How did New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie handle Hurricane Sandy?

“I’m a Democrat, and [I] don’t agree with Christie on all issues. But I think he did a great job in response to Sandy. He really got down and dirty among the wreckage. I was impressed with his personal one-on-one interactions with the victims.”

“I give him credit for reaching out to Obama. The storm affected all of us. We’re all in the same boat. Politics shouldn’t matter at a time like this. Gov. Christie stepped up to the plate and showed leadership.”

“He could have been better prepared. But that’s true for all mayors along the East Coast. We have old cities along the East Coast. The infrastructure is decaying. When a big storm hits, we’re pretty much devastated. I’m just glad Philly was spared this time. But it’s a huge wakeup call for Mayor Nutter to make improvements.”“He could have been better prepared.

“He was a little harsh with the mayor of Atlantic City and the people who didn’t evacuate. There could have been a better way to deal with that without being so harsh. They had just been devastated, and he was criticizing them. He should have gotten everything on the mend before publicly evaluating what went wrong.”
