Chris Christie Says Rand Paul is 'Dangerous'
Not a fan of the 'libertarian' strain in both parties
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is ripping libertarians - including Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.). - for challenging government surveillance programs and failing to understand the dangers of terrorism.
"This strain of libertarianism that's going through parties right now and making big headlines I think is a very dangerous thought," the New Jersey governor said on Thursday at a Republican governors forum in Aspen, Colo. "You can name any number of people and (Paul is) one of them."

Christie just went down a few notches in my list.
What's dangerous is Christie's triglycerides.
