paula Dow, who has in the past 10 months removed CMP direct sales, added the new Auto Ordinance M1 Carbine to our AWB list, and banned the new I.O. AK clone (

He isn’t all bad. It’s entertaining to watch Christie take on the unions, especially the teachers’ union, the NJEA (New Jersey Extortion Association, er, I mean, Education Association), and he’s definitely better than Jon “One Gun A Month” Corzine would have been. Unfortunately for Christie, the rest of the country will figure out that he’s just a RINO.
