Anyone even hinting at running for President has his or her character attacked. Once again, Governor Chris Christie of New Jersey is being painted as a bully.

First: Bridge-ghazi. Next: claims that the Governor withheld hurricane relief funds from Democratic mayors.  Now, Olympian Carl Lewis has accused the Governor of threatening, “I’m going to come after you,” when the gold medalist announced he was running for a state senate seat in 2011. Governor Christie “going after” an Olympic sprinter? Obviously that’s figurative!

Speaking of people hinting about running for President, I have a friend who grew up in Chicago next door to Hillary Roddam. When they were 9, Hillary hit my friend with a rock.

True story!

Accusing Hillary of literally throwing stones with the best of them and claiming Christie is a bully is my point. Americans vet presidential candidates by ad hominem attacks, not by discussing the issues.

I’m E. Curtis Johnson. I think Hillary’s greatest negative is that big ass, but there isn’t time to talk about Bill Clinton right now.
