REUTERS/Brian Snyder (UNITED STATES - Tags: POLITICS) (Brian Snyder/Reuters)New Jersey governor and designated Republican Bully of the Year Chris Christie was a no-show at a House Republican Conference meeting Wednesday, according to reports.

Christie was slated to rile up GOP lawmakers ahead of the November election - a role he has filled before.

But with the Republicans going unriled by Christie, they might not fully maximize their asshole skills. Luckily for their party, some of them brushed up on their sneering skills with Dick Cheney on Tuesday.

Supposedly Christie was running late because he was stuck at a Romney fundraiser, but I'm betting he bailed when he heard his limo might not be able to take him all the way up to the door of the meeting.
