Chris Christie

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie blasted the NRA for an ad mentioning President Obama's daughters, calling it "reprehensible." "I think it's awful to bring public figures' children into the political debate. They don't deserve to be there," the Republican said at a Trenton news conference. "For any of us who are public figures, you see that kind of ad and you cringe."

White House calls NRA video repugnant, cowardly

The White House says a National Rifle Association video referencing President Barack Obama's daughters is "repugnant and cowardly."

The video calls Obama an "elitist hypocrite" for having armed Secret Service agents protect his daughters at school while not committing to installing armed guards in all schools.
