NEW JERSEY DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE

Chairman Wisniewski Called It

(Trenton)- Earlier today, Assemblyman John Wisniewski, Chairman of the New Jersey Democratic State Committee, held a press conference with Congressman Rush Holt and a press conference call with Senator Frank Lautenberg to preview Governor Christie's RNC keynote and tell the real New Jersey story.  Chairman Wisniewski's remarks during the end of each proved that he knows Governor Christie well.  Below are the remarks, given by Chairman Wisniewski, predicting that Christie would selfishly make this keynote about Chris Christie:
"Christie will take the stage in Tampa to speak about his very favorite topic: himself. 
We all know that's what his months of travel out of state for Republican candidates have been about- promoting himself on a national stage.
Doesn’t this make you wonder- Why did they pick this guy to give the keynote?
We’ve heard for months now that Mitt Romney needed to select his Vice Presidential candidate carefully, because Mitt is so uncharismatic that he couldn’t choose someone who would overshadow him. 
With these concerns, you’d think the campaign might have taken a pass on a keynote speaker who has made it clear that this speech isn’t about Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, or the Republican Party, but about Chris Christie.

Just as we said when this was first announced, Christie was clearly the wrong choice for the RNC keynote address, just as Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan are the wrong choice for America."
