At the Sun-Times Chad Merda reports that New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie has offered Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel some good advice:
“I absolutely think that what would be smart for the mayor to do is get out there in front of the Chicago press corps and the national press corps and answer every question just like I did for an hour and 50 minutes until they have no questions left,†Christie said. “And that’s where you start to regain the trust of the people that you represent.â€
I’m dusting off my roll of shiny new dimes to bet that Mayor Emanuel won’t take it. So far what he’s done has been to try to deflect criticism and so far it hasn’t worked.
Christie’s approval rating is 30% in Jersey. Nobody believed a word he said.
That’s an Onion piece, right?
