Christie: Last six weeks not ‘enjoyable’

The last six weeks have not been the most fun for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), but he vowed Tuesday to not let the bridge scandal derail his second term.

Speaking at the Economic Club of Chicago, the potential 2016 presidential candidate also vowed he would make public an internal review his administration is conducting.

“While the last six weeks have not been the most enjoyable of my life, the fact is we have to do our work,” he said, according to reports.

If there are further steps he needs to take, he said he would comply. But voters would not tolerate the distraction, he added.

Christie made the remarks during a question and answer with Greg Brown, Motorola Solutions CEO. He is slated to raise money as head of the Republican Governors’ Association while in the city.

During the talk, he also vowed to not let the scandal distract from that role. The group announced Tuesday it brought in a record breaking haul of $6 million amid the scandal in January.
