Has Chris Christie become the GOP's potential scapegoat?

I guess, even when the state of which one is Governor has been struck by a hurricane, a Republican Governor is still not to cooperate with a Democratic President for the benefit of his or her people. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has run into this very problem. Jersey was struck by Hurricane Sandy and for the benefit of citizens in the state, the Republican Governor worked with President Obama and even complimented the president on the work he's done with regard to the devastating hurricane. What has been the reaction of many Republican talking heads? They've more or less thrown Christie under the bus - some even going so far as to insinuate that if Obama wins the election on Tuesday, Christie may be to blame.

Rupert Murdoch of Fox "News" tweeted the following, "Thanks Bloomberg right decision. @Now Christie, while thanking O, must re-declare for Romney, or take blame for next four dire years."

Seriously? Chris Christie was the keynote speaker on behalf of Mitt Romney at the Republican National Convention. He's been one of Romney's biggest supporters throughout election season. Now, in light of his state getting struck by Hurricane Sandy, his cooperating with President Obama and complimenting him on the work he's done, he must "re-declare for Romney, or take blame for next four dire years"? Fricking pathetic! I'm not a big fan of Chris Christie's politics, but give the guy a fricking break. What was he supposed to do? Not ask for government help? With so much damage done to the state of New Jersey, with so many people void of power, was he just supposed to ignore that? It's really amazing that people like Murdoch (I hesitate to call him a "person") would rather United States' citizens suffer following a natural disaster like Hurricane Sandy so that a Democratic President is placed in a poorer light and the Republican nominee isn't hindered in his/her chances of winning the election due to the president showcasing solid leadership during such a difficult time. It's times like these when people should place politics to the side and come together. People like Murdoch are a disgrace and I hope Governor Christie doesn't feel the need to "re-declare" his support for Romney. He's done that on numerous occasions. He's made it fully known that he supports the former Massachusetts Governor. The guy has more important things to worry about right now - the health and safety of the people whom reside in the state of New Jersey. What Murdoch should do is utter a sincere apology to Christie, the people of New Jersey and the people of every state effected by Hurricane Sandy. Murdoch's tweet was beyond selfish and although nothing may be more important to the guy than money, I have news for him - he's wrong. A dollar sign cannot be placed upon a person's life and close to 100 U.S. citizens' lives have been lost due to this wretched storm.
