NJ Senate President Stephen Sweeney had a bad week. He's not happy with Governor Christie.

"This is all about him being a bully and a punk," he said in an interview Friday. "I wanted to punch him in his head."

"You know who he reminds me of?" Sweeney says. "Mr. Potter from ‘It’s a Wonderful Life,’ the mean old bastard who screws everybody."

"Last night I couldn’t calm down," Sweeney said. "To prove a point to me — a guy who has stood side by side with him, and made tough decisions — for him to punish people to prove his political point? He’s just a rotten bastard to do what he did."
