#4  Yeah, this smells bad. Punish your enemies, reward your friends.

Menendez, knowningly corrupt by everyone for a long time, did just defy the call for a meh response to Netenyahu's visit, he went before AIPAC with a firey speech calling out the chain and file democrats.

Christie, well he gets to do something presidential as everyone breathlessly awaits his appointment.

#3  Mr. Christie will make an appointment based purely on political metrics. Won't get happy quite yet.

#2  ...IIRC, Menendez has been known to be crooked for a long, looooong time, so there's that. Too, this means Christie gets to appoint a senator, which makes taking back the Senate just that much harder in '16. I think this one is just happy circumstance.
