New Jersey Governor Christie has new political pressures on his back, which could make him lose weight, sleep, or perhaps the opportunity to run for president over the next few months.

He previously boasted from his bully pulpit that bipartisan reforms in NJ would save New Jersey’s pension system from bankruptcy. However, a judge has ruled that the good governor violated the law. Superior Court Judge MC Jacobson has dealt a stinging rebuke of Christie’s smooth moves, and empty promises which reneged on the landmark deasl he once bragged about.
