Governor Chris Christie has come out and condemned the House of Representatives, and especially its leader John Boehner. A brave move considering they’re both Republicans.
The truth is that party politics rarely works as well as it should do. It means the people are given a very narrow choice, and that the good of the party often supersedes everything else.
In countries where there are more than just two main parties hung parliaments and coalition governments are more common, and these lead to people being forced to work together for the greater good of the people they work for.
Chris Christie should be held up as an example of what a politician should be like; working for the people that he’s paid to govern, regardless of whether they voted for him or not.
