Christie Has a Romney Problem

Boston Globe: “Like Mitt Romney, Chris Christie is a blue-state governor in a Republican presidential primary. In choosing to adjust to meet the expectations of a more conservative audience, at a time when polls say voters crave authenticity, he has opened himself to attacks [that] he lacks core convictions. … Christie once supported national education standards, he’s now against them. After backing a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants, now he’s opposed.”

The New York Times notes Christie has overhauled “his policies to match a rhetorical swerve toward the pro-gun right.”
