BATON ROUGE, La. – New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie warned a small crowd gathered Thursday evening in a hangar at the Baton Rouge Airport that he would be “watching from New Jersey” for voters to re-elect Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal this fall.
But working the rope line after the event, the New Jersey Republican ignored multiple questions from reporters about a potential bid for the White House, the subject of much speculation after his speech Tuesday at the Reagan presidential library in California.
Still, on Thursday, Christie did more than simply voice his support for the governor of the Bayou State. “If it were, you know, up to Bobby and I, we could focus all our time right here in our own states here in Louisiana and New Jersey,” Christie said. “But we can’t do that, because America needs to get better too.”
And at times he sounded like some of the Republicans now on the presidential campaign trail. “If you’re looking for leadership in America, you know you’re not going to find it in the Oval Office,” he said.
The event was billed as welcome rally for Christie – who later in the evening joined Jindal again for a fundraiser at a private home, with tickets going for as much as $100,000.
At the airport, Christie ended with a warning to Louisiana voters.
He said, “I expect a huge win for Bobby Jindal on election night, and if I don’t get it, if I don’t get it, you don't want me coming back here with a little Jersey attitude on me. You’re going to have a problem if that happens."

LOL, okay you cracked me up with that one! I can still remember singing that as a kid! That was cute.
New Jersey & Louisiana... two of the most politically corrupt statues in the Union.
It's no wonder Christie is supporting Jindal. They're two peas in a pod, those two are.
As for Christie's chances at getting into the W.H., he'll never win the Republican nomination, so don't sweat him. He's got WAY too many skeletons in his closets.
Christie and Jindal sittin' in a tree... K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes Jindal and a baby carriage...

Jindall, same things. Im just really not impressed at all. They need to keep lookin. Course I guess they dont care one way or the other whether Im impressed or not.... Oh well!
Personally I dont think Christie would get very far. I think teapartiers would like him cause he is rude and crude and to the point, all the very same reasons no one else would vote for him. I dont care for him at all, again another reason for the teaparty to love him. He is very very round isnt he? Ew, not a great image of America. Then again maybe it is these days. Im still saying Romney has the best chance and thats not a great one either. Im stocking up on popcorn.
