"FacebookPinterest\n\nNew Jersey governor and God of Tri-State Bridge-and-Tunnel Network hopeful Chris Christie taught us a valuable lesson yesterday while visiting a Boys &amp;amp; Girls Club in Newark: when the chips are down, pick on someone smaller than you. During the tour of the newly renovated club, Christie found Ivan Fradkin, a 13-year-old Newark resident/easy mark, and promptly challenged him to a no-holds-barred game of ping-pong\u2014to the death (we haven\u2019t confirmed this last part, but we can only assume). Thankfully the Star-Ledger was on hand to give us video documentation of the gladiatorial carnage. The grudge match lasted a full nail-biting three minutes, ending in a display of raw power by Christie, who wrong footed his pubescent opponent deep into the corner, eliciting from him an unforced error to end the game. When it was all over and the dust had settled, Christie approached center court to leave his vanquished foe with one last mental barb to remember him by: &amp;quot;That\u2019s it brother. Thanks for playing.&amp;quot; Chilling stuff. There was also something or other mentioned about youth foundations and money being raised for charity, but let\u2019s not kid ourselves. This was nothing less than a raw display of unharnessed gubernatorial power. In the words of P.B. Shelley, &amp;quot;Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
