Stewart Mocks Christie’s Defense on Why N.J. Thinks He’d Suck at Being Pres.
KELLY [video]: "The polls in New Jersey right now say by a 65% to 29% margin, the New Jersey voters say you would not make a good president."
STEWART: "And let me remind you, those people live in New Jersey. So their expectations for good governance is always already just bottom bar, incredibly. 65% of residents of Christie's home state think he would suck as president. Let's hear some straight talk from Christie about what that means."
CHRISTIE [video]: "A lot of those people, that 65% want me to stay and I heard that from lots of people in Town Hall meetings, don't leave to run for president because we want to you stay."
STEWART: "That is the saddest thing I have ever heard. No, they think I would be great, they don't want me to leave-- no, she said she broke up with me because I'm too good for her. That's why. She said I deserved someone better. That's why. Her words, not mine. She was all-- I'm not [bleep}ing your friend because I want to. It's-- here's your real problem, governor. Let's do some straight talk. I'm going to miss this a little bit. All right. It's not that New Jersians love you too much to let you go, it's that you've already finished second in the loud northeastern ego maniac primary."
