Christie Plans Ambitious Year

“A dominant re-election victory in hand, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) is pursuing a path to bolster his resume as a get-it-done Republican leader and to broaden a national network of political allies,” the AP reports.

“This aggressive course is designed to strengthen his appeal as he considers whether to run for president in 2016… Christie’s advisers suggest he has a one-year window to stack up more accomplishments before lame-duck status — and a prospective White House campaign — interfere.”
