Photo Catches Christie About to Hug Hillary in NH

MANCHESTER, N.H. — Chris Christie may have embraced trouble for himself. A Marco Rubio supporter tweeted a photo Monday of the New Jersey governor appearing to hug Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on CNN’s “State of the Union” set in New Hampshire.

oped: Sorry Chris but active military Special Op's as well as Veterans cringed watching you hug the #Benghazi Killer akin to when you hugged Barry Barack Hussein Obama.

By Joe Schaeffer  
Republican presidential candidate Chris Christie has been a strong critic of Hillary Clinton, but a photo posted to Twitter Monday appears to show him about to give the Democratic candidate a hearty hug in New Hampshire.

The Daily Caller reports a Marco Rubio supporter posted the photo of the two meeting on the set of CNN's "State of the Union," where they each made an appearance on the Feb. 7 edition of the Sunday talk show.

The Daily Caller's Kerry Picket notes the photo contradicts the Christie campaign's representation of the meeting between the two in a tweet as "a tension-filled foreshadowing of what to expect" from a Christie-Clinton duel for the White House.

Last Wednesday, Christie declared that he was the man to take Clinton down in a general election, saying he would "beat her rear end," CNN reports.

Special:

"You know the last person she wants to see on that stage in September? You're looking at him," Christie told an audience in Lebanon, New Hampshire.
