The October Surprise

Nobody could have predicted the election season would go out in a fury.

It is certainly making for strange political bedfellows:

In an interview on NBC, Christie called Obama “outstanding” for expediting relief efforts. He also told MSNBC that Obama “deserves great credit.”

“He gave me his number at the White House and told me to call him if I needed anything,” Christie said.


The New Jersey governor even took his message to Fox News, saying that Obama had helped “tremendously.”

Meanwhile, Romney is continuing to campaign despite the storm, but he is trying to dress up his campaigning as some kind of "relief" effort.

What choice does he really have? The campaign is for all intents and purposes over with.
