#1 Imus later joked that even though many of New Jersey voters are overweight, Christie should be setting a better example. "I am setting an example Don," Christie responded. "We have to spur our economy. Dunkin Donuts, International House of Pancakes, those people need to work too."

Self-depricating humor that Corzygote would never understand.

Since I saw elsewhere Corzine is dying the hair he has left, I imagine the Christie campaign is struggling with a way to not-comment, but at the same time reply in kind...

#2 "Let me have men about me that are fat;
Sleek-headed men and such as sleep o' nights:
Yond Cassius has a lean and hungry look;
He thinks too much: such men are dangerous."
Julius Caesar by Shakespeare.

#3 I started watching Imus on Fox Biz Network in the AM before leaving for work and caught this interview. Christie came across as a bright personable self-deprecating guy. Everything Corzine is not. He helped himself with the mocking and Imus played along.
