Watch Chris Christie unload on Marco Rubio in NH debate (video)

Chris Christie’s contempt for Marco Rubio was put on full display in the New Jersey Governor’s big moment on the debate stage on Saturday night in Manchester, four days before the New Hampshire primary.

Christie blasted Rubio for never having made a “consequential decision,” and simply not prepared to lead the nation.

“I like Marco Rubio, and he’s a smart person and a good guy, but he simply does not have the experience to be president of the United States and make these decisions,” Christie said.

And that was just the beginning. Let’s just say that nobody is writing that Marco Rubio won this debate.
