Video: Chris Christie's Trailer For NJ State Of State Address

2012_01_chirstievideo.jpg

Last week, NJ Governor Chris Christie postponed his State of the State address after a GOP leader and friend died at the Statehouse. Now, he's ready to give his speech at 3 p.m. (you can see it live here), and he's been trying to get people (well, political reporters) excited by sharing his movie trailer about the "Jersey Comeback" which is less amusing than Mayor Bloomberg's State of the City video but possibly as surreal:

In the video, Christie touts, "Leadership is not about fear. Leadership is about commitment. Leadership is about telling the truth and leadership is about getting things done," and "If we did the really tough things we need to do we are going to be able to start cutting taxes." However, some of his honesty did not make the final cut.

More recently, Christie has been talking about stealing doughnuts and how dangerous Obama is and appearing at campaign events for his BFF Mitt Romney.

    If Obama made a video like that, we'd never hear the end of how great he thinks he is.

    Apparently, some kid fresh out of Vanderbilt created the video.

    I'm still trying to figure out why Gothamist - a New York-focused site - is so damn obsessed with Chris Christie - the Governor of New Jersey.

    If he's saying something relevant to New York (like the new PATH station discussed a while back), then sure! Post! 

    This is pretty Jersey-centric, though.
