In President Barack Obama and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie we could be witnessing the oddest political couple since LBJ and anyone named Kennedy. Maybe opposites do attract, but black-white, slender-fat, reserved-brash, Democrat-Republican? Behind closed doors, however, there might just be the ultimate empathy. A Democratic president who will never please true-believing liberals and a GOP presidential wannabe who is too moderate for Tea Partiers and seemingly traitorous about his ultimate political chum.
So, who better to share this ironic respite from political dysfunction and partisan demonization than these differently similar Washington- and Trenton-based CEOs of polar-opposite parties?
