Christie lashes 'know-nothing, disgruntled' Romney aides

they seem to be trying to exploit every possible thing they can blame for a Romney defeat, if his election depended on one person or event then he had no game in the first place.
After HuffPo's Jon Ward last night quoted a Mitt Romney campaign source, complaining that Chris Christie hadn't taken time to come to their rally in Pennsylvania, about 20 miles from the Trenton statehouse, on Sunday night, a Christie source told me that Romney had been personally told shortly after the storm that Christie couldn't travel because of the devastation in his state.
And this morning, Christie made that clear, via HuffPo:
"I told Gov. Romney at that time that if the storm landed as predicted that it was going to be catastrophic to New Jersey and unprecedented," Christie said. "I said to him, 'Listen, Mitt, if this storm hits the way I think it's going to, I'm off the campaign trail from here to Election Day.' And he said to me, 'Chris, of course. Do your job, don't worry about me. I'll take care of things.' So all this other noise, I think, is coming from know-nothing, disgruntled Romney staffers who, you know, don't like the fact that I said nice things about the president of the United States. Well, that's too bad for them."
"He told me last Sunday night that he expected no other political travel or help from me over the course of the remaining time between then and the election, if in fact the storm hit the way it was projected," Christie continued. "If it missed us, I would have been happy to go out on the road and help him. But it didn't."
 this another jump the gun effort by the right, have the "reason why" already prepared when your boy goes down. not sounding as pumped as they do i the media. that's really to keep their base thinking they are voting for a winner, why not they've fooled them about everything else.
