Chris Christie, Cory Booker Co-Star in YouTube Video
Who says public officials don't have a sense of humor? New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (a Republican) and Newark Mayor Cory Booker (a Democrat) teamed up for a video presented at the New Jersey Press Association's Legislative Correspondents Club Show.
They send up Booker's reputation as a folk hero after he saved a neighbor during a house fire this April and the vice presidential rumors that have followed Christie during the 2012 election cycle. The two have a well-documented relationship, despite partisan differences, as detailed in this New York Times profile from October 2010.
