Christie and political foe make up over breakfast

Isn’t it nice when enemies shake hands and stop feuding — especially when bacon is involved?

Former New Jersey Gov. Tom Kean and current Gov. Chris Christie fell out badly when Christie backed an unsuccessful post-election effort to oust Sen. Tom Kean Jr. as the New Jersey state Senate majority leader.

Gov. Kean emerged as one of Christie’s harshest critics in the Bridgegate matter and then told Politico he would not necessarily back Christie, his protégé, in a 2016 presidential bid.

The two governors met for a peace-making breakfast recently and Kean told intimates Christie “came as close to apologizing as he ever comes” for his effort to oust Kean Jr.
