Chris Christie admitted on his monthly radio show Tuesday that running against JEB! would not be an easy thing for him to do.
Asked if it would be fun or stressful to battle the former Florida governor and Bush Crown Prince, Christie explained that he is a close friend of the Bush family. He helped raise money for George W. Bush's presidential victory in 2000, and then Bush appointed Christie the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey a year later.
"It’d be stressful because I consider Jeb a friend,” Christie said. "And he’s been a wonderful friend to me, especially during Sandy and the aftermath. You like to run against people that you don’t like, not run against people that you do like and respect."
Christie might as well paraphrase Marlene Dietrich: "Falling in Line Again, never wanted to, but what am I to do? I can't help it. Donors cluster to him like moths around a flame..."
