Chris Christie vs. the world (or, at least, Democratic governors)

Chris Christie likes to mix it up; this much we know.
But increasingly, the pugilistic New Jersey governor isn’t just going at it with reporters or hecklers, but also with fellow governors. And in a way that governors historically have avoided.

Christie has also spent time this year engaging with Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy (D) and Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley (D), meaning he has now gone at it with 15 percent of the Democratic governors in this country. (Math!)
