DescriptionOne of state Sen. Richard Codey's closest allies appeared on Channel 12 today to stoke speculation that the former governor will seek the top office in 2013, and to express outrage anew over what Assemblyman John McKeon called Gov. Chris Christie’s “vindictiveness and mean-spiritedness.”

“Maybe this is the first salvo of the 2014 gubernatorial race, Codey verse Christie,” McKeon (D-Essex) said on the six-minute TV spot.

The fight started last week when Christie accused Codey and other Essex County senators of blocking confirmation of his education secretary. Codey (D-Essex) said the governor was mistaken; he had signed off on the appointment nearly a year ago. Days later the Christie administration pulled Codey’s security detail and fired a close friend and his cousin.
